What it is

For indented acne scars this is the best-supported treatment Glow offers, and it rebuilds the skin from underneath

Microneedling creates controlled micro-channels that trigger the skin's own repair response and collagen remodeling. For depressed (atrophic) acne scars this is the best-supported treatment Glow offers, because it has been studied in randomised controlled trials, which is a higher bar than most aesthetic treatments clear. It is a series, not a single visit, and it works gradually as new collagen forms over the following months.

  • Stimulates the skin's own collagen and elastin
  • May improve the appearance of depressed acne scars
  • May also help surgical, trauma and stretch-mark texture
  • Depth and spacing planned for your scar type
  • Minimal downtime compared with ablative resurfacing

Good to know

Microneedling for acne scars questions

Does microneedling actually work on acne scars?

It has genuine evidence behind it for depressed acne scars, including randomised controlled trials, which is more than most aesthetic treatments can say. It improves the appearance of scarring over a series; it does not erase scars, and results vary by scar type, skin and how consistently the plan is followed.

Which scars respond, and which don't?

Depressed (atrophic) scars generally respond best. Raised or keloid scars, and skin with active acne, need individual evaluation and may call for a different approach entirely. Your provider will tell you which category yours falls into.

How many sessions will I need?

A series is planned rather than promised. Collagen remodeling is gradual, so progress is assessed over months, and your provider will set a realistic schedule after seeing your skin.

Does it hurt?

A numbing step is used for comfort and most people tolerate it well. Afterwards the skin feels tight and looks flushed, similar to a mild sunburn.

What is the aftercare?

For the first 24 hours avoid makeup, heat, strenuous exercise and direct sun. For several days use a gentle cleanser, moisturiser and SPF 30+, and pause retinoids, acids and scrubs until fully healed. Full instructions are on our microneedling aftercare page.

Can I treat active acne at the same time?

Usually not in the same visit. Active inflammatory acne is generally settled first, sometimes with Forever Clear BBL, before a scar series begins.

How do I finish booking?

Choose an available date and time, then complete the requested details and submit your booking. Selecting a time alone does not complete the reservation. Look for the confirmation before leaving the page.

What if the calendar is blank or I cannot find a time?

Open the calendar in a new tab and try again. If it still will not load, or the listed times do not work for you, call 843-903-0108 and the team can help.

Which service should I choose?

If you are unsure, start with the new guest assessment. The team will help you arrange a consultation and choose the right next step.

How can I change or cancel my appointment?

If your plans change, call 843-903-0108 as soon as possible. The team can help with changes and explain any policies that apply to your appointment.
