Acne Scar Treatment
Even when breakouts finally end, individuals are often left with residual scarring. This is one reason to treat acne in its early stages -- to avoid permanent damage to the skin. Bayou City Dermatology offers a variety of treatment options for acne scarring that have improved dramatically thanks to cutting-edge laser technology.
How Acne Scars Form
Not all acne scars are caused by picking at breakouts. The skin on your face is extremely sensitive, and severe bouts of intense inflammation -- such as what occurs with cystic acne -- can result in hypertrophic scars even without any picking or touching. Acne scarring is very common: about 80 percent of people between ages 11 and 30 will have acne, and one out of five of that group will develop scarring.
Can Acne Scars Improve?
Acne scars can lessen in depth and contour over time, but how quickly they fade depends on several factors including the severity of the acne, your age, skin type, tone, and complexion. While acne scarring cannot be fully "cured," most patients experience substantial improvement with treatment.
Treatment Options
Recent developments in laser and procedural technology have dramatically improved outcomes for acne scar treatment. Options include laser resurfacing, microneedling, chemical peels, and dermal fillers to smooth and improve the appearance of scarred skin. Your dermatologist will evaluate your scarring and recommend a personalized treatment plan based on the type, depth, and location of your scars.
