Acne scars won't scrub away, and that's not your fault.
A pitted scar is a dip where collagen was lost below the surface, so scrubs, masks and serums mostly work on the surface.
SkinPen® microneedling creates tiny, controlled micro-channels that switch on your skin's natural repair response, which can help build new collagen and elastin over the following weeks. A series of 3–4 sessions, about 4–6 weeks apart, is typically recommended. Pinkness typically lasts a day or two, but this varies. Results vary.
