Acne is a teenage problem that every teenager has to deal with. Sometimes it also shows up in adulthood and is called adult acne.
It is hard to get rid of acne. If care is not taken, it can lead to permanent scars.
Acne Scars vs marks :
Acne marks are just temporary discoloration of skin. They don't need any special treatment . They go away in a few months time on their own.
Acne Scars are a cause of concern. They are permanent in nature and mean that there has been permanent damage to the skin.
There are many types of acne scar treatments available with a dermatologist for acne scar like :
1. Acid peel - Glycolic acid peel is done by dermatologist to get rid of acne scars , blackheads and whiteheads. It also helps to reduce the size of pores. The number of sessions required usually depend on the severity of the problem.
2. Laser treatment - Laser treatment is done by a dermatologist to get rid of acne scars by focusing light on the scars so that the tissue breaks and makes way for new skin to appear. Again, the number of sessions required depend on the severity of the problem.
Acne marks are relatively easier to deal with . A good hygiene routine can help get rid of the marks quickly. Never prick or touch your acne if you don't want your acne marks to turn into scars.
