Poorly controlled acne frequently results in scarring.  Scars secondary to acne can lead to physical disfigurement and the psychosocial impact can be profound. Early and effective treatment of acne is the best means to minimize and prevent acne scarring.

Variety of therapies may reduce the prominence of acne scars and multimodality approach to scar treatment is usually necessary to achieve the best cosmetic results. T

A great majority of acne scars are atrophic (depressed) scars that result from skin inflammation and loss of tissue.  Atrophic scars can range from small “icepick” depressions to wide and deep “boxcar” scars.
