Types of Acne Scars
Acnes are broadly classified as atrophic acne, caused by loss of tissues, and hypertrophic acne, caused by an excess of tissues. Further classification within these categories defines four main types of scares.
- Ice Pick Scar: These are narrow and deep holes in the skin and are developed by an infection from a cyst or a deep inflamed blemish. The skin appears to be pierced by some sharp instrument like an ice pick.
- Boxcar scar: These are round or oval depressions with steep sides usually wider than ice pick scars. They give an uneven look to the skin. If the tissues are destroyed by an inflammatory breakout, it leaves the skin unsupported and creates a depression. These scars can range from superficial to severe depending upon the number of tissues damaged.
- Rolling scars: These scars cause a wave-like depression across the skin. The skin looks uneven but the depressions are not sharply defined.
- Keloid scars: hypertrophic scars develop above the skin surface. They commonly result after a deep wound. Keloid scars are more severe hypertrophic scars that grow larger than the original wound.
Treatment of Acne Scars
There is a wide array of treatments available for acne scars.
- Over the counter options: There are a number of topical options that you can try to treat your acne scars. Derma rollers are also considered to help with acne scarring. These lost cost devices are mostly preferred with superficial acne.
- Punch grafting and punch excision: These methods are used for deeper scars. The skin either grafts are filled into the scars or the skin under the scar is lifted to remove acne.
- Laser resurfacing: Low-level laser is used to restore the skin damaged by the scars.
- Chemical peeling: A chemical solution is used to peel off the upper damaged skin surface. The surface that emerges from within gives is a younger, clearer, and smoother skin.
