Subscision
Subcision is a targeted treatment for deep, tethered acne scars. Using a fine needle, it gently releases the fibrous bands pulling the skin down—helping scars lift and smooth over time. This minimally invasive technique also stimulates collagen for long-term skin remodeling and natural texture improvement.

Who It’s Best For
Subcision is designed for clients dealing with deep, tethered acne scars, especially those that appear as rolling or sunken indentations. These types of scars are often caused by fibrous bands anchoring the skin down, making them resistant to surface-level treatments like chemical peels, microneedling, or lasers.
How It Works
Subcision is a precision-based, minimally invasive procedure that works by breaking the fibrotic bands beneath the skin that are pulling scar tissue downward. A small, specialized needle is inserted beneath the scar to gently release these bands—allowing the skin to lift and begin healing from within.
This process also stimulates a localized healing response, triggering your body to produce new collagen and elastin, which improves skin texture and elasticity over time.
