There’s a wide range of treatments available at our facial aesthetic clinic in Grand Cayman to treat acne and scarring.

But the best solution depends on your scar type and skin, which is why we tailor our available treatments to create a programme that targets your individual condition.

  • Combination treatments deliver the best results by targeting scars from multiple angles.
  • Choose treatments that stimulate collagen production to repair damaged skin naturally over time.
  • Expect gradual improvements with results developing over several weeks to months.
  • Most patients need a course of treatments for optimal results rather than a single session.
  • Minimal downtime with treatments like MOXI laser and microneedling, making them easy to fit around your routine.

Leading treatment recommendations by scar type

Any aesthetician knows that the best treatment depends on your scar type, and here’s what we would recommend for each.

Rolling scars

Rolling scars are typically best treated with subcision, a minor surgical procedure that helps improve depressed skin scars and rolling acne scars by cutting fibrous tissue bands.

At Aventis, we do this by combining 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 on the skin by acne can often be improved with laser therapy, microneedling and chemical peels, depending on depth and severity. All of these treatments encourage new collagen formation and can smooth uneven skin textures.

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.
