Acne scar is caused by the body’s response to injury caused by inflammatory acne lesions. Most often, scarring results from severe nodular acne that occurs deep in the skin. However scarring also may arise from more superficial inflamed lesions.

In most cases, the acne scars that people get are mild type. Some of them may have the scars that look significant even to others. To minimize the risk of permanent acne scars, it will be better too prevent and treat the acne right away as sometimes even mild acne can cause scarring. However you can treat these acne scars by using the acne scar removal that I recommended in my website.

Below are the 2 reasons due to the types of tissue response to the inflammation of acne:

Increased Tissue Formation

One of the reasons that acne scars form is the increased tissue formation which known as keloids or hypertrophic scars. They are the most common type of acne scars that bulge out and look like lumps. Due to the excessive amounts of collagen production, these scars are associated with an exaggerated formation of scar tissue.

When the skin cells injury, our body will be produce more collage. An irregularly-shape scar will form as the collage become piled up in fibrous masses. Moreover, the size of it can be increased till look like a minor injury. It is known as an ‘over-scarring’ and usually occur in dark-skinned individual.

Loss of Tissues

Acne scars resulting from loss of tissue are more common than scars resulting from increased tissue formation. Some appear as holes, pits, or craters in the skin which called atrophic scar or crateriform scars. These depressed, cavity-like, inward-directed scars are associated with a lack of tissue that occurs when the inflammation from healed acne causes destruction to the skin. The scar tissue contracts and binds the skin down.

It is not easy to treat acne scar, however you can do it with proper treatment. Nowadays, there are various types of acne scar removal that you can use based on the kind of skin you have and the kinds of scars you have. However for some people who have a combination of different types of scars, one acne scar treatment may not work on them all.
