Scaring is a very common sequel of pimples (estimated to affect 95% of people with pimples). The main culprit is the abnormal healing because of inflammation within the dermal layer of skin. Scars are either atrophic or hypertrophic. Atrophic acne scars:-These are the most common type of acne scars (account for approximately 75% of all acne scars) happened because of loss of collagen from the healing response of body. Atrophic acne scars are further classified as ice-pick scars, boxcar scars, and rolling scars.
Ice-pick scars are narrow and deep scars that extend into the dermis. Boxcar scars are indented scars with sharp borders oval or round in shape and variable in size.
Rolling scars are wider than icepick and boxcar scars and have a wave - like pattern. Hypertrophic scars are relatively uncommon, and are happened because of increased collagen content after the abnormal healing process. Treatment : Inducing Collagen is the best way to treat scars. Depending upon the extent and severity of the scars the treatment differs. We will examine your skin and based on the extent severity we will suggest the perfect regime.
