Subcision is performed by a physician who surgically frees up the deeper layers of the skin so the scars are no longer bound down.
Surgery
A needle or surgical scissors are used to physically separate the dermis and subcutaneous tissue after topical anesthetic is applied to the treatment area. The skin may experience some bruising in and around the treated area which typically fades in a week or so. Many have opted for laser treatment for acne scars as it is less invasive.
