Quick answer
What Is Scar Removal Laser Treatment?
Scar removal laser treatment is a plan rather than a single device: the doctor matches different lasers to each type of scar or mark. Indented scars need collagen remodelling, red marks need a vascular laser, and brown marks need a pigment laser.
Atrophic acne scars – rolling, boxcar and icepick – are usually treated with fractional resurfacing such as CO2 Laser or Pico Fraxel. Red post-acne marks (post-inflammatory erythema) respond to vascular lasers such as V-Beam, while brown marks (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation) respond to gentle toning.
Lasers improve scars; they rarely erase them completely. Raised hypertrophic scars and keloids need a different approach, often with injections, and active acne should be controlled first. For active breakouts, ask about Acne treatment.

Who Is Scar Removal Laser Right For?
Adults whose acne is mostly under control and who are left with indented scars, red marks or brown marks.
Scar laser treatment is not recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding, during an active acne flare or infection, within several months of isotretinoin for resurfacing lasers, or for people prone to keloids without special planning. Darker skin tones have a higher risk of temporary pigment after treatment, so settings are kept conservative.
- Rolling or boxcar acne scars
- Red marks that linger after spots heal
- Brown marks left by old breakouts
- Uneven texture after acne
- Flat surgical or injury scars (assessed case by case)

FAQ
Scar Removal Laser in Seoul – Frequently Asked Questions
How much is scar removal laser in Gangnam, Seoul?
The price of scar removal laser at BLS Clinic Main Branch is confirmed after a doctor consultation because it depends on scar type, area and the lasers combined. For active acne, Agnes is listed from ₩15,000 for a single acne treatment.
Can laser completely remove acne scars?
Laser usually improves acne scars significantly but rarely removes them completely. Most people see scars become shallower and less noticeable over several sessions.
What is the best laser for acne scars?
Fractional lasers such as CO2 or Pico Fraxel are commonly used for indented acne scars. Red marks respond better to vascular lasers and brown marks to toning, so the best plan often combines lasers.
How many laser sessions do acne scars usually need?
Most people need 3–6 scar laser sessions spaced 4–6 weeks apart. Deeper scars may need more sessions or additional treatments.
Can I treat scars while I still have acne?
Active acne is usually treated first, since inflamed skin heals less predictably. Red and brown marks can sometimes be treated while mild acne is being controlled.
Is scar laser possible during a trip to Seoul?
Yes. A gentle vascular or toning session fits a short trip, while ablative resurfacing needs about a week of healing time in Seoul. BLS Clinic can plan sessions around repeat visits.
