Acne Scar Treatment


Type of Scarring Approximate Cost
Deeper Scars $300-$700 per cubic centimeter for collagen. Price can vary. (results are temporary so it must be repeated)*

*Prices are approximate and may varying according to your doctor or skin practitioner.

WHAT IS AUGMENTATION?

Collagen, which is often used, is injected under the scar to bring it to surface level (may follow subcision). The patients own fat is also sometimes used. Other appropriate materials are currently being investigated.

Collagen injections are temporary, and last about 6 months give or take a few months.
Whereas many acne scar treatments are temporary, augmentation may prove to be a more permanent solution in the future, and the search for the best material for the job continues.

 

RECOVERY TIME

There is usually no recovery time. You can carry on with your normal daily routine immediately.
