Acne Scars in Portland & Lake Oswego
Often when acne makes an appearance, acne scarring comes along with it. When acne breakouts penetrate the skin, it damages the skin and tissue beneath it. As the breakout begins to heal, the body tries to repair the damage left behind. At In My Own Skin Med Spa, we offer services and Medical Grade skincare that may help correct acne scars.

Treatment Options
Chemical Peels
Chemical peels help reduce acne scars by exfoliating the outer layers of skin, encouraging new skin cell growth and smoother texture. They can fade hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone, making scars less noticeable.

SecretRF Microneedling
SecretRF microneedling is effective for acne scars because it combines microneedling with radiofrequency energy to deeply stimulate collagen and elastin production. The RF energy targets deeper skin layers, helping to remodel scar tissue and improve skin texture. This dual-action approach delivers more noticeable improvements in scar appearance, while being safe for most skin types.

SkinPen Microneedling with PRP
SkinPen microneedling with PRP is beneficial for acne scars by creating controlled micro-injuries in the skin, which boosts collagen and elastin production for smoother, firmer skin. PRP (platelet-rich plasma) enhances this process, accelerating healing and further reducing scar visibility by delivering growth factors that improve skin tone and texture. This combination treatment often yields faster, more dramatic results than microneedling alone.
