Contact UsWhat is Acne Scar Treatment?
Acne scars develop as a result of damage to the pores from the buildup of dead skin cells, oils, and bacteria, which can create deep, permanent lesions due to the skin’s inability to clear itself. Utilizing laser technology, acne scar treatment at Vein & Body Specialists is a nonsurgical cosmetic procedure that uses precise beams of light to exfoliate damaged skin cells, layer by layer, helping to minimize the appearance of acne scars. By utilizing Opus Plasma® technology by Alma, this treatment is excellent for patients who want clearer skin. There is some recovery time associated with skin resurfacing treatments. Schedule a trip to our Bellevue, OH practice for a consultation to learn if this treatment is right for you.

Am I A Good Candidate for Acne Scar Treatment?
Acne scar treatment at Vein & Body Specialists aims to reduce the visibility of scars, improving not just your skin but your confidence as well. A good candidate for this treatment typically has:
- Moderate to severe acne scarring
- Healthy skin elasticity
- Realistic expectations about results
- No active acne or skin infections
- Good overall health
It's important to consult with our healthcare professionals for a thorough evaluation of your skin type and scar severity. This will help tailor a treatment plan that's best suited for you.

How Does Acne Scar Treatment Work?
Our skin care professionals will start by sanitizing your face. If required, patients will receive protective eyewear to guard their eyes. Throughout the half-hour session, Dr. David West will lightly move the RF device across the skin to take out blackheads and destroy acne-causing bacteria. You could feel a little tenderness during the session; however, the majority of individuals describe it as an annoying tingling feeling. The procedure helps renew your skin, helping you get a refreshed and clearer appearance.

Very nice place to be treated for varicose veins and other personal enhancement issues. Everyone is very nice and helpful. I have just started going here, but it seems like I will be happy I picked Vein and Body!

What to Expect After Your Acne Scar Treatment
Your skin will be red and inflamed for a day or two after your Opus Plasma treatment. Most patients find this tolerable, but our team can provide recommendations for products to soothe your skin during this period. You will need to avoid most types of cosmetics on the treatment area, and you should take care to protect your skin from direct sunlight as it recovers. Most patients start noticing an improvement in the health and appearance of their skin within the first few weeks of their acne scar treatment, but it may take several sessions to unlock the true benefits of Opus Plasma for your complexion.

About UsAcne Scar Treatment FAQs
How much does acne scar treatment with Opus by Alma cost?
Acne scar treatment costs will vary based on the condition of your skin and your cosmetic goals. During your consultation, we will evaluate the treatment area while understanding your desires before discussing your specific resurfacing treatment, including costs. Vein & Body Specialists offers skin treatment specials and packages, so ask about current specials during your appointment.
How can I help my skin recover after a resurfacing treatment?
The number one rule is not to peel or pick your skin, which can cause long-term damage, including additional scarring. You should forgo all hair removal methods on the treated skin, including waxing, shaving, or depilatory creams. We will recommend ways to help soothe and heal treated areas.
How often should I get laser resurfacing treatments?
You might need to wait several weeks or even a few months between treatments, depending on the severity of the acne scarring. Deep treatments will provide longer-lasting results but require a longer recovery period. During your consultation, let us know how often you are willing to come back for treatments so we can consider this when choosing a treatment plan.
Do Opus Plasma treatments hurt?
Before starting your Opus treatment at Vein & Body Specialists, we'll apply a numbing ointment onto your skin to limit any potential discomfort you might feel. Most patients report a feeling of mild warmth and slight pressure. Afterward, your skin might be irritated for some time, but this will pass as the healing process starts.
