SCARRING
Those marks don't have to be permanent
You’ve cleared up your acne, but now you have these marks that leave your skin feeling uneven and textured, long after the breakouts have healed. You really want smooth, even skin tone so you don’t have to cover up with makeup.
Many of our clients tell us it’s not just the look of scars that bothers them—it’s the reminder of their skin struggles. You’ve made peace with them (sort of), but wouldn’t it be nice if your skin looked smooth and even?
The good news: acne scars can be significantly improved. We see dramatic transformations all the time.
We also treat body and surgical scarring to thin out and remove unwanted scars while reducing redness.
Bidjaya says
I’ve been coming to Chantal Louise Skin Therapy for about 8 months now for my acne scar treatment, and I’m genuinely happy with my progress. My skin has improved noticeably over time — the scars have softened, my texture looks smoother, and overall my skin feels much healthier and more confident.

I was very surprised when I had my facial session. Chantal and her team went above and beyond my expectations for the treatment and they ensured that every single moment was pleasant and comfortable. I already recommended to other people and will keep mentioning to others. I wish I could give 6 stars.

The girls working there are super sweet and professional also they got the most beautiful skin easily ? it was worth every penny I spent on. Not only my skin feels so soft and rejuvenated (just with the first session) but I feel completely relaxed in my body.

Why acne scars form (and why they stick around)
When acne becomes severe, it can damage the skin’s collagen structure. As your skin tries to heal itself, it doesn’t always rebuild perfectly, which leaves you with indented, raised, or discolored areas.
Our #1 advice
Hands off those breakouts! Picking can spread bacteria, push inflammation deeper, and mess with your skin’s healing, making scars more likely.
Common types of scars
Atrophic (Indented) Scars
Box, rolling, or ice-pick scars that form when collagen is lost, leaving small depressions or divots in the skin.
Pigmented Marks
Those stubborn red or brown marks left behind after breakouts? They’re just post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and they can fade with the right care.
Hypertrophic/Keloid Scars
Raised, thickened scars caused by excess collagen during healing. More common in people with darker skin tones or a genetic tendency toward keloid formation.
Treatment options
We take the time to assess your unique skin and design a treatment plan that fits your needs, lifestyle, and long-term goals.
Depending on your type of scarring and skin sensitivity, we may recommend:
Dermapen Microneedling
Our most effective scar revision treatment. Stimulates collagen to rebuild texture and smooth indents. For best results, a course of treatments every 6 weeks is recommended.
Morpheus 8
An intensive skin resurfacing and restructuring treatment to fully transform the skin. It’s like Dermapen but on steroids. For those who want the fastest results for scarring. A course of 3-5 is recommended depending on scar severity.
Resurfacing Peels
To refresh and even the surface of the skin, helping fade pigmented marks and improve overall texture.
LED Light Therapy
To stimulate collagen production, support healing and reduce redness while your skin rebuilds.
Customised Home Care Plans
To protect and maintain results between visits whilst supporting your skin’s natural healing process.
Results you can expect
Scar revision is a gradual process and improvements build over time as new collagen forms and skin strengthens.
With consistent care, our clients see smoother skin, softer lines, and a more even tone. Scars and marks fade, makeup glides on effortlessly, and before long, you barely think about them at all.
Why choose us.
Chantal Louise Skin Therapy was founded because of Chantal’s own struggle with severe acne and scarring. She knows exactly what it’s like to live with the reminder of past breakouts and spent years researching the treatments that actually work. That expertise is now shared with our highly trained team to help clients just like you.

Carmelina's Story
Carmelina had deep scars on her cheeks from previous acne. It had been something she had been living with long after her acne had cleared. It made her self-conscious, and she wished for smooth skin so that when she’d apply makeup, the scars still weren’t visible. She was skeptical of spending money on her skin and afraid she wouldn’t get results. After a friend got results with CL Skin for her scars, Carmelina was keen to travel from the Gold Coast to Brisbane to have her scars resurfaced.
What we did
We completed a course of 5 Dermapen treatments to plump out the scars for a more even, smooth texture.
The result
After the course, her scars significantly improved and became far less noticeable. Her skin is now much smoother and clearer.
Carmelina says
Had a lovely treatment at Chantal Louise Skin. She has created a very calming environment. Chantal and the therapists provided wonderful guidance on my skin and tailored their advice to suit me

Sheena's Story
Sheena struggled with pimples and scarring for over 10 years. The scars on her forehead were her biggest concern, and she struggled to leave the house without makeup on, feeling confident. She wished for an even skin tone and clearer skin.
What we did
We started with 3 There You Glow treatments to strengthen her skin and kill any bacteria. We then moved onto 3 Dermapen treatments to plump out the scarring for a more even skin tone. It took just 6 months to achieve these results.
The result
We were able to completely clear her forehead scars—boosting her confidence and leaving her with glowing skin.
Sheena says
I would never leave the house without makeup. My skin was so sore and red. Since coming to the lovely ladies at Chantal Louise Skin, I’ve gained so much more confidence in myself. It’s amazing when other people notice just how much of an improvement my skin has made.

Ashlee's Story
When Ashlee first visited, her main concern was breakouts and the scarring left behind. She had tried other skin treatments at another skin clinic where she got little to no result. She was fed up with her skin and was determined to clear it.
What we did
We created a personalised treatment plan that combined 6 Dermapen and 6 There You Glow treatments. We alternated these treatments every 3 weeks, where we saw a dramatic reduction and clearing of her scars and breakouts.
The result
Ashlee’s skin has shown a huge improvement. We’ve completely cleared her breakouts and scars, which has ultimately restored her confidence.
Ashlee says
The best shape my skin has been in EVER! Amazing results for my hormonal acne in less than two months.
