Acne scars are a common skin concern resulting from untreated inflammatory acne, bacterial infections, or skin trauma caused by popping pimples. Understanding the type of acne scar you have is essential to choosing the most effective treatment. Acne scars generally fall into three categories:
Pseudo-scars: Red marks left behind after inflammatory acne
Depressed scars: Tiny pits or indentations caused by skin tissue loss
Hypertrophic scars: Raised lumps formed above the surface of acne
Effective acne scar treatment depends on the type and severity of the scar. Advanced medical aesthetics technologies are used to restore smooth, healthy-looking skin while minimizing discomfort and downtime. Treatment options include laser therapies, radiofrequency treatments, dermal fillers, PRP injections, microneedling, and chemical peels. Combining multiple modalities often yields the best results, and a consultation with a dermatologist or aesthetic specialist is recommended to create a personalized treatment plan.
