Subcision
Black pimples, often referred to as blackheads or deeply pigmented acne scars, are common skin concerns that can affect your confidence and overall appearance. These dark spots or scars usually result from clogged pores filled with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria, or from previous acne lesions that have left behind stubborn marks. Over time, these black pimples can become more pronounced, leading to uneven skin texture and pigmentation. At Glojas Specialist, we offer advanced subcision treatment to effectively target and reduce the appearance of black pimples on your face, restoring your skin’s smoothness and clarity.
Subcision is a minimally invasive procedure specifically designed to treat deep, depressed scars, such as those caused by severe acne or black pimples. This treatment works by breaking the fibrous bands that tether the skin down, allowing the skin to lift and smooth out naturally. Subcision is particularly effective for treating the scars and indentations left by black pimples, improving the overall texture of the skin and reducing the appearance of dark spots.
Precise Targeting of Scars
During a subcision procedure, a fine needle is inserted into the skin just below the scar tissue. The needle is then carefully maneuvered to break the fibrous bands that pull the skin down and create the indentation. By releasing these bands, the skin is able to rise, filling in the depressed area and creating a smoother surface.
Stimulation of Collagen Production
Subcision not only lifts the skin but also stimulates the production of collagen, the protein responsible for maintaining skin elasticity and firmness. As collagen production increases, the skin’s texture improves, and the visibility of black pimples and scars diminishes over time.
Minimal Downtime, Maximum Results
Subcision is a quick, outpatient procedure with minimal downtime. Most patients experience mild swelling or bruising, which typically resolves within a few days. The results of subcision can be long-lasting, with noticeable improvements in skin texture and scar appearance after just one session. For optimal results, subcision can be combined with other treatments, such as laser therapy or chemical peels.
Subcision is highly effective in treating the deep scars left by black pimples, particularly those that have resulted in indentations or uneven skin texture. By targeting the root cause of the scar, subcision provides a significant improvement in the skin’s appearance.
As a minimally invasive procedure, subcision does not require surgery or extensive recovery time. This makes it an attractive option for those looking to improve their skin’s appearance without the risks or downtime associated with more invasive procedures.
Subcision stimulates your body’s natural healing process, leading to the production of new collagen and a gradual improvement in skin texture. The results are natural-looking and long-lasting, with many patients experiencing continued improvement in the months following the procedure.
Subcision can be customized to address your specific skin concerns, whether you have a few isolated black pimples or widespread scarring. Our specialists will create a personalized treatment plan that targets the areas most affected, ensuring the best possible outcomes.
Subcision helps with acne scars, which are often a result of inflamed skin appearing swollen or red during active acne or following its clearance. These scars can worsen if the acne is picked or squeezed, leading to further inflammation. Acne scars form when the body’s collagen production is imbalanced—too little collagen results in depressed scars, while too much leads to raised scars. Subcision addresses this by breaking down the fibrous tissue that tethers depressed scars to deeper skin layers.
The procedure creates controlled wounds that trigger fresh collagen production, essential for skin repair. This new collagen formation helps smooth and flatten the skin, improving its texture and overall health, resulting in a more even and balanced appearance.
Subcision for acne scars requires local anesthesia, post-procedure care adherence (including avoiding picking or scratching), monitoring for side effects like bruising and infection, limiting strenuous activities, and protecting the skin from sun exposure for optimal results.
The side effects of subcision may include bruising and temporary pigmentation changes in the treated area, typically resolving within 2 to 10 days. Rare complications such as hematoma and tenderness at the treatment sites can occur, though preventive measures like circumferential squeezing around the needle exit point are taken to minimize these risks. After the procedure, compression bandages are applied, and patients can usually return home independently.
Following subcision treatment, patients typically experience mild downtime and are advised to refrain from strenuous activities for about 48 hours. Antibiotics may be prescribed as a precautionary measure.
Results are generally permanent, often becoming noticeable after 2-3 treatment sessions, though individual outcomes can vary. Your doctor will determine the optimal number of sessions during consultation. Additionally, combining subcision with treatments like Dermaroller, Fractional CO2 laser, or PRP therapy can enhance results—consult with your doctor to determine the best approach for your specific needs.

How many subcision sessions are needed to treat black pimples?
The number of sessions required varies depending on the severity of the scars and your individual skin type. Most patients see significant improvement after 1 to 3 sessions.

Results can vary, but many patients notice an improvement in skin texture within a few weeks. The full benefits of subcision, including increased collagen production, continue to develop over several months.
