Restore Smooth, Confident Skin with Expert Care from Dr. Jessica Johnson
Acne may be temporary, but the scars it leaves behind can linger long after breakouts fade. At Elegance Renewed MedSpa in Pickens, SC, we offer advanced, customized solutions for acne scars to help you achieve clearer, smoother, and more confident skin.
With a deep understanding of skin healing and regeneration, Dr. Jessica Johnson uses evidence-based treatments to target all types of acne scars—whether they're pitted, raised, or discolored. Every treatment plan is tailored to your skin type, scar severity, and long-term goals, ensuring natural-looking improvements you can feel good about.
What Are Acne Scars?
Acne scars form when inflamed blemishes damage the skin’s deeper layers, leading to irregular healing. The result is uneven skin texture, pigmentation changes, or indentation in the skin’s surface.
There are several types of acne scars:
- Atrophic scars (indented): ice pick, boxcar, and rolling scars
- Hypertrophic or keloid scars (raised and firm)
- Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH): flat, discolored marks, more common in medium to dark skin tones
Understanding the type of scarring is key to choosing the most effective treatment—something Dr. Johnson carefully assesses in every consultation.
What Acne Scar Treatments Are Available?
At Elegance Renewed MedSpa, we offer a comprehensive range of solutions designed to smooth skin texture, reduce discoloration, and boost confidence. Common treatments include:
Microneedling
Stimulates collagen production by creating tiny micro-injuries in the skin, which helps fill in depressed scars and improve skin tone.
Chemical Peels
Exfoliates damaged skin layers and encourages cell turnover. Great for improving pigmentation and surface-level scars.
Dermaplaning
Removes dead skin and peach fuzz, enhancing texture and helping other treatments penetrate more effectively. Ideal for superficial scars.
Medical-Grade Skincare
Customized at-home regimens to fade dark spots and prevent future breakouts, supporting and prolonging in-office results.
Combination Therapy
In many cases, a multi-modality approach is the most effective. Dr. Johnson creates personalized treatment plans that may combine several techniques for optimal results over time.
Which Treatment Is Right for Me?
It depends on the type and severity of your acne scars, your skin tone, and your personal goals. During your initial consultation, Dr. Johnson will:
- Examine your skin closely
- Determine the type(s) of scarring present
- Recommend a targeted plan with realistic expectations and timelines
- Discuss what to expect before, during, and after each treatment
No two patients are the same—your treatment will be designed just for you.
What Are the Benefits of Professional Acne Scar Treatment?
Professional scar revision with Dr. Johnson can help you:
- Smooth uneven skin texture
- Reduce the depth and appearance of indented scars
- Fade dark spots and pigmentation
- Increase skin confidence and reduce the need for makeup
- Prevent new breakouts and support skin health
Many patients experience emotional relief as well—being able to face the world without feeling the need to hide behind concealer or filters.
How Long Before I See Results?
Results vary depending on the treatment and your skin’s unique healing response. However:
- Light resurfacing (e.g., peels, dermaplaning) can show results within a few days to a week
- Microneedling and deeper therapies usually produce gradual improvements over several weeks to months as collagen builds
- Most patients benefit from a series of treatments spaced out over time for long-term correction
Dr. Johnson will guide you through what to expect at each stage and offer ongoing support throughout your journey.
Is Acne Scar Treatment Safe for My Skin Tone?
Yes. Dr. Johnson has extensive experience treating patients of all skin tones and is highly selective with treatment modalities to minimize the risk of hyperpigmentation or sensitivity.
She prioritizes safety and will never recommend a treatment that isn’t appropriate for your specific skin type or concern.
