What are the best acne scarring treatments?
There are several types of acne scar treatments
each with its unique function and each aimed at treating
different types of acne scars. If you have multiple acne scars and still experience
acne breakouts, the best approach is first to stop acne
formation while accelerating the healing of existing
lesions and wounds and thus reduce additional acne
scarring.
Several of the best acne
scarring treatments available on the market are
as follows: an antioxidant face gel that is rich in
herbal extracts and helps lift, repair and tone the
skin. For blemished acne scarred skin you can use the
Manuka face cream, which is a light moisturizer with
antiseptic manuka honey, balancing cedarwood and
soothing lavender. There is the neem oil, which kills
bacteria and contains high fatty acids that are excellent at
reducing acne scars. There is also the famous Rosa
mosqueta oil, a natural therapeutic oil, rich in
essential fatty acids that I have chosen as one of the
best acne scar treatments. Rosa Mosqueta has the potency
to reduce scar tissue even after the spots have long
gone. This oil also maintains the freshness and texture
of the skin and makes it even toned and smooth.
Because most acne scars fade away in
time (like Post inflammatory pigmentations), the above
acne scarring treatments can certainly help. That said,
some acne scars are more resistant and the only way to
treat them is by using cosmetic professional acne scar
treatment or surgical intervention.
Collagen injection is an effective acne
scaring treatment where skin collagen is injected under
the skin and is suitable for soft scars, which are
either shallow or deep.
Microdermabrasion is another good acne
scarring treatment that works for mild scarring by
scraping the external top layer of the skin, thus
stimulating and enhancing new cell growth.
Laser resurfacing is a very effective
acne scarring treatment where laser is used to flatten
and resurface the skin layer. The problem with Laser
resurfacing is that it can cause increased redness,
infection and even aggravated scars.
MSM and Alpha lipoic acid have been
used for reducing red marks with great success. Ice pick
scars are treated by dermabrasion or laser resurfacing
while flat or thin scars usually require Collagen
injections. Keloids acne scars are usually treated with
steroid injections, pulsed laser treatment combined with
carbon dioxide laser vaporization.
Another effective approach to treat
acne scarring is by changing one?€™s diet to help
accelerate wound healing, to speed up the renewal of
damaged skin tissue and thus allowing scars to heal
faster. It seems that high fat diet, as recent
experiments on rats show, can cause higher rates of
inflammation, slowed cell repair and impaired blood
synthesis as compared to the control rats. Therefore,
substituting high-fat foods with reduced fat
alternatives can have a significant positive impact on
the process of wound and scar healing. The quality of
the food that you eat also has its effect on the wound
repairing process of the skin. It seems that daily
intake of Vitamin A,E and zinc can also have dramatic effect on
cell repair.
However, the best and probably the cheapest way to
avoid all the costs and side effects of acne scarring
treatments is to stop the internal cause of acne first.
The holistic way has been proven to fix the internal
cause of acne by neutralizing the internal acne
environment that leads to acne formation. By preventing
future breakouts, you are also preventing any additional
scarring. This will enable you to focus on reducing the
existing acne scars you might have using the best
acne scarring treatments discussed in this
article.
