Don’t let acne scars hold you back. Millions of people live every day with reminders of painful acne. Most of them still believe there is nothing that can be done to repair the scars once they’ve formed.
To figure out the best type of acne treatment for your skin, you need to know what kind of acne you have and how severe it is. This will help you get rid of your acne much faster.
Acne scars can differ in size and appearance. These scars are generally distinct and are classified as “ice pick,” “box car,” “rolling,” and “hypertrophic/keloid.”
Some people suffer from deep, cystic-type acne that has left marks deep into the dermis. The infection caused by the trapped bacteria and even the body’s own inflammatory defense mechanism can cause damage to the layers of the skin and result in scars.
While many treatments have been used to stop the acne, patients were often left with disfiguring scars and were told that only a complete surgical face-lift or painful ablative lasers could help them. Until now!
Jason Amich, DHSc, provides Functional Aesthetic consultations to men and women who want to lessen the impact that acne scaring has had on their appearance and self-confidence. Here are the top three effective, cutting-edge treatments he recommends to help you feel better in your own skin:
