There may be some of you who are concerned about red marks, hyperpigmentation, or pitted scars remaining on your skin even after your acne has subsided. It is said that proper acne scar management requires distinguishing whether the remaining marks are simple acne marks or pitted scars.

Today, for those of you wondering how to get rid of acne scars, I will summarize in detail everything from the reasons why acne scars form to home care management methods and helpful dermatological procedures.

1. Reasons why acne scars form

Acne scars are said to be a skin problem that can occur due to the combined influence of the depth of inflammation, skincare habits, and the skin's regenerative capacity.

 

1) Deep inflammatory acne

It is said that deep-inflammated acne, such as pustular acne, is highly likely to lead to skin tissue damage and can leave bumpy scars during the healing process.

 

2) Excessive extrusion

It is said that attempting forceful extraction, such as squeezing acne with your hands, can damage the skin barrier and lead to red marks, hyperpigmentation, or pitted scars.

 

3) Recurring inflammation

If acne repeatedly occurs in the same area, inflammation can recur before the skin has had sufficient time to heal. Repeated inflammation can make acne scars appear more prominent.

 

4) UV exposure

It is said that hyperpigmentation can occur due to UV exposure after acne has subsided.

2. Acne Scar Home Care Method

It is said that consistent home care is important to reduce the worsening of acne scars and prevent new ones from forming.

 

1) Refrain from self-extrusion

You should avoid forcefully squeezing acne with your hands, as this can damage your skin. If extraction is necessary, it is recommended to perform it hygienically according to your skin condition or seek professional help.

 

2) Use sunscreen

Since UV rays can cause pigmentation, it is important to protect yourself thoroughly. It is recommended to always apply sunscreen before going out.

3) Avoid skin irritation

It is said that it is important to avoid irritation as much as possible during sensitive periods, as excessive use of scrubs or peels can weaken the skin barrier and lead to recurring acne or scarring.

3. How to Get Rid of Acne Scars (Dermatological Procedures)
