Acne Scar Treatment in Georgetown
What is Acne Scarring
Acne scarring occurs when severe or persistent acne lesions damage the skin's collagen and tissue, leading to visible scars. These scars can take various forms, including:
-
Ice Pick Scars: Deep, narrow scars that extend into the skin, resembling small holes or pits.
-
Boxcar Scars: Broad, shallow depressions with sharply defined edges, giving the skin a pitted appearance.
-
Rolling Scars: Wave-like indentations that create a wavy texture on the skin's surface.
-
Hypertrophic Scars: Raised, firm scars that develop when the body produces too much collagen during the healing process.
-
Atrophic Scars: Depressed scars that result from a loss of tissue, commonly seen in ice pick and boxcar scars.
