Acne & Acne Scarring Care

Let’s Talk Real Skin Solutions

At Springs Dermatology MD, we understand how frustrating and overwhelming acne and acne scars can feel. Flare-ups that appear at the worst times, treatments that seem slow to work, and marks that linger long after breakouts.

Whether you're dealing with stubborn acne, post-acne discoloration, or scarring that feels impossible to hide, our board-certified dermatologists are here with safe, personalized care. We create treatment plans tailored to your skin type, lifestyle, and goals—helping you move toward clearer skin and lasting results.

360-Degree Medical & Cosmetic Acne Care

Acne isn’t just about breakouts—it’s about skin health, confidence, and lasting results. That’s why we don’t just treat acne; we provide a complete skin care strategy that prevents future flare-ups and helps your skin recover from past damage. Our 360-degree approach integrates medical treatments and cosmetic care to address every aspect of your skin’s needs. How We Treat Acne and Acne Scarring

Step 1: Diagnosis & Understanding Your Skin

We begin with a thorough evaluation to uncover the root causes of your acne — whether hormonal, inflammatory, or environmental.

Step 2: Medical Treatments for Active Acne

Our physician-supervised treatments include:

• In-office therapies to calm active breakouts

• Steroid injections for painful, inflamed cysts

• Personalized prescription guidance for effective at-home care

• Professional comedone extractions to clear clogged pores

Step 3: Cosmetic Treatments for Scarring & Skin Texture

Once your acne is under control, we help restore your skin’s smoothness and clarity with:

• Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy) to improve texture and reduce scarring

• Scar Subcision to release deep, tethered scars

• Chemical peels to fade dark spots and brighten skin tone

• Microdermabrasion for gentle exfoliation and pore refinement

• Filler treatments to restore volume lost from deep scarring

• Thread lifting techniques to support and lift certain types of depressed scars

Why Our 360-Degree Approach Matters

By combining medical and cosmetic expertise, we address every part of your skin’s health — from controlling breakouts to revealing smoother, more radiant skin after scarring. Our approach is safe, patient-centered, and designed for all skin types and tones.

Accurate Diagnosis for Lasting Results
