Understanding Acne Scars
Acne scars can be defined as a permanent textural changes of the skin which
causes indentations that develop as a result of severe acne.
However it is noted that scarring is not used for temporary red and brown marks left
after the acne, rather it is a permanent mark which leaves after acne subsides.
Hence these marks or scars are permanent.

How are they formed?
These scars are formed when the large pus filled spaces known as Acne, destroy the
skin tissue. When the cyst eventually empties and heals up it might leave behind a
deep scarring on the face .
In case of chest or Back, the scarring can be lumpy that is termed as hypertrophic or
keloid’s scaring.

Atrophic scars.
These are also known as depressed scars. They are usually seen on the face. They
are formed below the surrounding skin they are formed when there is an insufficient
collagen while healing the Acne.
They are further classified into :
A .Box scar
These are wide U-shaped scars with sharp edges .the scars that respond better to
the skin resurfacing treatments
B. Ice prick scars
These scars are very narrow and V shaped scars that usually go deep into the skin.

the skin.

Hypertrophic scar raised or the lumpy scars that develop on the chest and back
as the acne heals. These are present above the surface of the skin and caused
due to excessive collagen buildup.
