Many people struggle with red or brown marks left on their skin even after acne clears. Especially if you've popped your acne or have severe inflammation, pigmentation or scarring can remain.

Today, I'll explain everything from why acne scars appear, to how to get rid of them at home, to treatments you can get at a dermatologist.

1. Why do acne scars appear?

Areas where acne was severe often leave scars even after the inflammation subsides. The reasons for acne scars are as follows:

 

1) Skin tissue damage

First of all, it is said that acne scars can appear when skin tissue is damaged during the inflammatory process.

 

2) Melanin pigment changes

It's also said that the dark marks left after acne clears are caused by changes in the melanin pigment in the skin. The wound healing process can stimulate melanin production, leaving acne scars in the form of pigmentation.

 

3) Incorrect extrusion

It is said that squeezing acne with your hands or applying strong stimulation can lead to acne marks such as acne scars or pitting marks.

2. Getting Rid of Acne Scars (Home Care)

It's important to practice home care to prevent or improve acne scars. Here are some home remedies for acne scars.

 

1) UV protection

They say that UV protection is crucial for eliminating acne scars. Because UV rays can exacerbate pigmentation, it's important to apply plenty of sunscreen when going outside.

2) Use scar ointment

Using scar ointment can also be a good way to manage acne scars. Apply a thin layer of ointment two to three times a day. Using it in conjunction with a microneedle patch can produce a synergistic effect.

 

3) Use regeneration cream

It's also said that using a regenerative cream can help manage acne scars. It's recommended to use a cream that strengthens the skin barrier and promotes regeneration.
