Acne scarring is an unfortunate reality for many people who have had acne for a while and have finally been able to get rid of it, but found out that some nasty, permanent scars are left in place of the acne!
Laser and intense pulsed light (IPL) therapies can be very effective for acne scars. These lasers/lights work by using an intense light focused on the skin. The scar is given special attention as the light/laser penetrates through the skin "burning" off the scar tissue. The light stimulates new collagen within the skin. When the treated area heals the blemish is usually less noticeable. The effectiveness of lasers and IPL treatments depends on skin type and type of scar.
Treatment works to reduce and prevent acne from returning through reducing sebum. Sebum is an oil inside the skin that may help produce acne if it is overproduced by a body. Treatment also includes removing dead skin cells, and killing bacteria. As stated before the treatment differs for the skin type. If skin happens to be oily for example, the best type of treatment would be an alcohol based solution because it helps to dry out the oils in the skin and reduce the amount of sebum. If skin is normal to oily some creams, foams or gels. The creams however, moisturizes better than some of the foams of gels that can be used for acne treatment. If skin happens to be dry, it may be best to try a treatment that will add moisture to the skin such as an ointment or a lotion based acne treatment. The ointments however, tend to be greasy, so if you choose to use this for a treatment option, use it sparingly.
