Essential Tips To Get Rid Your Acne Scars

Having acne scars and feeling embarrassed about your skin? Acne scars result from a complex and abnormal inflammatory response, which results in poor wound healing. Hence, pimple marks can be a cruel reminder of our skin woes. The types of scarring seen in acne include keloids or hypertrophic scars, which appear as red, firm, raised bumps.

So, today SR Clinic is going to share tips for getting rid of your acne scars today!

1. Massage with cream

Creams and massage can help to reduce acne scars. This method is undoubtedly worth a try, since it’s comparatively easy, convenient and affordable. You can massage your own skin, or have it massaged professionally if you prefer.

2. Chemical Peels

Fruit Acid, Salicylic Acid or Trichloroacetic Acid (TCA) are used, in varying concentrations, to remove the outermost layers of skin. As skin heals, scars may be less visible and your complexion will be smoother and more even overall.

3. Microdermabrasion

This is a relatively gentle form of dermabrasion where the upper layers of the skin are removed mechanically with the help of small crystals. The treatment has a positive effect on the complexion and is suitable for dry skin, large pores or other scars too.

4. Laser therapy

With laser therapy, the skin is injured in a targeted way so as to activate its natural self-healing process. Once skin is renewed, the complexion appears smoother.

There is a wide range of laser variants available and this treatment should only be conducted by an experienced dermatologist in order to avoid injuries to surrounding skin. Unfortunately, again, multiple sessions are required for visible, long-lasting results.
