Acne Scar Treatment In Mumbai: What to Know

What are acne scars?
Acne scars are dents or raised bumps left in the skin after acne damages the collagen underneath. They are a texture problem, not a colour problem. Flat brown or red patches are acne marks, which is a different condition.
Can acne scars actually be treated?
Yes. Most acne scars improve significantly with clinical treatment, usually by 70 to 90 percent. Creams and facials cannot lift a pit, because the damage sits deep in the skin and only new collagen can fill it.
Which treatments work best?
For pitted scars: subcision, RF microneedling, TCA CROSS, microneedling, PRP and dermal fillers. For raised and keloid scars: steroid injections and silicone therapy. Most plans combine two or three of these.
How many sessions are needed?
Usually 4 to 8 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The gap is deliberate, because your skin needs that time to build new collagen between sessions.
Is it safe for Indian skin?
Yes, when a doctor sets the needle depth and energy for your skin tone. Wrong settings on deeper skin can leave pigmentation, which is why every session here is performed by a dermatologist.
Where is the clinic?
Aevum Health, 104, 105, Asmi Dreams, Mahatma Gandhi Road, Unnat Nagar 2, Goregaon West, Mumbai 400104. Patients also travel to us from Kandivali, Malad, Andheri West and Borivali.
Why Acne Scars Form

Acne Scar Treatment That Smoothes The Texture.

Deep or repeated acne breaks the collagen sitting under your skin. As the skin heals it either makes too little collagen and leaves a pit, or makes too much and leaves a raised bump. That damage sits below the surface, which is why creams, facials and peels cannot lift it. Acne scar removal treatment in Mumbai works by rebuilding collagen at the right depth - and that is exactly what subcision, RF microneedling, TCA CROSS and PRP are built to do.

Know Your Scars

Atrophic vs. hypertrophic.

Type 01

Atrophic Scars (Pitted)

  • Ice-pick scars - deep, narrow pits
  • Boxcar scars - broad, sharp-edged depressions
  • Rolling scars - wave-like, uneven surface
  • Best treated with subcision, RF microneedling, TCA CROSS
Type 02

Hypertrophic / Raised Scars

  • Raised bumps of over-healed tissue
  • Common on jawline, chest and shoulders
  • Keloids extend beyond the original acne site
  • Best treated with steroid injections & silicone therapy

Not sure which one you have? Flat brown or red spots that slowly fade are acne marks, not scars. At consultation your skin is assessed to map the right treatment to your scar type, depth and skin tone.

The Wonder Body session was mind-blowing! I had come in with an issue of stuck weight and this therapy actually did wonders to my body in just 30 mins. I felt light in the first session itself, and improvements continued in the next sessions.

What We Offer

Acne Scar Removal Treatment Options.

No single tool fixes every scar. Each of these does one job well, and most plans combine two or three of them across your sessions.

Pitted Scars

Subcision

A fine needle is passed under the scar to release the fibrous bands pulling it down. The scar lifts almost at once, and collagen fills the freed space over the following weeks.

Best forRolling and tethered boxcar scars. Bruising for 3 to 7 days.

Pitted Scars

RF Microneedling

Tiny needles carry radiofrequency energy into the deeper layers of skin and trigger collagen rebuilding, without burning the surface. This is the workhorse of most scar plans.

Best forRolling and shallow boxcar scars. Redness for 24 to 48 hours.

Pitted Scars

Microneedling (Dermaroller)

Fine needles create controlled micro-injuries that push the skin to make new collagen. Gentler than RF and useful for shallow texture spread over a wide area.

Best forShallow, widespread texture. Often used between deeper sessions.

Pitted Scars

TCA CROSS

A high-strength acid is placed precisely inside each ice-pick scar to remodel it from the base upward. It touches only the scar, never the skin around it.

Best forNarrow, deep ice-pick scars. Dark points fade over 1 to 2 weeks.

Support Therapy

PRP for Acne Scars

Growth factors are separated from your own blood and returned to the treated skin. It speeds up healing and improves the quality of the collagen your skin builds.

Best forPairing with subcision or microneedling, rather than used alone.

Pitted Scars

Dermal Fillers for Scars

A small amount of filler is placed under a depressed scar to lift it. The change shows the same day, but it is temporary, so fillers support a collagen plan rather than replace one.

