Acne scars
The main content of acne scars typically includes information on their types (e.g., icepick, boxcar, rolling), causes (e.g., severe acne, picking), and treatment options. Treatments may involve topical creams, chemical peels, microneedling, laser therapy, or surgical procedures, tailored to the type and severity of scars for smoother, more even skin texture.
How it works
Acne scars develop when the skin’s healing process is disrupted after severe acne lesions. The body produces collagen to repair the damage, but sometimes too much or too little collagen is produced, leading to various types of scars such as icepick, boxcar, or rolling scars. Treatments work by stimulating collagen production, resurfacing the skin, or breaking down scar tissue to improve their appearance. Options include topical treatments, chemical peels, microneedling, laser therapy, or surgical procedures, depending on scar type and severity.
