Acne Scars Treatment

Acne can be quite painful and embarrassing when it is severe. Most teenagers who go through puberty face this skin issue that is caused due to hormonal imbalances. Acne can range from manageable to debilitating. More often than not, it is only associated with one’s teenage years however, adult acne is also quite prevalent.

Adult acne occurs as a result of the inflammation of the hair follicles and blockage of the pores by oil and dead skin cells. The lesions caused by the follicles cause pimples.

Many women also experience acne during the first and second trimesters of their pregnancy. In some cases, the outbreak might be acute.

The scars left behind by acne can last a lifetime if it is left untreated.

Scar revision is the process of collagen remodeling of the skin to lift up the scars. This can be done using the process of laser scar removal, by skin polishing or by administering chemical peels to the affected area.

As if acne itself wasn’t enough, it can also cause scarring! The bad news is that they will not fade on their own, the good news is that they can be treated!

Chemical Peels

The topical application of a chemical peel on one’s acne scars has been proven to be effective in acne scar treatment. They also help to correct uneven skin tones, smoothening out wrinkles and decrease hyperpigmentation.

The procedure includes the removal of the upper layer of dead skin cells to reveal lower layers that are new and improved.

Micro-Needling

Micro-needling includes the insertion of tiny, painless needles into the skin through punctures to disturb the skin. This results in the opening up of the skin to better absorb serums and creams that can facilitate the removal of acne scars. It causes the skin to have a healing response by allowing itself to be nourished by acne creams.

The primary healing of acne scars is reliant on repeated and continuous laser treatment. It is imperative to go in for the sessions as advised by the dermatologist to see lasting and evident results.

Post-procedure care is very important when it comes to acne scar removal. It is vital to ensure that there is no infection that could turn leads to more scars on the skin.

If pimples do reoccur, it is important not to pop them yourself or keep caressing it repeatedly. This could result in more acne scars.
