  1. Acne scar treatment in Singapore, Types And Prices

  2. Designer helps you get your point across • With the fast-track, unstable lifestyle, it is almost impossible to control the acne breakouts, pimples and skin problems that are not only caused by environmental pollutants but also come with stress and anxiety. These pimples, breakouts, and acne are so hard to get rid of, and even if you get rid of them, they leave frustrating scars that always remind you of the bad skin you once had. • The condition is that you have to get rid of them once and for all before you start the scar treatments, as the new acne will eventually cause more scars. Other conditions and limitations also occur due to some acne medications that can not be followed alongside and inhibit the treatment's effect. Let's learn about all such factors in detail. Follow the article till the end to learn how to get rid of acne scars efficiently and forever.

  3. How does a scar form? Scars usually are born when the breakout penetrates the skin to seep deep inside the skin cells and tissue to cause damage. Acne scars are of different types; hence, each scar type responds to treatment differently. In addition, your skin can also be a big factor that can deflect the effectiveness of the treatment. Rich and deeper skin tones are not recommended for laser treatment due to the chances of scarring and pigmentation to occur.

  4. Types of scar Depressed or atrophic acne scars The most common type of scars that occur on the face, depressed or atrophic scars, lie below the surrounding skin and are formed when collagen production is reduced or hindered due to chemical cosmetics or other pathogenic agents. Boxcar, ice pick, and rolling are the three categories of atrophic or depressed acne scars. ●  Boxcar. Boxcar scars are large, sharp-edged scars in the shape of a U. These can be shallow or deep, due to which the treatment's effect is altered. The shallower scars react to the treatments better and heal faster, whereas the deeper scars take their time. These scars can be treated by treatments including microdermabrasion and gentle peels that prove effective on almost all skin types. However, the laser resurfacing before the treatment must be done cautiously, for the darker skin tones can see more scarring and pigmentary changes. ●  Ice pick. Deeper in the skin, a thinner, V-shaped scar resembles a tiny or oval hole. These might resemble the scars from chicken pox quite a bit. As they can extend deeply beneath the skin and harm nearby tissues, these scars are among the most challenging to heal. ●  Rolling. Wide depressive scars with round or irregular edges, rolling scars are named so, based on their appearance.

  5. 2. Hypertrophic or raised acne scars Commonly seen on the chest and back, hypertrophic scars result from too much collagen production during healing. These stand above the surface around the surrounding skin and can be treated easily. What types of acne scar treatments are available? Several acne scar treatmentsavailable can deal with worse acne scars and make them look like your normal, healed and nourished skin like never before. Some effective treatments that help in acne scar removal are mentioned below: ●  Dermabrasion. A common treatment that uses similar principles as the microdermabrasion kits at home. The only difference is the advanced and better tools with healthcare professionals. It helps exfoliate the top skin surface to bring out the healthy skin layer from beneath. It is effective in treating boxcars and rolling scars. ●  Chemical peels. A chemical peel is very different from a face mask. It uses a strong acid to remove the dead skin cells from the skin surface to reduce the appearance of the scars.

  6. ●  Fillers. It is a technique of filling acne scars and abrasions with fillers made of collagen or fat to plump up the skin and smooth out the appearance of the scars. This treatment may or may not be a lifetime method and last for about 6 to 18 months, after which it must be redone. ●  Injections. Similar to the fillers are the injections injected into the skin to soften and even the skin surface to reduce the scars. These injections are approved medications, including corticosteroids and chemotherapy drugs, performed routinely for a few weeks to produce better results.

  7. What do these treatments cost? Depending on the types of scars the professionals have to deal with and the type of treatment to be used, the prices can be varied from $150 to $500. OTC treatments to treat the scars Take the information with a grain of salt, but the otc treatments and acids can be effective for your friend or acquaintance who recommended you to use them. However, they cannot be equally effective for you too. It can even make your skin condition worse than before. And that is why it is very important to check in with your healthcare professional or a dermatologist before acting upon any OTC skin acid or treatment. Here are some efficient remedies you can try at home to heal acne scars:

  8. ●  Acid alpha hydroxy: Alpha hydroxy acids, or AHAs, are crucial in acne-treating substances. It assists in eliminating dead skin cells and keeps pores from becoming clogged. AHAs are also useful for lessening the visibility of acne scars and improving the appearance of your skin. ●  Acid lactate: On the benefits of lactic acid on hyperpigmentation, acne, dark spots, and acne scars, several scientific studies and research have been conducted. The outcomes have always been favorable. One safety measure you must take is to get advice before using lactic acid on your skin because sensitive skin may react by being irritated and inflamed, which can also lead to hyperpigmentation. ●  Retinoids. A quite popular name in the beauty industry that we hear of is retinoid. It is another effective ingredient that can efficiently help manage hyperpigmentation, skin problems, acne, and scars. This causes cell regeneration by significantly improving skin texture. And therefore, if using a retinoid to heal acne scars, you must always remember to wear a good sunscreen with enough SPF for protection against the sun. ●  Salicylic acid. The most common acid that almost everyone with skin problems is aware of is none other than salicylic acid. Salicylic acid comes from spot treatments, lotions, serums, and face cleansers. It is effective in unclogging pores and exfoliating the skin gently. ●  Sunscreens. Last but not least important is sunscreen. Sun exposure is extremely damaging to the skin as it causes cell degeneration, dark spots, and sunburns, making your scars more noticeable.
