About acne & acne-scar management at Thamaraa
Acne is a medical skin condition, and treating it early is the best way to prevent scars. Treatment usually begins with prescription creams or tablets, sometimes combined with peels. Once breakouts are controlled, procedures such as RF microneedling, fractional CO₂ laser or subcision can improve scars. Your plan depends on the type of acne, the type of scars and your skin type.

Read moreFrequently asked questions
How long before acne improves?
Most treatments take 6 to 12 weeks to show clear improvement. Stopping early is a common reason acne returns.
Why do blackheads come back after extraction?
Extraction only clears existing plugs. Topical treatment reduces new ones forming, so both are used together.
Can peels alone cure acne?
Peels help, but most acne needs home treatment as well. Peels are an add-on that speeds up improvement.
Can acne scars be removed completely?
Scars can usually be improved significantly, often by 50 to 70 percent, but complete removal is uncommon. Your dermatologist will give you realistic expectations.
Is RF microneedling painful?
With numbing cream most people describe it as tolerable prickling and warmth.
Will acne marks fade on their own?
Many fade slowly over months, but treatment speeds this up and sun protection prevents them from darkening.
Not sure which treatment is right for you?
Start with a consultation. The doctor will examine your skin or scalp, explain what is going on and suggest a plan that fits your concern and budget.
