What Is Acne & Acne Scarring?

Acne is a skin condition characterized by pore congestion, inflammation, and breakouts, often caused by excess oil production, an unbalanced microbiome, and hormonal changes. When acne penetrates deeper layers of the skin, it can cause permanent damage to collagen and elastin, leading to acne scars. This damage can appear as depressed areas, raised tissue, or lingering discoloration after the skin heals. Acne and scarring can affect individuals of all ages and skin types. Without proper treatment, both conditions can continue to impact skin clarity, texture, and overall confidence.

Signs & Symptoms of Acne & Acne Scarring

  • Active breakouts such as whiteheads, blackheads, or cysts.
  • Red or inflamed areas on the skin.
  • Dark spots or discoloration after acne heals.
  • Indented or pitted areas in the skin.
  • Uneven skin texture or roughness.

What Causes Acne & Acne Scarring?

Excess Oil Production

Overactive oil glands can clog pores, leading to breakouts.
When the microbiome becomes unbalanced, it can lead to excess oil and the production of unwanted bacteria.
Fluctuations in hormone levels can increase oil production and worsen acne.
Interfering with breakouts can increase the risk of scarring.
Deeper inflammation increases the likelihood of permanent texture changes.

How We Treat Acne & Acne Scarring at Vincent Surgical Arts & Medspa

We use a combination of treatments to reduce active acne, stimulate collagen, and improve skin texture for long-term results.

  • CO2 Laser Resurfacing: This treatment removes damaged skin layers while stimulating collagen production, helping reduce acne scars and improve overall texture.
  • Morpheus8: By combining microneedling with radiofrequency energy, this treatment targets deeper layers of the skin to remodel tissue and smooth out scarring.
  • Chemical Peel: Customized blends of Alpha Hydroxy Acids and Beta Hydroxy Acids (AHA & BHA) exfoliate the skin, clearing clogged pores, reducing discoloration, and balancing oil production.
  • Microneedling: This treatment creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate collagen, also known as Collagen Induction Therapy, helping improve the appearance of discoloration and texture.
  • IPL Photofacial: Reduces excess vascularity in the skin to help minimize redness. It also targets inflammation and acne-causing bacteria within the follicle for clearer-looking skin (not recommended for darker skin types).
  • Hydrafacial MD: Deeply cleanses and exfoliates the skin to remove buildup, excess oil, and impurities that can contribute to acne while supporting smoother, healthier-looking skin.
  • Medical-Grade Skincare: Consistent use of medical-grade skincare helps manage breakouts, support the skin barrier, reduce inflammation, and improve the appearance of post-acne discoloration over time.
