Box Scar:

Box scars are deep and wide scars that look like a box (hence the name)

Ice Pick Scar:

Ice pick scars are deep and narrow and very much looking like a large open pores.

Rolling Scars:

Rolling scars are continuous scaring with uneven depth to the area making the skin look uneven and textured.

Scars often become noticeable once breakouts are treated, especially when certain risk factors are present. The likelihood of scarring increases if someone:

Experiences inflammatory breakouts, such as cysts and nodules, which penetrate deeply into the skin and cause damage.
Delays treatment for inflammation, as prolonged irritation heightens the chances of acne scars.
Picks, squeezes, or pops blemishes, which exacerbates inflammation and the potential for lasting marks.
Has a family history of scarring, suggesting a genetic predisposition.

While these risk factors can indicate susceptibility, predicting who will develop acne scars remains challenging. Even those with high risk may not necessarily experience scarring.

The good news is that scarring can often be prevented by addressing skin issues promptly and effectively. Seeking treatment early can help reduce the risk of long-term marks and improve overall skin health.

Recommended Acne Scar Treatments

Dermapen (Microneedling)

The Dermapen Skin Needling System has been proven to stimulate collagen production, enhancing the skin’s ability to repair itself in areas that may not be looking their best. The procedure takes the concept of micro skin needling, a form of collagen induction therapy, to a new level, by delivering multiple, vertical needles rapidly to a localized area of the skin. The procedure leads to increased collagen production, which effectively reduces scars and renews tired-looking skin. Take your skincare to the next level with Dermapen treatments, designed to improve skin texture and reduce imperfections. Learn more about Dermapen and how it can transform your skin.

Morpheus8

Morpheus8 is an innovative therapy that utilizes a handheld device equipped with dermal needles that simultaneously emits RF technology. The needles create micro-injuries in the skin to prompt natural tissue regeneration, and the heat-like energy encourages collagen production. As the skin heals, new dermal cells form, diminishing the appearance of harsh acne scars. Discover how Morpheus 8 can transform your skin with advanced skin technology.
