Acne Scars Scaring:Let Me Help


Prevention and Treatment



1. Prevention
(famous quote: Prevention is better than cure)

The best way of preventing or limiting the extent of scars is to get the acne treated as early as possible. The more you prevent or limit the inflammation, the more will be the chances to prevent the appearance of the scars.Any person with acne can have the scars, so its better to be under the treatment of a good Dermatologist.


2.Treatment

If anyone got the scars left after acne its better to treat them as early as possible because the more you delay the worst will be the condition.
some of the present day solutions available are:

1.Chemical therapy

In this technique, a chemical solution is used to improve and smooth the texture of the facial skin, due to which the dead skin got removed and the new skin appears gradually. The regenerated skin is much smoother and less wrinkled than the older one.

2.Laser therapy

Lasers of various wavelength and intensity are used to restructure the scar tissue.The redness of skin around healed acne lesions are also removed. The type of laser used is determined by the type of skin, severity of the scar and other factors as well. This is also known as Fractional laser resurfacing. Hereby patients may have to take around 1 to 3 treatments for acne scar removal.

3.Dermabrasion

Currently this is the most effective Treatment available.Hereby a High-Speed Brush is rolled over the surface of the skin to remove the scars.It is a cosmetic medical procedure. Laser Dermabrasion is much easier to control, much easier to gauge, and is practically bloodless compared to Classic Dermabrasion.

4.Microdermabrasion

A more advanced Technology whereby instead of high-speed brush we are using the Aluminum oxide crystals, passing through a vacuum tube to remove surface skin. This is more natural skin care and is less invasive Technology.The goal of this procedure is to eliminate the superficial layer of the skin (Epidermis).It is mostly used on scars that appear during puberty or many years later.

5.Collagen Injections.

Collagen is a normal biological protein of the body found in the connective tissues.It is injected under the skin to stretch and fill both the superficial and deep scars.This a part of the cosmetic surgery.
