Skin Resurfacing for Acne Scars and Open Pores
Getting smoother skin involves rebuilding your collagen foundation, not relying on quick fixes. I use evidence-based resurfacing techniques to address deep acne scars, enlarged pores, and uneven texture safely.
If you are dealing with acne scars, it is important to know there are multiple effective solutions. In this video, I walk through the different approaches I use, including lasers, subcision, and fillers, to create a customized treatment plan for your specific type of scarring.
To enhance the results of a CO2 laser treatment, I often combine it with Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) therapy. This video shows the process, where we use your own blood's growth factors to accelerate healing and boost collagen production for even better skin rejuvenation.
Microneedling Radiofrequency, or MNRF, is a powerful procedure for improving skin texture. It helps reduce pores, acne scars, and even stretch marks by delivering targeted energy deep into the skin to stimulate natural collagen and elastin production.
I use the Fraxis Duo system, which combines a CO2 laser with microneedle fractional radiofrequency. This dual technology allows me to offer highly effective and customized treatments for skin resurfacing and tightening.
The Fraxis Duo is a versatile machine that can address a wide range of concerns on both the face and body. It is excellent for improving skin tone and texture, reducing scars and stretch marks, and even treating conditions like Keratosis Pilaris.

About Skin Resurfacing for Scars, Pores & Texture
If you are considering Fractional CO2 laser resurfacing, keep in mind that this is not a lunch-time procedure. It requires five to seven days of downtime for your skin to heal and renew. I always walk you through this recovery phase beforehand, because managing the healing process is just as vital to the final result as the laser session itself.
Addressing acne scars, uneven texture, or enlarged pores requires a treatment plan tailored to your specific skin type and the depth of the concerns. I do not believe in cookie-cutter approaches; your skin's history and healing capacity guide the choice between two primary resurfacing methods I offer: Fractional CO2 and Microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF).
Fractional CO2 Laser Resurfacing
This is the gold standard for deeper textural issues. I use the Fraxis Duo system to create controlled micro-thermal zones on the skin surface. This process triggers your body's natural collagen production. Because it works deep in the dermis, you should expect redness and crusting for nearly a week. It is highly effective, but it requires patience and adherence to the post-procedure repair balm and sunscreen routine I provide.
Microneedling Radiofrequency (MNRF)
For those who need improvement but cannot commit to the downtime of a CO2 laser, MNRF is a powerful alternative. This technology uses fine needles to deliver radiofrequency energy deep into the skin. It is excellent for skin tightening and smoothing out acne scars. The recovery is significantly faster, often just a day or two of mild redness.
Why Procedure Precision Matters
Regardless of the technology, the success of skin resurfacing depends on the settings used. I perform every procedure personally, ensuring the energy levels and number of passes are safe for your specific concerns. Whether we are treating boxcar or rolling scars, my focus is on helping you understand the 'why' behind each step so you can feel confident in the process.
