What Causes Acne Scars?
If you’re wondering what causes acne scars, the answer lies in how your skin responds to inflammation. When acne penetrates deeply into the skin, it can damage the underlying tissue. Your body attempts to heal the wound by producing collagen, but if too little or too much collagen is produced, a scar can form. Acne scars are most common in people who have:
- Moderate to severe inflammatory acne (such as cysts and nodules)
- A habit of picking or squeezing blemishes
- A genetic predisposition to scarring
- Delayed or insufficient acne treatment
These scars can take many forms, from deep pits to raised bumps or discoloured marks.

Types of Acne Scars
Treatment Available
At Queensland Skin and Laser, we offer a comprehensive range of acne scar treatments in Brisbane using the latest medical technology. All treatments are performed or overseen by our experienced team, with customised care plans based on your skin’s specific needs.
This non-ablative laser works beneath the surface to reduce acne scars. By creating controlled micro-injuries, it stimulates collagen production while leaving surrounding tissue intact, promoting gradual, natural-looking rejuvenation over a series of treatments.
This minimally invasive treatment uses tiny needles and radiofrequency energy to tighten the skin and stimulate new collagen. It’s ideal for deeper scarring and fine lines.
LED light therapy promotes healing, reduces redness, and can be used alongside other treatments to enhance results and reduce inflammation.
Our team will often combine several techniques for optimal results.
Mild Acne Scarring Treatment Plan
A targeted program for mild acne scarring that helps restore skin texture and smoothness. Using advanced treatments, this plan gradually refines the skin’s surface, improving appearance and boosting confidence.
Intense Acne Scarring Treatment Plan
A comprehensive program for more severe acne scarring, designed to significantly improve skin texture and resilience. Through a carefully structured course of advanced treatments, this plan delivers transformative results over time.
Preventing Acne Scars
Preventing acne scars starts with early, effective acne treatment and gentle skin care. The key is to reduce inflammation and avoid trauma to the skin. Here are a few tips:
- Treat acne early: The longer acne remains untreated, the higher the risk of scarring.
- Avoid picking or squeezing: This can push inflammation deeper and damage the skin’s structure.
- Use non-comedogenic skincare: Choose products that won’t clog pores and worsen breakouts.
- Protect your skin from the sun: UV exposure can darken scars and slow healing—use SPF daily.
- See a professional: If your acne is persistent or severe, medical treatment can reduce the risk of long-term scarring.

Frequently Asked Questions
acne scars treatment
What do acne scars look like?
Acne scars can appear as indented marks (ice pick, boxcar, or rolling scars), raised lumps (keloid or hypertrophic scars), or dark spots (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation). Everyone’s skin heals differently, which is why we customise each acne scars treatment plan. Our Brisbane medical cosmetic clinic offers LED light treatment, RF microneedling therapy, and more—guided by Dr Mark Chernoff and our experienced team. Book a consult to explore your options.
How can I get rid of acne scars?
Effective acne scars treatment often combines techniques like fractional laser, microneedling, or medical peels to improve skin texture and tone. Results depend on scar type and depth, but real improvement is possible with a professional approach. At Queensland Skin & Laser, we create a non-surgical treatment plan tailored to your skin. Book a free phone consultation or visit our Brisbane clinic for a full assessment with our doctor.
How long does it take for acne scars to fade?
Fading depends on scar severity, your skin’s healing ability, and the treatment used. Surface pigmentation may improve within weeks, while deeper scars may take several months and multiple sessions. Our Brisbane cosmetic clinic uses evidence-based methods to speed up results and support skin regeneration. To find the best treatment timeline for your skin, book an in-person consultation with Queensland Skin & Laser’s experienced team.
Is laser treatment effective for acne scars?
Yes—laser treatment for acne scars is highly effective for smoothing indented scars and improving overall texture. We use advanced fractional lasers that stimulate collagen and target damaged tissue. Results build over time, with minimal downtime. Our doctors assess your skin and recommend the safest, most effective laser settings for your needs. See our before and after photos or book a free 15-minute phone consultation to learn how laser can work for you.
How soon can I see results from acne scars treatment?
Many clients begin noticing improvement within a few weeks—especially with treatments like laser or microneedling—but best results develop gradually over several months. Each session builds on the last, stimulating collagen and smoothing skin texture. At Queensland Skin & Laser, we set realistic expectations and track your progress closely. Look through before and after photos or book your free phone consultation or visit our Brisbane clinic to learn what results you can expect.
