Acne Scars occur when acne becomes infected and the skin repairs itself so that it remains healthy but leaves pigmented and / or pitted marks on the face, expensive] to remove.
Many] [‘cures’ ranging from creams to micro needling. commonly] used treatments for acne scars are the creams or skin masks which can (but not always) be affective but take a long time for any results to start to show as a large percentage of creams aren’t absorbed by the skin. Therefore creams are often wasted and so are not economical.
Another treatment that can be bought for acne scar removal is the derma roller. This is a device for skin needling; you simply roll the skin roller over the effected area of skin to open the pores of your epidermis causing it to believe that it is damaged activating the production of collagen and elastin which eventually heals the damaged skin.
After using the derma roller the pores on the epidermis (top layer of skin) are open for up to an hour so this is the best time to apply creams as they are a lot better absorbed when the pores are open as opposed to when the pores are closed. This reduces the waste in creams and increases the effectiveness of the derma roller.
There are more extreme methods to remove acne scars however these are all expensive and have to be carried out by professionals and then they’re not even guaranteed to work! These include; Micro dermabrasion, laser treatments, chemical peals and also skin needling can be done by a professional more vigorously using a longer needle size and numbing cream.
