Skin Concern:
Acne Scarring
Acne scarring is a common consequence of acne breakouts, occurring when the skin heals after an inflammatory acne lesion. These scars can vary in appearance, from mild discolouration to deep pits in the skin.

How Does Acne Scarring Form?
Acne scars develop when the deeper layers of the skin are damaged during an acne breakout. The body's natural healing process can sometimes lead to the formation of abnormal scar tissue, resulting in changes in skin texture and appearance.
Types of Acne Scarring
Deep, narrow, and pitted scars resembling ice pick punctures.
Broad, box-shaped depressions in the skin.
Wavy, rolling indentations in the skin.
Raised, thick scars that extend beyond the original wound. Dermatologist consultation is recommended

Treating Acne Scarring
Cleansers: Choose gentle, non-comedogenic cleansers to avoid further irritating the skin.
Exfoliants: Incorporate AHAs (like glycolic acid) or BHAs (like salicylic acid) to gently exfoliate and improve skin turnover.
Moisturisers: Use a lightweight, hydrating moisturiser to keep the skin hydrated and support the healing process.
Serums: Consider serums with ingredients like vitamin C, niacinamide, or copper peptides to promote collagen production and brighten the skin.
