Concerned about acne scars?
We treat them with Cleo’s technical skill
specialized in acne scars
“Nothing I tried made a difference.”
“I had Potenza but it did not improve as much as I expected.”
“I don’t know which treatment suits me.”
We have received many such voices from patients troubled by acne scars.
At Cleo Beauty Clinic, since opening we have focused on research into acne scar treatment, and while seriously facing each person’s skin, we have so far provided treatment tomore than 3,000 patients troubled by acne scars.
Acne scar treatment is not something that improves simply by applying a machine.
“Appropriate skin diagnosis,” “the shortest treatment plan,” and “high technical skill that raises the effect of each treatment.”
Only when these three are in place can improvement be achieved efficiently.
That is why many patients choose Cleo Beauty Clinic.
“Acne Scar Concern Counseling” started in July 2026
“What treatment does my acne scar need?”
“I don’t know where to start.”
For such people, we have started specialist counseling specialized in acne scars.
Specialist staff check your skin condition in detail and propose the optimal treatment plan for you.
Counseling fee: ¥1,100 (tax included)
Counseling + VISIA skin analysis: ¥3,300 (tax included)
*If you purchase treatment or cosmetics of ¥3,301 or more on the day, the counseling fee is free.
3 Reasons Patients Troubled by Acne Scars Choose Our Clinic
01. High acne-scar-improving effect per session
Acne scar treatment is not as simple as “it improves if you receive treatment.”
Even when using the same machine, for example in the case of Potenza,needle depth, irradiation energy, number of passes, method of stacking shots, drug delivery settings, and selection of the agent deliveredand many other factors greatly change the treatment effect.
That is why our clinic places the utmost importance not only on “which machine to use” but onhow to irradiateabove all else.
Our Potenza treatment pursues irradiation methods suited to each person’s skin condition under the technical supervision of the Potenza specialist nurse “Norine,” who gives technical instruction and lectures on Potenza nationwide.
We carefully determine the type and depth of craters, the presence of redness, and even skin type, and adjust the irradiation method for each patient. We do not provide uniform treatment in which “everyone gets the same settings.”
What we aim for is“raising the improvement effect in a single treatment.”
Of course, in most cases acne scar treatment requires multiple sessions. However, we believe that raising the effect of each treatment becomes, as a result, the shortcut to improvement.
Our staff regularly hold case reviews and technical training and constantly update irradiation methods and treatment strategies.
That is why we also receive many visits from patients who say,“I had Potenza in the past but was not satisfied.”.
02. Thorough assessment to correctly determine your skin
Even when we say acne scars,
- craters
- redness (post-inflammatory erythema)
- Pigmentation
- enlarged pores
- acne that still keeps recurring
and so on — the causes and conditions differ by patient.
What is happening in skin with crater (scar) acne scars
What is happening in skin with red acne scars
What is happening in skin with pigmented acne scars
Furthermore, it is not unusual for several of these to overlap.
For this reason, our clinicdoes not take the approach of “providing Potenza because the patient wants Potenza.”.
First, we carefully diagnose your current skin anddetermine what is preventing improvement of your acne scars— this is what we value above all.
We have also introduced a high-precision skin analyzer that is also used in the field of dermatology in the United StatesVISIA.
It analyzes skin conditions that are hard to see with the naked eye, and we decide the treatment policy based on objective data.
03. A treatment plan that aims for improvement by the shortest route
After correctly diagnosing your skin condition, we propose a treatment plan that considers even “which treatment is most effective, and in what order.”
For example,
- whether improving craters or color first can be expected to bring greater visible change
- whether to start with Potenza or do IPL first
- whether a highly invasive treatment should be done now, in view of an important event a month from now
- even with Potenza, whether to target craters or redness
- which delivered agent is optimal
- what to use for home care
and so on — we design the whole treatment comprehensively.
Proposing a realistic plan you can continue without strain, while taking your lifestyle and budget into account, is also something we value.
Aiming for improvement by the shortest route, without detours.
That is Cleo Beauty Clinic’s acne scar treatment.
