Acne Scar Treatment in New Jersey

With the use of laser technology, Dr. Carniol can help an individual diminish the appearance of face acne, body acne, and acne scars. Although there is no acne cure, most patients will have a significant improvement in their resistant acne with laser treatments.

Laser therapy can also improve facial spider veins, redness, port wine stains, wrinkles, brown spots, rosacea, hemangiomas, and remove unwanted hair. Using the latest technologies, adjacent to Essex County, acne scar treatment professional Dr. Carniol can provide you with an improvement in skin tone and texture with no downtime.

Another treatment for scars and depressions is fat grafting. Fat grafting can be used to elevate some depressed acne scars. In order to restore volume in the facial area from acne scars or facial aging changes, liposuction ("lipoplasty") is used to remove fat from one area of the body. This fat is then transferred into the target area on the face.

Depending on the acne scars or presentation of the loss of facial volume, Dr. Carniol may also use facial fillers, such as Restylane ®, PerlaneT, or Juvederm T, to restore volume in depressions. These are regarded as quick and low risk solutions for treatment of some depressed acne scars. They can be injected into the lips, cheeks, and chin, depending on the patient's target area. Radiesse T may also be used in the cheeks. Although frequently used by physicians in numerous patients, some of these uses are considered by the FDA to be "off label." Somerset County acne scar specialist, plastic surgeon Dr. Carniol will help you decide which treatment is most appropriate for you.

Dr. Carniol also offers Botox ® and Dysport ®, which can improve the appearance of dynamic wrinkles along the forehead, between the eyes, at the corners of your eyes, and in the neck region. Some of our patients choose to combine these injectables with their skin acne and acne scar treatments for an overall facial rejuvenation.

Somerset County Botox and Dysport provider Dr. Carniol can discuss your options with fillers and injectables during an initial consultation.
