Which factors affect the cost of acne scar treatment in Singapore?

Doctor's Answer

Thank you for your question.

This article on Acne Scar Treatment Costs would interest you.

The Type and Severity of your scars as well as the experience of your doctor are important factors affecting cost of acne scar treatment.

Another factor is the type of Technology being used.

For example, for treatment of complex scars, I personally use Fillers after Subcision. The choice of Filler affects the cost of treatment. Examples include: hyaluronic acid-based fillers like Belotero, Restylane or calcium-based fillers like Radiesse. I will tailor the appropriate treatment for my patient based on scar type as well as cost concerns.

Similarly, there are a wide range of lasers for treatment of acne scars. Popular options are the traditional Fractional C02, non-ablative Infini RF (radio-frequency) and even Picosecond Lasers. Each of these Laser technologies differ in terms of Social Downtime, Side-effects, Results and Cost.

I suggest that you speak to a trusted doctor who specialises in Scar treatments for a customised treatment plan so that you get good results at a good price.

Hope that this helps!
