Acne scars can be a persistent reminder of past breakouts, impacting your confidence and skin texture. At the Stem Cell & PRP Institute of L.A., we offer innovative, non-surgical acne scar treatments using PRP (Platelet-Rich Plasma), stem cell therapy, and microneedling to naturally stimulate collagen production, soften scar tissue, and rejuvenate your skin.
Under the care of Dr. Padra Nourparvar, a board-certified physician with advanced procedural training, patients throughout Los Angeles, Beverly Hills, West Hollywood, and nearby neighborhoods receive personalized treatments designed to improve skin smoothness and overall appearance.
I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible care I received from Dr. Padra Nourparvar in addressing my persistent sciatica back pain. After being referred to him for his innovative shockwave treatment, I experienced life-changing results that have left me pain-free and immensely satisfied.
From the moment I stepped into Dr. Nourparvar’s clinic, I was met with a warm and welcoming atmosphere. His knowledgeable and compassionate approach immediately put me at ease. What stood out most was his utilization of the latest technology in shockwave treatment, which proved to be a game-changer in my journey to recovery.
What Causes Acne Scars?
Acne scars form when inflammation damages the skin’s underlying collagen during breakout healing. Common types include:
Atrophic scars
Depressed scars such as icepick, boxcar, and rolling scars
Hypertrophic scars
Raised or thickened scar tissue
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Dark spots remaining after acne heals
These scars can affect skin texture and tone, making your skin look uneven or aged.

How Do PRP, Stem Cells & Microneedling Help Acne Scars?
- PRP uses your own platelet-rich plasma to release growth factors that stimulate collagen and skin regeneration, accelerating healing and reducing scar depth.
- Stem cell therapy enhances tissue repair and promotes healthier skin remodeling at a deeper level.
- Microneedling creates tiny controlled injuries to the skin, triggering natural collagen production while allowing PRP to penetrate more effectively.
Combined, these treatments can smooth scars, improve skin texture, and restore a youthful glow — all without surgery.
What to Expect During Your Treatment
- Consultation: Evaluation of scar type, skin condition, and treatment goals.
- Preparation: Blood draw and processing for PRP; stem cell preparation if applicable.
- Microneedling: Controlled skin punctures to stimulate collagen.
- PRP & Stem Cell Application: Application or injection to enhance healing and regeneration.

Multiple sessions spaced 4-6 weeks apart usually yield the best results.
