What medicine can be used to eliminate acne scars?

I believe that many people are tortured by the skin problem of acne on their faces. In fact, acne is not the most terrible thing. The most terrible thing is the acne scars left on the face after the acne heals. Acne scars are much more difficult to remove than acne. Moreover, if some people do not pay attention to the removal of acne scars, acne scars will follow a person throughout his life and cause great aesthetic impact on a person's face. So what kind of medicine should I use to remove acne scars?

There are three common types of acne scars:

1. The more serious ones are acne pits or hyperplastic convex scars (acne scars);

2. Red acne marks with milder symptoms (red acne marks);

3. Black acne marks (black acne marks) caused by abnormal melanin deposition.

We need to have different treatment methods for different acne scars:

The first type of acne scar: pitted acne pits and hypertrophic convex scars

Degree coefficient: ★★★★☆

This type of acne scar has often damaged the dermis, mostly because of severe acne inflammation or improper squeezing of acne, which leads to greater damage and inflammation, capillary dilation and hyperplasia, inflammatory cell aggregation, granulation tissue formation, and fibrous connective tissue production.

This type of acne scar is difficult to treat. It is caused by local collagen loss or hyperplasia in the dermis and can only be cured by professional medical cosmetic surgery.

The second type of acne scar: red acne scar

Difficulty level: ★☆

Red acne marks are caused by inflammation of cells in the acne area, which causes capillary dilation. After the acne subsides, the inflammation has not completely subsided, and there is still slight inflammation. The permeability of the capillaries has not shrunk to its original state, and the local inflammation is congested, thus forming temporary red marks. These marks will gradually fade away with skin metabolism, in as fast as 1-2 weeks, or as slow as more than 3 months.

It becomes more noticeable during exercise or in hot environments as body temperature rises. And strict sun protection is required, otherwise melanin deposition is easy to form, which may turn into black acne marks. Here, please pay attention to distinguish between red acne marks, brown acne marks, and black acne marks.

To deal with this type of red acne scars, the core idea is: anti-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory. When the situation is serious, doctors usually use anti-inflammatory drugs, such as antibiotics or hormones, for a short period of time; skin care products focus on auxiliary skin care products containing anti-inflammatory ingredients;

Drug recommendation: Please follow the doctor's advice before use!

1) Compound Pien Tze Huang Ointment (non-hormone, non-antibiotic)

2) Paeonol ointment

The third type of acne scar: black acne scar 3

Difficulty level: ★★☆

Black acne marks are caused by abnormal precipitation of melanin after acne inflammation. They are black or brown in color. They will gradually fade, but they last longer, about 6-12 months, or even longer. The difficulty of fading acne marks depends on the depth of melanin deposition. Those above the dermis are easier to remove.

If the melanin is deposited below the dermis or even in the subcutaneous tissue, it will be difficult for the drug ingredients to reach the target smoothly. Relying on the skin's own slow metabolism, the metabolism time will be doubled; and inflammation and ultraviolet rays will aggravate the production of melanin, so this type of acne scars also need to pay attention to anti-inflammatory and sun protection.

To deal with acne scars, the core idea is to prevent the formation of new melanin and speed up the metabolism of melanin. In fact, the idea is very similar to freckle removal. Using freckle cream, fruit acid essence and other products, combined with sun protection and daily care, the black marks will fade away faster.
