What to Do with Acne Scars

May 13, 2014

We’ve all dealt with acne in one way or another. And when we see a pimple, nothing’s more tempting than popping it right then and there to get it over with. But this somewhat simple maneuver produces a long-lasting aftermath – acne scars.

There are many types of acne scars. They can range from deep pits to angular or wavelike marks. Some may even develop hyperpigmentation or dark marks. Scars are the body’s way of repairing damage. When you see deep acne scars, it is because your skin took a huge collagen loss from an inflammation.

The easiest way to a clear face is to not pick at your acne, but sometimes acne is so severe that scarring is unavoidable. While scar creams and moisturizers do help, some people turn to lasers for a more noticeable change. Our MediSpa office provides a skin rejuvenation method that helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and acne scars. We will provide you with after-care instructions like avoiding exfoliants and which skin care products can speed the healing process and maintain the health of your skin. Contact our MediSpa offices and schedule an appointment today!

If you have any questions about acne scars or about changes in your skin, please call us today at 865-690-9467. Skin health is an important part of total body wellness. Schedule an appointment with one of our board certified physicians to get your skin the care it needs so it can reach its fullest, healthiest potential.
