Acne Scar Removal Available At Woodlands Wellness & Cosmetic Center

Acne scar removal treatments are safe and effective in improving the appearance of your skin.

Acne, by itself, is problematic already as it disrupts our skin. Once the acne clears, it leaves frustrating acne scars.

Acne scars are difficult to treat with over-the-counter skincare products. Yes, toners and serums may help in cleaning the pores and preventing wrinkles and fine lines.

However, acne scars penetrate the skin on a deeper level and damage the tissues beneath it. Toners and serums don’t go as deep, so that professional acne scar removal will be most helpful.

It is essential to determine what type of acne scars you have. Different types of acne scars may respond to treatments differently. Similarly, some treatments are better for particular types of acne scars than others.

Professional acne scar removal procedures will help heal scars from acne, giving you smoother and more radiant skin that over-the-counter skin care products cannot provide

Different Types of Acne Scars

• Atrophic scars – Most typical on the face. Atrophic scars are depressed scars sitting below the surrounding skin. There are three types: boxcar (U-shaped scars), ice pick (narrow and V-shaped), and rolling (wide depressions).
• Hypertrophic or raised scars – Most common with chest and back acne. These scars sit above the surface of the surrounding skin. These are caused by too much collagen during healing.
• Dark spots – Some acne does not form scars; instead, they leave behind discoloration marks where the acne was. These purple, red, or brown spots usually fade on their own over a few weeks to months.
