Acne scarring is an unfortunate consequence of inflammatory acne vulgaris that often leads to significant cosmetic and psychosocial impacts. Although there have been many advances in the treatment of acne scarring, it remains one of the greatest challenges in cosmetic and laser dermatology. There have been a multitude of studies establishing the efficacy of non-ablative fractional laser therapy for the treatment of atrophic acne scars, and it is widely regarded as one of the best available treatments. More recently, there has been a renewed interest in controlled, non-thermal dermal injury via microneedling devices in the treatment of atrophic acne scars. Where there is a gap in the literature, however, is in the evaluation of the combination of non-ablative fractional laser resurfacing with microneedling in the treatment of atrophic acne scars. The investigators' study will compare the safety and efficacy of using non-ablative fractional laser versus a combination of microneedling and non-ablative fractional laser for atrophic acne scars using a randomized, double-blind, split-face study. The investigators' aim is to further elucidate the pathogenesis of acne scarring and the best approaches for treatment. In doing so, the investigators will study a combination approach to this complex problem in order to better serve future patients.

Prospective, single centre, evaluator-blind study of the safety and performance of fractional radiofrequency (RF) for the treatment and reduction of acne scarring. The study will evaluate 50 treatment sites in subjects requesting treatment of their acne scarring. The study will involve three treatments on both sides of the face with 3-5 week intervals between each treatment. Subjects will be followed at 6 and 12 weeks after their last treatment. Analysis will be performed on all subjects who receive at least one treatment.
Atrophic acne scars are a common and important sequelae of acne that affect up to 43-55% of patients with acne. Scarring impacts quality of life with reports of diminished self-esteem and frustration/sadness; additionally, some individuals report that their appearance even interferes with their professional lives. Though many treatments for acne scarring exist including ablative and nonablative lasers, subcision, and peels, none is without risk of adverse effects of pain, post-procedure redness or pigmentary changes. There have been no randomized studies directly comparing the effectiveness and safety profiles of microneedling (Dermapen) to 1,540nm nonablative fractional lasers (Palomar StarLux) in the treatment of atrophic acne scarring in skin of color. This clinical trial aims to determine which treatment modality -- microneedling or nonablative fractional laser -- is safer and more efficacious in the treatment of acne scarring in patients with skin of color.
The primary objective of this randomized, split-face, controlled study is to compare the efficacy and safety of a erbium-doped 1,550-nm non-ablative fractional laser and a bipolar fractional radiofrequency microneedle device for the treatment of atrophic facial acne scars in ethnic skin (Fitzpatrick Skin Phototypes III-VI). The hypothesis of this study is that both erbium-doped 1,550-nm non-ablative fractional laser and the bipolar fractional radiofrequency microneedle device are equally effective for the treatment of atrophic acne scars in ethnic skin (SPT III-VI). However, the bipolar fractional radiofrequency microneedle device has less adverse effects than erbium-doped 1,550-nm non-ablative fractional laser due to the absence of scattering and the absence of chromophore-specific targets - predominantly melanin - traditionally needed with laser treatments; hence the fractional radiofrequency microneedle device will have a higher safety profile in darker skin types .

Randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, research pilot study. 30 subjects aged 22-55 years old of all skin types will be asked to sign an informed consent form prior to any study procedures. Subjects must have at least 1 but up to 3 acne scars ≥3 mm or ≤ 10 mm located on the cheeks or forehead. Subjects will receive one treatment (Restylane® Silk or Placebo) in each scar at day 0, and Month 1 (2 total treatments per scar during the study). Subjects will be asked to come to 10 visits: Screening visit (up to 35 days prior to Baseline), Baseline (Day 0), Day 7, Day 14, Month 1, Month 2, Month 3, Month 4, Month 5, and Month 6 (study exit visit). The treatment area will be evaluated at each visit by the unblinded investigator regarding erythema, bruising, inflammation, itching, stinging/burning, brightness, fullness, smoothness, and clarity. Safety and adverse events will be captured at each visit only by the unblinded investigator.
This single-center, clinical trial will take place over a 90 day course followed by 1-month and 6-month post treatment visits to assess the efficacy and tolerability of the SkinPen device when used on both men and women on the face and/or back.

Acne is a prevalent disorder mostly witnessed in adolescents, but can be seen in adults. Early treatment is imperative to reduce acne scarring which can appear with atrophic lesions, and depending on the skin type, significant erythema (redness) or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. A multi-modality approach to treatment is necessary when dealing with the aforementioned types of lesions. Pharmacologic management is essential, but safe procedural therapies are also necessary specifically with darker skinned individuals. Percutaneous collagen induction therapy (PCIT) is a non-invasive treatment achieved by using a micro-needling device, which is safe and effective in causing "micro-wounds" into the dermis thereby initiating wound healing followed by collagen production. This is an ideal treatment for acne scarring, re-texturizing of the skin, and hyperpigmentation for all skin types . Currently there are very few studies evaluating the safety and efficacy of microneedling and chemical peels in skin types III-VI. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effects of the combination of microneedling and chemical peel for the treatment of acne scars in skin types III-VI.
