At LIVION in Hamburg, we treat various types of scars, including acne scars, surgical scars, injury scars, and burn scars. Highly visible acne scars on the face can be significantly reduced using modern treatment methods.

We use minimally invasive procedures such as subcision, CO₂ laser treatment, Morpheus8™ technology, and PRP therapy (platelet-rich plasma). The choice of method depends on the depth, type, and location of the scar. In many cases, a combination of these methods is recommended for optimal results.

First, a thorough skin analysis is carried out and the appropriate method is selected. In subcision, the scar tissue under the skin is loosened with a fine cannula to stimulate natural healing and collagen formation. CO₂ laser treatment specifically removes superficial or deeper skin layers, promoting cell renewal. In the PRP method, prepared autologous blood is injected into the skin to activate healing processes. Morpheus8™ combines fine needles with radiofrequency energy and works down into the deeper layers of the skin. Depending on the method, the treatment takes between 30 and 60 minutes.

Initial improvements are usually visible within days to weeks. For treatments like Morpheus8™ or PRP, the effects develop over approximately two months as the skin naturally regenerates. The final results are long-lasting and can further improve with regular treatments.

The number of sessions depends on the type and severity of the scar. Multiple sessions are often required to achieve an even skin texture. An individual assessment is provided during a personal consultation.

Temporary redness or mild swelling may occur and usually resolves within a few days. The treated skin should be well-moisturized and protected from direct sunlight. Daily application of a sunscreen with at least SPF 50 is recommended. For about one week, avoid strenuous exercise, sauna visits, and highly acidic skincare products to ensure optimal healing conditions.
