Acne can be frustrating enough on its own — but lingering scars, uneven texture and enlarged pores can make it feel like the effects never fully fade. The good news is that advances in laser technology have made it possible to significantly improve skin texture and reduce acne scarring with treatments that are precise, effective and customizable.
At Rendon Center, our board-certified dermatologists offer laser solutions designed to help patients feel more confident in their skin while supporting long-term skin health.
How Acne Scars and Texture Issues Develop
Acne scars form when inflammation damages the skin’s deeper layers, disrupting normal collagen production during the healing process. This can lead to indentations, uneven texture or changes in skin tone. Even after active breakouts resolve, enlarged pores and rough texture may remain due to past inflammation and collagen loss.
How Acne Laser Scar Treatments Improve Skin Texture
Laser skin treatments work by removing old, damaged skin cells in the outermost layer of the skin to reveal new, healthy skin underneath. At the same time, focused heat energy stimulates collagen growth in the deeper layers of the skin. This dual action helps smooth uneven texture, soften the appearance of acne scars and refine pore size over time.
Types of Acne Laser Resurfacing Treatments
There are several laser options used to address acne scars and texture issues and the best approach depends on your individual needs. Some treatments focus on more intensive resurfacing for deeper scars, while others offer gradual improvements with minimal downtime.
Your dermatologist will consider factors such as scar depth, skin tone and overall skin health when recommending the best treatment for acne scars. In many cases, a series of treatments delivers the most noticeable and long-lasting results.
How Effective Is Acne Laser Treatment?
Many patients see visible improvements in skin smoothness, tone and texture after laser resurfacing treatments. While results vary, laser therapy is widely considered one of the most effective solutions for acne scars and texture irregularities because it addresses the underlying collagen structure, not just the skin’s surface.
It’s important to remember that laser treatments are a process. Improvements continue as collagen remodels over time, allowing your skin to continue improving in the weeks and months following treatment.
What to Expect During and After Treatment
Laser treatments are performed in-office by experienced professionals. Depending on the type of laser used, recovery can range from minimal redness for a few days to a more extended healing period for more intensive resurfacing.
Your Rendon Center dermatologist will provide clear aftercare instructions to support healing and protect your results. Proper sun protection and gentle skincare are critical during recovery.
