The Treatment

Why Scar Revision Is a Protocol, Not a Device

Acne scars come in different shapes — icepick, boxcar, rolling — and each responds to a different technique. The most reliable improvement comes from combining methods over a staged plan.

At Tune, the physician maps your scars and designs a protocol that may include fractional laser resurfacing, microneedling RF, subcision to release tethered scars, focal TCA, and support for any active acne or pigmentation. The mix is chosen for your skin type and scar pattern.

Scar revision improves texture in steps; it rarely erases scars completely, and honest expectations are part of the plan.

The Toolkit

Modalities We Combine

Fractional Laser

Resurfaces and remodels for boxcar and shallow scars.

Microneedling RF

Energy at depth to stimulate collagen with less surface downtime.

Subcision

Releases the tethering bands beneath rolling scars.

Focal TCA / Resurfacing

Targets deep icepick scars point by point.

The physician selects and sequences modalities for your scars.

Precaution

After-Care Notes

Downtime depends on the modalities used — redness, swelling, or peeling can last from a couple of days to a week.
Strict sun protection is essential, especially to avoid post-treatment pigmentation.
Improvement is gradual and cumulative across the plan; scars are softened, not erased.
Tell the physician about a history of cold sores or keloid scarring before treatment.
Active infection or recent isotretinoin use may require postponing certain modalities.

Physician's FAQ

Can acne scars be removed completely?

Honestly, no — scar revision improves texture and makes scars far less noticeable, but it rarely erases them entirely. A staged, combined protocol gives the most meaningful improvement. The physician will set realistic expectations for your specific scars.

How many sessions will I need?

Scar revision is staged over months, typically several sessions combining different modalities, with intervals for healing. The exact plan is built around your scar types at consultation.
