This 31-year-old patient was treated with acne subcision combined with the SP Dynamis laser by Dr. Nasrin Mani to address active acne lesions and scarring visible across the cheeks and forehead. Subcision works by inserting a small needle beneath depressed scar tissue to release the fibrous bands that pull the skin downward. The SP Dynamis treatment then delivers laser energy to the skin surface, targeting texture irregularities and post-inflammatory changes. You can see in the after photo that the cheek surface appears noticeably smoother, with a visible reduction in the density of active lesions and shallow depressions across the treatment area. This combination approach addresses both the structural and surface components of acne scarring in a single treatment plan.
