Acne scars are the raised or depressed lesions of scar tissue that result from the unusual healing of inflammatory acne.
For many people, they are unwanted reminders of a painful skin condition. When acne leaves scars on the face or other visible areas,
it can lead to distress and self-consciousness, prompting individuals to seek aesthetic dermatology treatments to reduce or eliminate them.
Thankfully, there are many acne scar removal options — including natural remedies, over-the-counter products,
and medically prescribed procedures — that can significantly improve the skin’s appearance and support healthy skin regeneration.
Before choosing the best treatment approach at
The Skin DNA, E1/52 North Avenue Road, Punjabi Bagh West, New Delhi 110026,
it’s important to understand how acne scars form and the types/severity involved.
Inflammatory acne is formed by clogging of skin pores with excess sebum, dirt, dead skin cells,
and acne-causing bacteria. This acne reaches deep into the skin and results in damage to the
underlying skin tissues by swelling and breaking
down the wall of the pores. Consequently, the body responds to the damage by boosting collagen
fibers production. Unfortunately, the natural wound healing response does not go smoothly and
results in flawless skin that appears
the same as the normal, healthy skin, thereby causing acne scars.
Some acne scars are shallow and heal quickly because they are the result of inflammation
of small acne blemishes. However, some acne scars are deeper, formed because of the spilling of
the contents of acne blemished into
the surrounding, healthy skin tissues.
Getting an acne scar treatment by a skilled dermatologist at Skin DNA
Dermatology & Aesthetics Clinic can help. The doctor diagnoses the root cause and offers
optimal procedures to target the concern effectively.
Not everyone but some people having acne breakouts are likely to develop scars when
their acne clears. The risk is more in people who:
Mainly, acne scars are classified into three types:
Every type of acne scar cannot be removed with a particular acne treatment. This means every treatment option offers varying degrees of success depending upon the type and extent of acne scarring. At Skin DNA Dermatology & Aesthetics Clinic, Dr. Mayuri Jain provides the best acne scar treatment. Treatment options include:
Subcision, also referred to as subcutaneous incision-less surgery, is a minor surgical procedure to treat atrophic acne scars. The treatment involves the use of a tri-beveled hypodermic needle that is administered into the acne scar through a puncture in the surface of the skin, and its sharp edges to skilfully or carefully move under the defect to make subcuticular cuts. It is done to break apart the fibrotic strands that tether the acne scars to the underlying subcutaneous tissue. The depressed acne scars are lifted by this treatment and from the connective tissue that forms during the normal wound healing response.
A chemical peel performed at our clinic involves the use of acids/special chemicals to exfoliate the skin, i.e., remove the top affected, old skin layer and allow the healthy, clear, smooth skin from underneath to present itself, which has fewer scars. There are three types of chemical peels: mild/superficial, medium, and deep peels which vary in the strength of the acid used and the degree of penetration. The most commonly used chemical peels to treat acne scars include glycolic acid, salicylic acid, re-sorcinol, Jessner’s solution, and trichloroacetic acid. Dermatologist, Dr. Mayuri Jain can recommend the best type of chemical peel which is suitable for the patient’s skin type, the severity of acne, and acne scar type. Depending upon the type of chemical peel chosen, the treatment may be repeated several times for achieving and maintaining optimal results.
Soft tissue fillers like hyaluronic acid, autologous fat, or other collagen-stimulating
fillers like polymethylmethacrylate, poly-L-Lactic acid, silicon, and polyacrylamide can be
administered into the skin to safely and effectively
plump a few depressed/atrophic acne scars, but not ice pick scars. Most fillers provide us
temporary results lasting for 6 to 18 months while some are semi-permanent and permanent
too. Depending upon the type of filler used,
the patient may need to repeat taking the treatment after some months. Silicon and
polyacrylamide may never need replacement.
In this treatment, ablative or non-ablative lasers are used to resurface the skin by delivering thermal energy to the scarred collagen underneath the skin with or without harming the superficial skin. The treatment relies on the body’s wound healing response to boost healthy collagen production and encourages the growth of new, healthy skin to replace acne scars. It is preferred for reducing the appearance and texture of raised acne scars. Some common lasers that can be used to treat acne scars include carbon dioxide lasers, erbium YAG lasers, and pulsed-dye lasers. Dr. Mayuri Jain can help determine which laser type would be best to provide effective acne scar treatment. It is determined based on the patient’s skin type and the type of acne scars.
