Treatments To Reduce Acne Scarring
Treatments for Acne Scarring
Acne affects millions of Americans each year. Many people have
the common pimple or breakout, but for a few of the unlucky acne
sufferers, acne can cause scarring. Acne scarring usually
happens in severe acne cases.
There are three types of common acne scarring. Keloids, which
are caused by your body creating excess tissue. The other two
common scars are caused by the loss of tissue. They include Ice
pick scars and Depressed fibrotic scars.
Keloids resemble small bubbles on the skin due to collagen.
Collagen is a substance created within the skin. Collagen is the
natural response to skin injuries, but too much collagen can
cause bubbles on the surface. Keloids are known to fade as time
goes by.
Ice pick scars are the most common scars due to loss of tissue.
They resemble jagged holes in the skin, just like an ice pick
would make.
Most of these scars can be found on the cheeks.
Depressed fibrotic scarring are small craters formed on the
face. These scars come in various sizes and are due to a loss of
tissue in the face. They are also common in the cheeks of
individuals. Depressed fibrotic scars can become Ice pick scars
over time.
If you are experiencing acne scarring, consult your
dermatologist on treatments available to rid your face of acne
and clear your scarring.
