Acne scars can affect more than just your skin—they can impact your confidence and self-image long after the breakouts are gone. At VIVE Medical Spa, we specialize in safe, effective treatments to reduce the appearance of acne scars and restore smoother, healthier-looking skin.
Whether your scars are shallow or deep, red or textured, there are modern, non-surgical solutions that can significantly improve their appearance.
Understanding Acne Scars: Why They Form and What They Look Like
Acne scars develop when the skin’s healing process is disrupted by inflammation. Severe or long-lasting acne can damage the deeper layers of the skin, leaving behind visible marks. There are several types of scars:
- Atrophic scars: Small indentations or depressions (e.g., ice pick, boxcar, rolling scars)
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): Flat, dark spots after acne heals
- Hypertrophic or keloid scars: Raised, thickened tissue (less common on the face)
Each type of scar requires a different approach. That’s why an expert assessment is essential before beginning treatment.
Microneedling: Collagen Stimulation from Within
Microneedling is one of the most effective treatments for atrophic acne scars. It uses tiny needles to create controlled micro-injuries in the skin, triggering the body to produce new collagen and elastin.
Over time, this natural healing process smooths out depressions, reduces pore size, and improves overall texture. It’s safe for most skin types and can be customized with PRP (platelet-rich plasma) or specialized serums to boost results.
Patients typically need a series of 3–6 treatments, spaced a few weeks apart, for optimal improvement.
Chemical Peels: Brighten and Resurface the Skin
Chemical peels use acids—such as glycolic, salicylic, or trichloroacetic acid—to exfoliate damaged skin layers and encourage cell renewal. They are particularly effective for:
- Fading dark spots and PIH
- Smoothing mild textural scars
- Improving skin tone and clarity
Peels vary in strength and depth, from light peels with minimal downtime to medium peels that cause flaking and redness for several days. Your provider will choose the right peel based on your skin type and scarring pattern.
Laser Resurfacing: Precision Repair for Deeper Scars
Laser treatments like fractional CO₂ or erbium lasers work by creating microthermal zones in the skin. These stimulate collagen remodeling and remove damaged tissue, leading to visible scar improvement.
Lasers are especially effective for more severe or deep scars, and often require fewer sessions than other treatments. However, they may involve some downtime and are best performed by experienced professionals like those at VIVE Medical Spa.
Additional Options: Fillers, RF Microneedling, and More
Depending on the severity and type of acne scarring, other options may be recommended:
- Dermal fillers: Used to lift depressed scars and even out skin texture
- Radiofrequency microneedling: Combines skin needling with RF energy for deeper collagen induction
- Hydrafacial with boosters: For gentle resurfacing and improved tone and hydration
- LED light therapy: Reduces redness and inflammation, supporting post-treatment healing
Combining multiple treatments often yields the best and most long-lasting results.

Diamond Glow, formerly known as Dermalinfusion, is an advanced skin treatment that combines exfoliation, extraction, and infusion in a single, painless procedure. At VIVE Medical Spa, we offer this innovative treatment to help clients achieve smoother, clearer, and more hydrated skin with minimal downtime. Understanding how Diamond Glow works can help you appreciate why it stands out among facial treatments and why it’s ideal for those seeking comprehensive skin rejuvenation.
Exfoliation: The First Crucial Step
The process begins with exfoliation using a diamond-tipped wand that gently abrades the surface layer of dead skin cells. Unlike traditional scrubs, Diamond Glow’s precise and controlled exfoliation reveals fresher, healthier skin underneath without irritation.
This step smooths rough texture, evens out tone, and prepares your skin to absorb nourishing serums. Removing dead skin also unclogs pores and reduces the likelihood of breakouts, setting the stage for the next phases of treatment.
Extraction: Deep Pore Cleansing Without Discomfort
After exfoliation, Diamond Glow performs gentle yet effective extraction. The same wand uses vacuum technology to suction out impurities, excess oil, and debris lodged in the pores.
This painless extraction cleans deeply without the redness or irritation often associated with manual extractions. The thorough pore cleansing helps reduce blackheads, whiteheads, and acne, promoting a clearer complexion over time.
Infusion: Delivering Customized Nutrients for Lasting Results
The final phase of Diamond Glow infuses your skin with specially formulated serums tailored to your skin type and concerns. Whether you need intense hydration, brightening agents, anti-aging peptides, or calming botanicals, this infusion penetrates deeply to nourish and revitalize your skin.
By combining exfoliation, extraction, and infusion, Diamond Glow maximizes absorption and effectiveness, delivering immediate visible improvements and building long-term skin health.
