Scar classification
The scar pattern is assessed before treatment is selected.
LASER • ACNE SCARS • TEXTURE
Laser planning for selected acne scars, based on scar type, skin tone, active acne and risk of post-inflammatory pigmentation.
ABOUT THE TREATMENT
Acne scars can be ice-pick, boxcar, rolling, raised or mixed. Different scar patterns respond to different methods, and laser may be one part of a combination plan rather than the only treatment.
Your concern, relevant history and treatment goals are reviewed before suitability is discussed.
The treatment pathway is adapted to your assessment, priorities and realistic goals rather than a fixed protocol.
Technique, intensity and treatment details are selected conservatively according to the service and your individual needs.
Aftercare and follow-up are used to assess response, support recovery and decide whether further treatment is appropriate.
TREATMENT FOCUS
Treatment planning focuses on the factors most relevant to this service, your diagnosis or concern, and safe, realistic outcomes.
The scar pattern is assessed before treatment is selected.
Energy settings and device choice are adapted to pigment risk and skin response.
Subcision, microneedling, peels or other approaches may be discussed when appropriate.
Laser choice and intensity consider skin tone, pigment risk, downtime and the specific scar pattern being treated.
IN MORE DETAIL
Skin tone, tanning history, active acne and tendency to develop pigmentation or keloids influence device choice and settings. Consultation is therefore essential before deciding whether laser is suitable.
At Lumera Derm, treatment choice follows assessment. The aim is to match the option to the concern, skin or scalp condition, medical history and realistic goals rather than treating a service name as a one-size-fits-all solution.
YOUR VISIT
Each service follows the same principle: assess first, explain options clearly, then treat only when appropriate.
Discuss the concern, goals, relevant history and any previous treatment.
Confirm suitability, risks, alternatives and whether another pathway would be more appropriate.
Agree on a conservative, personalised plan with realistic expectations.
Follow-up is used to assess response and decide whether any further treatment is worthwhile.
SAFETY & SUITABILITY
Laser can cause redness, swelling, burns, pigment change or scarring, particularly when inappropriate settings are used. Sun protection and aftercare matter.
