Leading treatment recommendations by scar type
Any aesthetician knows the best treatment depends on your scar type, and here’s what we recommend for each.
Rolling scars
Subcision is typically best for rolling scars, a minor surgical procedure that helps improve depressed skin scars and rolling acne scars by cutting fibrous tissue bands.
At Aventis, we combine microneedling and laser therapy, like the lunchtime MOXI Laser, to stimulate collagen production and improve overall skin texture.

Boxcar scars
Indented, crater-like marks left by acne can often be improved with laser therapy, microneedling, and chemical peels, depending on depth and severity. These treatments encourage new collagen formation and can smooth uneven skin texture.
At Aventis, we’ve found that boxcar scars respond well to Halo laser resurfacing for deeper textural resurfacing, the MOXI laser for milder scarring and microneedling to soften the edges of the scars.
Ice pick scars
Small, deep, narrow holes in the skin caused by severe cystic acne require more specialised treatments.
At Aventis, we’ll invite you in to assess your scarring and recommend the right approach, which might include laser therapy, chemical peels or other advanced treatments, like the Halo laser alongside subcision.
Flat red or brown marks
Post-inflammatory erythema or hyperpigmentation aren’t true scars and often respond well to medical-grade skincare, chemical peels and laser treatments to improve the skin’s clarity and reduce pigmentation.
At Aventis, we can explore BBL (BroadBand Light) for redness and pigmentation, MOXI laser for uneven tone, and medical-grade Obagi skincare to accelerate fading.
