Acne Scar & Pores Treatment
Acne scars & pores treatment, where we understand the impact that acne scars and enlarged pores can have on one’s confidence.
What Causes of Acnes & Acne Scars?
Acne is one of the most common skin conditions that can leave facial scarring and enlarged pores, making skin appear uneven, bumpy and prematurely aged.
When the hair follicles become clogged with excess oil and dead skin cells, pimples form. As the body fights off the trapped bacteria, inflammation and breakouts occur. Popping or picking at pimples pushes debris further into the skin, destroying surrounding tissue.
Once the acne clears, the damaged skin struggles to heal itself resulting in textural irregularities and scar tissue. Some scars appear as indentations or pits, while others show up as raised bumps. Discoloration like red or brown marks may also remain.
With severe acne, the repeated cycle of inflammation creates more severe scarring. Cystic acne can damage deep into the dermis allowing bacteria to enlarge pores and cause loss of tissues. Much of the structural proteins like collagen are destroyed.
Other factors like sun exposure, genetics, and aging contribute to enlarged pores over time as well. UV radiation degrades collagen and skin loses its elasticity. Pores stretch out and appear more noticeable. Ethnicity and hormones also influence pore size.
All of these factors can make skin look bumpy, uneven, and feel rough. Scars, marks and large pores create an aged appearance well beyond one’s actual years.
