Page 1 of 2
Many people recoup the original health of the skin,
without any permanent effects. But many have to suffer disfiguring
scars.
Topical skin care products and medications can work to some
extent, but more efforts and ways and means will be required to find a
lasting solution. A combination of surgical procedure and skin
resurfacing have to play their part here. There are no other shortcuts
or options to it howsoever.
The hyper pigmented mark on the skin, when the acne
lesion is healed, should not be mistaken as a scar. At this stage,
natural healing process has taken over, a post-inflammatory change. The
result may not be immediate, nature is always slow, it goes placidly.
The time frame for the scar-vanishing trick, may be anything between 6
to 12 months. If, even then the skin reverts to its original color, take
it that you are going to be gifted with a permanent scar, and think of
redrawing the plans for its permanent removal, in consultation with a
dermatologist.
There are certain practices and medicines that can
come in to play to expedite the healing process of the scar:
1.Wearing
a good sunscreen is of utmost importance. Exposure to the sun causes
damage to the skin and lengthens the process of healing.
2.Skin's
remodeling process is amenable to certain tried and tested medicines.
They heal up the post-inflammatory changes. One tested medicine is
Tretinoin (Retin A-Renova, Avita).
