Surgical Therapy - This form of acne scar treatment uses a motorized blade, which usually contains diamond particles. Diamonds are extremely strong abrasives when in a powder-form. A scab will form once the procedure is completed. Once it is healed, a smoother pink layer of new skin is underneath. Multiple treatments are often necessary, and each one can cost $1500. Creams and Gels - There are many topical treatments that claim to reduce the appearance of scars. Many contain Vitamin E and other nutrients. Results with topical ointments like this will vary from person to person. Collagen Injection - This is a temporary fix, where the patient’s own body fat or collagen is injected into the scar site. This works well for some people with deep scars. The material injected serves to raise the skin, and reduce the scar’s appearance, and wrinkling from the scar. However, this procedure needs to be repeated every 6 months and can be expensive.
