First the good news. Yes, acne scars can be completely eliminated with the help of acne treatment solutions. Acne is really painful, physically as well as psychologically. It not only mutilates the face, but also damages your image in society. Teenagers having acne scars find it difficult to socialize and meet with people. Thus, finding the best acne treatment becomes a primary concern.
While seeking the best acne treatment from the wide variety of choices available, it is better to first do a little research. An acne scar removal system that suits your friend may not work for you. This is mainly because different people have different types of skin, and the severity of the acne scars also differs from person to person. So, do your homework well before settling on any type of acne treatment. While doing the research keep the following things in mind:
- Reasons behind the acne scars
- Severity of the scars
- The type of acne scars you have
- Is your skin allergic?
You might have got rid of your acne breakouts long ago, but even now you suffer because of the presence of ugly acne scars. These scars are usually the outcome of the type of acne that is commonly known as cystic acne. This is caused when the pores get blocked, typically due to the clogging of oil and dead skin cells. In the case of cystic acne, the bacteria are formed deep into the pores causing the affected area to become inflamed and painful. Even after the cysts are cured, acne scars are normally left behind in the area.
In order to effectively treat your scars you must understand the type of acne scar that you are suffering from. Ice pick acne scars are usually deep and narrow. Keloid scars are usually raised and firm on the skin surface. The Hyper pigmentation scars appear when a dark spot remains at the place of a healed blemish, after more than a year.
There are many advanced technologies that can help you to get rid of the acne scars. Some of the popular methods are laser resurfacing, dermabrasion, and collagen injection. These methods have been known to show effective results. But, again don’t opt for any of them just by listening to your friends. Consult a good dermatologist, and show him/ her, your medical record. Your dermatologist will be able to recommend the best acne treatment based on your medical record and stage of acne scars.
