What is Subcision Treatment?
Subcision is a procedure used primarily to treat certain types of depressed or tethered acne scars. During the procedure, a doctor inserts a specialized needle or instrument beneath the skin to release fibrous tissue bands that pull the skin downward.
Releasing these bands allows the skin to lift and may support gradual improvement in its surface contour as healing occurs. Subcision is particularly considered for rolling acne scars, although not all scar types respond equally well.
