Types of Acne Scars
1️⃣Post-Inflammatory Erythema (Red spots)
2️⃣Post-Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (Dark spots)
3️⃣Atrophic acne scars (icepick, boxcar, or rolling scars)
Treatment really depends on the type of scarring, with atrophic acne scars usually requiring office procedures performed by a dermatologist
Reminder: If you do have acne that causes these deep atrophic scars, it’s important to aggressively treat the acne. Acne is easy to treat, scars are hard to treat!
Product Recommendations:
-Differin gel
-La Roche Posay adapalene
There are also hypertrophic and hypopigmented acne scars, which are much less common. Full YouTube video on acne scars coming soon!
