Acne refers to cases of congested pores, whiteheads, blackheads, pimples, pustules and cysts. When such skin inflammation does not heal properly, it leaves behind scarring that may be pitted, raised or discoloured. A cosmetic concern, acne scars can affect the individual’s self-esteem and quality of life. However, this is a fixable concern – acne scars of most if not all types and severity can be effectively treated with the right treatment plan customised for them by an experienced dermatologist. Get evaluated by an accredited dermatologist to determine your necessary treatment plan.

“ The important thing when it comes to treating acne is patience. Most of the treatment options for acne may take one to three months to start working. So, it’s important to give each regimen or drug enough time to work before giving up on it and moving on to other treatments.”
A dermatologist is medically trained to accurately identify the type of the scarring, and prescribe the right treatment. The long-term management of acne scars should also be paired with holistic dermatological care to reduce the frequency and intensity of future inflammatory outbreaks, particularly so for acne-prone patients.
