Understanding How Acne Scarring Occurs

Acne scars typically develop as a result of inflamed blemishes caused by clogged pores filled with excess oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells. When these pores swell, causing a break in the follicle wall, deep lesions are more likely to leave scars as opposed to more superficial breaks. As the skin attempts to repair these lesions with new collagen fibers, the texture of the skin can look uneven.

There are two main types of acne scars:

• Atrophic scars: These are depressions in the skin caused by a loss of skin tissue.
• Hypertrophic scars: These appear as raised tissue on the skin due to excess collagen during the healing process.

Treatment Options for Acne Scars

At Kleydman Dermatology in Brooklyn, NY & Upper East Side, NY, we offer several treatment modalities to address acne scars effectively:

 

• Chemical Peels: These peels help remove the outer layer of the skin, encouraging collagen production and cellular renewal to fill in the scarred areas.
• Microneedling: This technique uses fine needles to create microchannels in the skin, promoting the natural production of collagen and elastin to repair and smooth the skin.
• Laser Treatments: Utilizing advanced laser technology like the Laser Genesis, Excel V+, and Ablative CO2 Laser, we can target and diminish the redness associated with acne scars, while evening out skin pigmentation and texture.
