Adult & Pediatric Dermatology encourages patients with acne scars to seek a professional evaluation, highlighting the importance of identifying scar type and developing an individualized treatment plan.
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 2, 2026
FOREST HILLS, NY – Adult & Pediatric Dermatology is encouraging patients with acne scars to seek a professional evaluation before beginning treatment, noting that different types of acne scars require different treatment approaches and that realistic expectations are an important part of the treatment process.
Acne scarring can include rolling scars, boxcar scars, and ice-pick scars, each of which may respond differently to available treatments. Some skin changes that patients believe are permanent scars may instead be post-inflammatory discoloration, which can gradually improve over time with appropriate skin care and sun protection.
The practice recommends treating active acne before focusing on scar revision whenever possible. During an evaluation, providers identify the type of scarring present and discuss treatment options, which may include microneedling, combination therapies, or other procedures based on the patient's skin condition and treatment goals.
"Meaningful improvement in acne scars takes time and begins with identifying the type of scar a patient has," said Zina Goldvekht, PA-C, Adult & Pediatric Dermatology. "An individualized treatment plan helps patients understand what improvements are possible and which treatments may be most appropriate."
Adult & Pediatric Dermatology provides evaluation and treatment for acne and acne scarring for teenagers and adults throughout Forest Hills, Rego Park, and surrounding Queens communities. New patients are welcome.
