Advanced Acne Scar Treatment Protocol by Dr. Sadaf Farooqi, MD at SF Aesthetic Medspa

Comprehensive Acne Scar Solutions with TCA Peel, Subcision, Morpheus8, CO2 Laser, and Regenerative Fillers

Overview

At SF Aesthetic Medspa, we offer a specialized acne scar treatment protocol designed to provide comprehensive care for patients struggling with acne scars. This protocol, developed by Dr. Sadaf Farooqi, MD, combines multiple advanced techniques, including TCA peel, subcision, Morpheus8, CO2 laser resurfacing, and regenerative fillers, to deliver transformative results. Whether you have atrophic scars, boxcar scars, rolling scars, or ice-pick scars, our customized approach addresses various scar types for smoother, rejuvenated skin.

Dr. Sadaf Farooqi’s Acne Scar Treatment Protocol: Key Components

1. TCA Cross Peel (Trichloroacetic Acid)

The TCA Cross technique is ideal for treating deep, pitted acne scars, such as ice-pick scars. The application of TCA into the scar tissue triggers controlled damage, encouraging collagen remodeling and healing from within. Over time, the scar tissue reduces in depth, leading to a more even skin texture.

2. Subcision

Subcision is an effective procedure for releasing tethered acne scars, especially rolling scars. Using a fine needle, the fibrotic bands under the skin are broken apart, freeing the skin from the underlying scar tissue. This allows for smoother skin and encourages collagen production for long-term improvement.

3. Morpheus8 Radiofrequency Microneedling

Morpheus8 combines microneedling with radiofrequency (RF) energy to target deeper layers of the skin. By delivering thermal energy into the skin’s tissue, Morpheus8 promotes collagen production and tightens the skin, reducing the appearance of acne scars. This technique is ideal for improving overall skin texture and firmness.

4. CO2 Laser Resurfacing

The CO2 fractional laser is a powerful tool for treating acne scars by removing damaged outer layers of the skin and stimulating collagen growth in the underlying skin layers. The result is a smoother, more even skin tone and texture. CO2 laser is particularly effective for boxcar scars and other deep scars, promoting significant resurfacing and rejuvenation.

5. Regenerative Fillers

In conjunction with subcision and laser treatments, we use regenerative dermal fillers, such as Sculptra or Radiesse, to fill in volume loss from acne scars and encourage the body’s natural collagen production. These fillers not only improve the immediate appearance of scars but also provide long-term structural support as the body builds its own collagen.
