Having acne, especialy on the face, is a very traumatizing experience - and it cen get even worse if, after your face acne has been cures, you end up with something to remind you of your times with acne?
The acne scars. They come in different shapes and forms, and with different names like crater scars, ice-pick scars, and so on.
Acne scars are very visible, the skin in the area looks patchy and uneven, and they can cause you big grief, making you feel embarased about your skin and your look.
Acne can be caused by many factors, genetic, environmental, and so on.
These factors stimulate the sebaceous gland in the skin to produce sebum in excess, which mixed
with the dead cells on the surface of the skin cause the clogging of the pores,
and thus the appearance of acne spots.
The
acne scars occur when the acne is not treated properly and not allowed to heal.
Hard to resist actions like picking and squeezing the acne spots only make the acne
worse, spread the infection around the affected area and cause acne scars.
Other
acne scars, also known as keloids, are caused by an increased tissue formation as the skin cells respond to inflammation and injury.
By over-producing the cell substance called collagen, this accumulate in the fibrous masses around the acne spot, causing a smooth but firm acne scar.
Another very common type of
acne scars if the one caused by the loss of tissue, like superficial or deep soft scars, depressed fibrotic acne scars, ice-pick acne scars and more...
After being traumatized, the skin colour changes sometimes, leaving a small dark spot. Many believe that to be dirt, so they try to remove it, and instead they only irritate an already traumatized skin, causing more infection, and without a doubt, an acne scar.