Best forSpecific stubborn boxcar scars. More on fillers

Raised Scars

Steroid Injections

For hypertrophic and keloid scars, a small dose of steroid is injected into the raised tissue to soften and flatten it. Usually repeated every 4 to 6 weeks.

Best forRaised and keloid scars. Often paired with silicone gel therapy.

Laser resurfacing is another route for some scar types, chosen case by case on Indian skin. See laser for acne scars. If your concern is flat discolouration rather than texture, start with acne treatment or chemical peels instead.

Why Aevum Health

Why Choose Our Acne Scar Treatment Clinic In Goregaon & Kandivali.

Medical-Grade Care

Matched to Your Scars

Your scars are mapped by type (ice-pick, boxcar, rolling or raised), depth and skin tone before any treatment is chosen.

Safe for Indian Skin

Needle depth and energy settings are set for Indian and South Asian skin tones, which lowers the risk of pigmentation after treatment.

Doctor-Led Always

Every session is performed and supervised by a qualified dermatologist, never handed to a technician.

Process & Care

Simple, supervised, and gentle.

Step-by-step

The Process

Consultation and scar mapping → a personalised scar revision plan → your sessions (usually 4 to 8, spaced 4 to 6 weeks) → maintenance and SPF to protect the new collagen.

Stop retinols, exfoliating acids and blood-thinners 48 hours ahead. Avoid waxing and direct sun on the treatment area. Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin.

Quick Answers

Frequently Asked Questions.

Can acne scars be fully removed?
Most acne scars improve by roughly 70 to 90 percent with the right combination of treatments, but scars are rarely erased completely. Depth and type decide how far you get. Shallow rolling scars respond fastest, while deep ice-pick scars need a longer course. At consultation we set clear, honest expectations for your scar profile before anything starts.

Which is the best treatment for pitted acne scars?
For deep pitted or ice-pick scars, subcision with TCA CROSS and RF microneedling is the standard combination. Rolling scars often respond well to RF microneedling alone. Boxcar scars usually need subcision, sometimes with a filler to lift the base. There is no single best treatment. Your doctor decides after mapping your scars.

How many sessions of acne scar treatment will I need?
Most acne scar plans run 4 to 8 sessions, spaced 4 to 6 weeks apart. The gap matters, because your skin needs that time to build new collagen between sessions. Deeper scarring can need 6 to 10 sessions. Improvement continues for 3 to 6 months after the last session as the new collagen matures.

How much does acne scar treatment in Mumbai cost?
It depends on which treatments your scars actually need, how many sessions are planned, and whether treatments are combined in one sitting. Because no two scar profiles are the same, we do not publish a single standard figure online. Your dermatologist walks you through the full plan and what it involves at consultation, before anything begins.

Is subcision safe for Indian skin?
Yes. Subcision has been performed safely for decades on all skin types, including Indian and South Asian tones. At Aevum it is doctor-performed under sterile conditions, with numbing cream applied first for comfort. Mild bruising for 3 to 7 days is the only common side effect.

Is there any downtime after acne scar treatment?
It depends on the treatment. RF microneedling leaves mild redness for 24 to 48 hours and tiny scabs for 3 to 5 days. Subcision causes bruising for 3 to 7 days. PRP leaves minor redness for a few hours. TCA CROSS leaves small dark points at the treated spots that fade over 1 to 2 weeks. Your doctor briefs you fully before each session so you can plan around it.

What is the difference between acne marks and acne scars?
Acne marks are flat patches of colour, brown or red, left behind after a breakout. They fade over time and respond to peels and facials. Acne scars are textural, meaning actual pits, depressions or raised bumps caused by collagen damage. Scars need collagen-rebuilding treatment such as subcision, microneedling and PRP. Peels alone will not level them.

Do I need to clear my active acne first?
In most cases yes. Treating scars while acne is still active can trigger fresh breakouts, slow healing and create new scarring. Your dermatologist will usually settle the active acne first and then begin the scar plan. In some cases both are managed together, but only under close supervision.

Can laser treatment remove acne scars?
Laser resurfacing can help certain scar types, particularly shallow and widespread texture. It is one option among several rather than a default choice. On Indian and South Asian skin the settings must be conservative to avoid pigmentation afterwards, which is why it is chosen case by case. Our laser for acne scars page covers this in more detail.
