At GLOJAS Aesthetic Clinic Kuala Lumpur, we offer Subcision—a proven solution for stubborn rolling acne scars. Performed by LCP-certified doctors in a KKM-licensed facility, this minimally invasive treatment releases scar tissue and boosts collagen for smoother skin.
Subcision is a minimally invasive dermatological procedure designed to treat atrophic, depressed acne scars—especially rolling scars tethered by fibrous tissue. These scars form when inflammation damages the skin’s deeper layers, causing the skin to sink due to fibrous bands pulling it downward.
Subcision works by mechanically releasing these fibrous strands using a special hypodermic or Nokor needle, freeing the skin surface and allowing it to rise to a more natural level. The minor trauma also stimulates collagen production, encouraging the skin to repair itself and smoothen over time.
Subcision is most effective for:
Rolling acne scars (broad and shallow depressions)
Tethered scars (scars that worsen with skin movement)
Some boxcar scars (with soft edges)
It is not suitable for:
Ice pick scars
Keloids or hypertrophic scars
Subcision is ideal for individuals with:
Rolling or tethered acne scars
Deep post-acne indentations
Scars resistant to topical or laser treatment
Our aesthetic doctors will evaluate your skin to determine the best approach, often combining subcision with PRP facial therapy, fillers, or microneedling for optimal results.
At GLOJAS Aesthetic Clinic, all procedures are performed by qualified aesthetic doctors registered with the Ministry of Health Malaysia (KKM), ensuring the highest standards of safety and professionalism. We prioritize your safety, satisfaction, and visible results by using proven techniques and advanced medical technology for every treatment.
The area is numbed for comfort. Using a special needle, fibrous scar tissue is gently released. You may experience slight swelling or bruising for a few days.
Post-care includes:
Avoiding harsh skincare for 48 hours
Using SPF protection
Following a customized aftercare plan
