Every individual may develop severe acne, however, they may scar in a different way. Your acne scar depends on what type of acne you’ve had and for how long.
Acne scars are the result of the skin’s repair of wounds caused by acne inflammation. They are disfiguring, disheartening and affect one’s self-confidence.
In scar treatment, prevention is most important. This is achieved through early medical intervention which includes preventing acne outbreaks and educating teenagers against scratching their acne.
In many cases, different types of scars appear together on the face, thus there is a need to combine different treatments to achieve the optimal result. Every treatment has its own unique advantage and strength and addresses the specific type of scar or underlying skin issue.

Acne breakouts typically penetrate the skin deeply, damaging skin and tissue below it. As soon as the acne clears, the body attempts to repair this damage. During the healing process, the body produces collagen, a substance that gives skin support. If the body produces too little or too much collagen, a scar will develop. The kind of scar that develops depends on how much collagen is produced.
Clinical treatments are recommended based on the severity of your scars. Early prevention is important to prevent further scarring. It helps to boost one’s self confidence, career search and progress.
