Acne & scar correction treatments
All treatments,
one clinic
Every treatment is selected based on your acne grade, scar type, skin characteristics and individual clinical needs, ensuring your treatment plan is tailored to your condition.
Medical Acne Management
Grade-based prescription treatment addressing acne at its root: bacterial load, sebum production, follicular plugging and inflammation. Dr. K. B. Kavitha classifies the grade before prescribing anything.
Chemical Peels
Salicylic, glycolic and lactic acid peels used to control active acne, reduce post-inflammatory pigmentation and refine skin texture. Peel type and strength are matched to your skin grade and tolerance.
Pico and Carbon Toning
Picosecond laser toning for PIH marks and post-acne pigmentation. Carbon laser toning for active sebaceous skin, enlarged pores and surface bacteria control. Often used together as a combined protocol.
MNRF
Microneedling Radiofrequency uses fractional RF energy delivered deep into the dermis via insulated microneedles. The gold standard for moderate to severe atrophic acne scarring, particularly boxcar and rolling scars.
Fractional CO₂ and Q-YAG
Fractional ablative CO2 laser for deeper scar resurfacing. Fractional Q-switched Nd:YAG for pigmented or superficial scars in darker skin types where ablative lasers carry higher risk. Both are available here.
Dermapen International
Precision medical-grade microneedling for collagen induction. Suitable for superficial to moderate scarring, skin texture issues and as a delivery vehicle for growth factors, exosomes and skin boosters.
Subcision
A minor surgical procedure that releases the fibrous bands tethering deep rolling and box scars to the underlying tissue. Used when laser treatments alone cannot lift a tethered scar. Often combined with MNRF or fillers.
Skin Boosters, PDRN and Exosomes
Regenerative injectables and topical agents used to accelerate scar healing, replenish dermal hydration and improve overall skin quality. Often prescribed as part of a multi-modality scar correction plan.
LED Phototherapy
Red and blue LED light therapy for active acne and post-treatment skin recovery. Blue light targets acne-causing bacteria. Red light reduces inflammation and supports collagen production. No downtime, no pain.
Why Karur Trusts Dr. K. B. Kavitha
Acne is medical.
It deserves a medical approach.
At Skin Trust, acne care begins with a clinical assessment of your skin and the factors contributing to your acne. Dr. K. B. Kavitha develops a treatment plan based on the type and severity of acne, skin characteristics and individual needs.
Grade-based diagnosis first
Dr. K. B. Kavitha classifies your acne by grade before recommending any treatment. A Grade 2 comedonal case and a Grade 4 nodulocystic case need completely different approaches. Selling the same peel to both is incorrect medicine.
Scar morphology assessed before treatment
Ice-pick, boxcar, rolling and tethered scars can require different treatment approaches. Dr. K. B. Kavitha assesses the dominant scar type, depth and skin characteristics to determine the most appropriate treatment modality for your individual needs.
Active acne cleared before scar treatment
Treating scars on skin that is still actively breaking out is a clinical error. Dr. K. B. Kavitha stabilises active acne first, then begins the scar correction phase once the skin is ready. This sequencing protects your results.
Doctor performs every procedure
All laser treatments, MNRF, subcision, skin booster injections and chemical peels at Skin Trust are performed personally by Dr. K. B. Kavitha, ensuring that your treatment remains under direct medical supervision.
Standardised photography at every visit
Progress photographs are taken under identical lighting and angles at every follow-up. You can see your skin changing on a screen, not rely on memory or a mirror in a different light.
Full treatment spectrum available
From medical management and chemical peels through to MNRF, fractional lasers, subcision and regenerative injectables, the complete acne and scar correction pathway is available at this one clinic in Karur.
No packages, honest recommendations
Dr. K. B. Kavitha assesses the type and severity of your scars before recommending a treatment approach, from peels and Dermapen to MNRF and fractional CO₂, based on what is appropriate for your skin.

Acne is the most common skin condition Dr. K. B. Kavitha sees at this clinic, and it is also one of the most mismanaged. Patients often arrive after years of trying pharmacy products or undergoing multiple peel sessions elsewhere with no real protocol behind them.
Her approach starts at the grade. She classifies the acne, identifies contributing factors such as hormones, diet or stress, and builds a prescription plan before recommending any procedure. For scar patients, she assesses the dominant scar morphology and sequences the treatments correctly: active acne must be stable before scar correction begins.
All in-clinic procedures are performed by Dr. K. B. Kavitha personally. This applies to every MNRF session, every fractional laser pass, every subcision procedure and every skin booster injection.

Common questions
Before you book
No treatment removes acne scars completely, and any clinic claiming otherwise is being misleading. What modern treatments like MNRF, fractional CO2 and subcision do is significantly reduce scar depth, improve surface texture and make scars much less visible. Most patients see 50 to 80 percent improvement after a proper treatment course. The realistic outcome for your specific scar type will be discussed at your consultation.
Yes, always. Performing laser resurfacing or MNRF on skin that is still actively breaking out risks worsening inflammation and triggering new post-inflammatory marks. Dr. K. B. Kavitha always stabilises active acne before beginning any scar correction treatment. The sequencing is not optional, it is clinical practice.
The number of sessions depends on your dominant scar type, severity and treatment approach. Mild, superficial scarring may show improvement with around three to four Dermapen sessions. Moderate, mixed scarring may require three to five MNRF sessions, typically spaced four to six weeks apart. Deeper or more complex scarring may require a longer treatment plan involving procedures such as subcision and fractional CO₂. Dr. K. B. Kavitha will assess your scars and discuss a realistic treatment plan, including the expected number and spacing of sessions, during your initial consultation.
Topical anaesthetic cream is applied before an MNRF session, so most patients experience mild pressure rather than pain during the procedure. After the session, the skin appears red and slightly swollen for 24 to 48 hours. Most patients return to normal activity within two to three days. Full collagen remodelling results continue to develop for two to three months after each session.
Both use microneedling but they work differently. Dermapen is a mechanical microneedling device that creates controlled micro-injuries to stimulate collagen. It is suitable for mild to moderate, superficial scarring and skin texture concerns. MNRF adds radiofrequency energy delivered through insulated microneedles into the deeper dermis, making it significantly more powerful for moderate to severe atrophic scarring. Dr. K. B. Kavitha recommends one or the other, or a combination, based on your scar assessment.
When selected and applied correctly, yes. The key is matching the acid type, concentration and pH to your skin type and grade of acne. Stronger peels used on darker Fitzpatrick skin types without adequate preparation can cause post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation. Dr. K. B. Kavitha selects the appropriate peel for your skin rather than using a standard protocol across all patients.
Subcision is a minor in-clinic procedure where a fine needle is inserted under the skin to break the fibrous bands that anchor deep rolling or box scars to the underlying tissue. Once released, the scar can lift and the skin surface becomes smoother. It is specifically used when laser treatments alone cannot adequately lift tethered scars. It is often combined with MNRF or filler placement for optimal results.
This varies by treatment. Chemical peels show visible improvement within a few weeks of a course. Pico and carbon toning show gradual improvement across sessions. MNRF and fractional CO2 results develop over two to four months per session as collagen remodelling takes place. Subcision results can be visible sooner. Progress photographs at each visit make the improvement measurable rather than subjective.
