ACNE SCAR TREATMENT

Acne scars are permanent indentations or raised tissues that remain on the skin long after severe acne breakouts have subsided. Unlike temporary red marks, these scars form when the body's natural wound-healing response is triggered by deep, pus-filled cysts that rupture and damage healthy surrounding tissue. As the skin attempts to repair itself, the resulting production of collagen can either be insufficient, leading to depressions, or excessive, leading to raised scars. At Clinica Errami, we understand that every scar tells a different story, which is why we offer specialized diagnostic care to identify your specific scar type and provide a path toward a smoother, clearer complexion.

Acne scarring manifests in various forms, each requiring a targeted clinical approach for effective reduction. Atrophic scars, such as Boxcar, Rolling, and Ice Pick scars, appear as sunken indentations caused by a loss of underlying support. These are often treated with techniques like Subcision to break up fibrous bands, Microneedling to stimulate collagen, or Dermal Fillers to plump the skin's surface. For Ice Pick scars, more specialized procedures like TCA Cross or punch excision may be necessary. Conversely, Hypertrophic and Keloid scars are raised tissues that may require corticosteroid injections or cryotherapy to flatten and fade the excess scar mass.
