What is the best treatment for acne scars in Malaysia?

The best treatment depends on your scar type. Microneedling works for rolling scars, Pico Laser for pigmentation, Fractional CO₂ Laser for deep scars, punch excision for ice-pick scars, and dermal fillers for sunken scars. Many patients benefit from a combination approach.

How many sessions will I need?

Most patients need 3–6 sessions, depending on scar severity, skin type, and chosen treatment. Fillers show immediate results, while lasers and microneedling improve gradually.

Are acne scar treatments painful?

Discomfort is minimal. Numbing cream or local anaesthesia is applied. Lasers may cause mild heat, microneedling slight pressure, and fillers minor stinging.

How soon will I see results?

Fillers show immediate results. Microneedling and Pico Laser show changes after 2–3 sessions. CO₂ Laser and Punch Excision improve within weeks, with continued results for months.

Can acne scars be completely removed?

Complete scar removal is rare, but most patients see 70–90% improvement with the right treatment.

How much does acne scar treatment cost in Malaysia?

Prices vary by treatment and sessions required. Treatments start from RM X per session. Packages are available for patients needing multiple sessions.

Which treatment is best for deep scars?

Ice-pick scars respond best to punch excision, boxcar scars to CO₂ Laser or fillers, and rolling scars to microneedling or subcision with fillers.

Is there downtime after acne scar treatment?

Pico Laser and Microneedling require 1–2 days downtime, CO₂ Laser about 5–7 days, fillers minimal downtime, and punch excision about 1–2 weeks.

Choice of Treatment for Acne Redness (PIE)

After acne heals, some patients are left with persistent red marks instead of scars.

This is called Post-Inflammatory Erythema (PIE) — commonly known as acne redness.

Unlike acne scars (which are changes in skin texture), PIE happens when tiny blood vessels under the skin remain dilated after inflammation.

Before and after post-acne redness (PIE) improvement with ADVATx laser

Dramatic improvement in acne-related redness (PIE) after ADVATx laser treatment, leaving skin tone more even and less inflamed.

Recommended Treatments for Acne Redness (PIE)

Vascular Laser (e.g., ADVATx / Yellow Laser) – targets broken capillaries and redness, restoring even skin tone.
Pico Laser – improves overall skin clarity while helping reduce lingering red marks.
Topical medical creams – may be prescribed for mild redness, but results are slower compared to lasers.

✅ By treating PIE early, you prevent red marks from becoming long-lasting pigmentation issues.
