What Are Acne &
Acne Scar Treatments?
Acne and acne scar treatments encompass a range of options designed to target both active breakouts and the textural irregularities left by previous acne. Our approach combines laser technology, microneedling, advanced chemical peels, and pharmaceutical-grade skincare to address the multiple layers of acne-related concerns. Each treatment protocol is meticulously customized based on your skin type, acne severity, scar classification, and aesthetic goals, ensuring optimal results while maintaining the highest standards of safety and comfort.
Our comprehensive treatment portfolio includes revolutionary drug-free laser technology from AviClear™ for active acne suppression. AviClear™ is the only FDA-cleared energy device specifically designed to target the root cause of acne. This technology selectively targets and suppresses sebaceous glands, dramatically reducing oil production without the need for prescription medications or harsh topicals.
Other modalities offered are:
- SkinPen®—Collagen remodeling and scar improvement

- BBL™ ForeverClear—Targeted acne bacteria elimination
- PicoWay® Resolve—Precise scar resurfacing

Frequently Asked Questions
Results vary depending on the treatment modality and individual skin response. With treatments like Morpheus8 RF microneedling and PicoWay® Resolve, initial improvements may be visible within 2-4 weeks, with continued enhancement over 3-6 months as collagen remodeling occurs. AviClear™ patients typically begin seeing acne reduction after the second treatment, with optimal results achieved 3-4 months after the final session. Our team provides detailed timelines during your consultation based on your specific treatment plan.
Yes, our advanced treatment portfolio is designed to accommodate all skin types and tones safely. Technologies like PicoWay® Resolve and AviClear™ are specifically engineered for universal skin compatibility, while our experienced team customizes treatment parameters to ensure optimal results regardless of your skin characteristics. During your consultation, we'll assess your skin type and concerns to recommend the most appropriate treatment approach.
Active acne treatment focuses on reducing current breakouts and preventing future ones, utilizing treatments like AviClear™, BBL™ ForeverClear, and medical-grade skincare protocols. Acne scar treatment addresses the textural damage left by previous breakouts, employing resurfacing technologies like CO2 laser, Morpheus8 RF microneedling, Sublative RF, and PicoWay® Resolve to stimulate collagen remodeling and skin regeneration. Many clients benefit from combination approaches that address both concerns simultaneously.
Treatment frequency varies based on your specific concerns and chosen modalities. AviClear™ typically requires 3 sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart. Microneedling treatments (SkinPen® or Morpheus8) generally involve 3-4 sessions in 4-6 week intervals. CO2 laser resurfacing may achieve dramatic results in a single comprehensive treatment. During your consultation, Dr. Howell and our team will develop a personalized treatment timeline that aligns with your goals and lifestyle requirements.
Treatment experience varies by modality, but our team prioritizes comfort throughout every procedure. AviClear™ treatments involve minimal discomfort with no downtime, allowing immediate return to daily activities. Microneedling procedures may cause mild redness for 24-48 hours, while CO2 laser resurfacing requires 5-7 days of healing with more dramatic results. We provide comprehensive pre- and post-treatment care instructions, medical-grade skincare products, and ongoing support to optimize your healing and results.
The longevity of results depends on the treatment approach and individual skin factors. AviClear™ provides long-term acne suppression by permanently reducing sebaceous gland activity, though maintenance treatments may be beneficial for some patients. Scar treatments create permanent structural improvements, but new acne can potentially create additional scarring if not properly managed. We develop comprehensive maintenance protocols including medical-grade skincare regimens, periodic touch-up treatments, and lifestyle recommendations to preserve your investment in clearer, healthier skin.
