What is Acne?

Acne: a common skin condition, yet often shrouded in confusion. It's not just about teenage breakouts – it can affect individuals of any age. At CLNQ Manchester, we believe knowledge is power. So, let's peel back the layers! We'll delve into the causes, triggers, and different types of acne, empowering you to make informed choices for healthy, clear skin. From understanding clogged pores to navigating treatment options, we'll navigate this skin journey together, revealing the science behind the blemishes.

Understanding Acne Scars

Types of Acne Scarring

Acne can leave behind its mark, but understanding the different types of scarring empowers you to find the best treatment. Let's explore the common types of scarring, from pitted craters to raised bumps, and discover the journey to a smoother, more confident you.

Depressed | Pitted Acne Scars

These most common scars are like tiny craters or pockmarks, often caused by deeper acne inflammation. They can vary in size and depth, and while they may not be as noticeable as other types, they can still affect texture and self-esteem.

Boxcar Scars

Similar to depressed scars, boxcar scars are wider and deeper, with sharp, defined edges. They often appear in clusters, creating a "cobblestone" texture on the skin.

Ice Pick Scars

These narrow, deep scars resemble tiny ice pick marks, often leaving a sharp, pointed appearance. While they may not be as wide as other scars, their depth can make them noticeable.

Raised Acne Scars

Unlike the depressed scars mentioned above, raised scars form when excess collagen accumulates during healing. They can appear as firm bumps, nodules, or keloids, which are larger, scar-like growths that can extend beyond the original acne site.

Additional Reading

  • Keloid Scars
    Keloid scars are the most severe type of raised scar, growing beyond the original acne area and forming thick, irregular bumps. They're more common in people with darker skin tones.
  • Hypertrophic Scars
    Hypertrophic scars are raised and thick, but they stay within the original boundaries of the acne lesion. They're more common on the chest and back than on the face.

Acne Scarring Frequently Asked Questions

Will acne scars fade on their own?

While some mild acne scars may fade over time, deeper or more pronounced scarring typically requires treatment for significant improvement. The type and severity of your scars play a significant role in their natural fading potential.

How long does it take for acne scars to improve with treatment?

The timeline for scar improvement varies depending on the type of treatment and the severity of your scars. Generally:

  • Non-invasive treatments: Microneedling, chemical peels, and topical therapies may take several months to see noticeable results, with gradual improvement continuing over six to 12 months.
  • Minimally invasive treatments: Laser resurfacing or fillers can offer faster results, often within three to six months, with continued improvement for up to a year.
  • Surgical treatments: Procedures like subcision or excision can provide the most dramatic results but may have longer healing times and require additional care.

Individual healing rates vary; some scars may require a combination of treatments for optimal results.
