What is Acne Scarring
Acne Scarring is formed when fibrous tissue is laid down to heal the injury of the skin caused by the effect of acne inflammation and bacterial infection.
Acne Scarring comes in different forms:
- Ice-pick acne scar: deep but narrow and pitted scars
- Rolling acne scars – wider scars with a sloping edge, giving the skin a wavy and uneven appearance
- Boxcar acne scars – round or oval crater-like scars
- Hypertrophic or keloid acne scars – thick, raised, and lumpy scars caused by an abnormal wound healing process
Treatment Options for Acne Scarring:
The treatment options for acne scarring depend on the type and include:
- Microneedling
- Dermabrasion
- Laser resurfacing
- Surgery (punch grafting, subcision, excision etc)
- Filler or fat implants
- Potent topical steroid
- Intralesional steroid injection
