Acne Scars

Dec 6

Written By Tanya H

Growing up as a teenager I always believed that my spots would miraculously disappear once I reached adulthood and I would never ever suffer from spots again and I would have beautiful clear mature skin.

But it didn't happen that way - although, I had nice clear skin in my 20's, but when I hit my mid-30s, I started to get Acne. The Acne was very sore and unsightly for approx 4 years before I'd finally conquered it. (thanks to antibiotics and a prescribe cream the doctor). But, during those 4 year's I had some bad periods where my face would flare up and I had some pretty nasty Acne - the result, I am left with some acne scars. Not very many, only a couple and they are mostly on my chin. No one notices them, but I do.

So what can I do about my Acne Scars - Is there a solution, is there available acne treatment?

Laser treatment for acne scars is available and can be used on any skin type, removing the need for surgery. Laser Acne Scar Removal can be used on surgical or acne scars anywhere on the body, including the face.

How does it work?

The pulses of laser light break down the scar tissue and stimulate new, healthy tissue to form in its place. It's said on the Pulse Laser website that within 2 to 3 treatments you can start to see improvements in the condition of the skin. And, the treatment should get rid of unwanted acne scars and pigmentations

The cause of Acne is linked to several factors that can trigger breakouts:
