Acne Scars

Acne scars are the result of inflammation of acne blemishes. The acne pore swells and a breakdown occurs in the wall of the pore. Some acne blemishes are small and the scars created are shallow and heal quickly. Sometimes the contents of blemishes spill into the surrounding tissue and cause deeper scars.

Acne scars can be of different types ranging from hyperpigmented marks to pitted scars.

Acne scars can be very difficult to hide with makeup and if they are deep then it becomes even more difficult.

​

The mode of treatment for pitted scars are to fill them by stimulating collagen production so that the skin achieves its uniformity. In case of hyperpigmentation, we can either exfoliate the superficial skin or treat the marks themselves with a laser

​

We at MedSlim™ Skin Hair & Obesity Clinic, strive to treat every skin issue holistically. It is always important to prevent Scar formation in the first place by avoiding touching the active acne. Indian skin is specifically prone to PIH i.e. Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation. Although it is difficult to treat but not impossible.

At at MedSlim™ Skin Hair & Obesity Clinic, the treatment for acne scars range from mild to moderate chemical peels to lasers.

Chemical peels will help PIH and very superficial scars.

Collagen production with the help of Microneedling, Microdermabration, Dermarollers and PRP needles is the next level of treatment.

For the most severe kind, lasers are the best option.
