As the saying goes, everyone has a desire for beauty. I believe every friend hopes to have a fair and tender complexion, but reality is always so cruel. It can be said that every "acne fighter" has a bloody and tearful history of fighting acne. After finally getting rid of acne, there are still many acne marks and spots on their face. What should they do?! How to remove acne scars and pigmentation on the face?
How are acne scars formed?
In fact, there are different types of acne scars and their causes are also different. Only by understanding how they are formed can we treat the causes accordingly.
1. Red acne scars
Red acne scars are mainly caused by inflammatory and immune reactions. During the inflammatory phase of acne, inflammation can cause dilation or proliferation of capillaries in the dermis layer. After the inflammation subsides, the dilated capillaries do not immediately disappear, resulting in the formation of red acne scars.
Take good care of daily sun protection, and red acne scars can naturally disappear with metabolism within a few weeks or months (usually three months).
2. Black acne scars
Black acne scars are a type of pigmentation that occurs after inflammation. During the skin inflammation of acne, melanocytes are stimulated and abnormally proliferate, leading to the deposition of a large number of melanin particles and the formation of black acne scars. Ultraviolet radiation (mainly sun exposure) is also an aggravating factor. If daily sun protection is not done well, red acne scars can turn into black acne scars, and the time and difficulty of removing them will increase. The time and difficulty of removing black acne scars are related to the depth of melanin particles in the skin, with the epidermal layer being relatively easy and the dermis layer being relatively more difficult.
2. How to remove acne scars and pigmentation on the face? The prerequisite for avoiding acne scars is to actively treat acne, which requires consulting a dermatologist to choose a treatment plan. Do not believe in various advertisements for treating acne. At the same time, avoid local squeezing and scratching of acne, as adverse physical stimulation may increase the likelihood of pigmentation. At present, there are several methods for treating acne scars:
1. Self subsiding
After the formation of pigmentation after inflammation, it is necessary to pay attention to strict sun protection, including physical covering as mentioned earlier and applying broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF ≥ 30 externally. As time goes on, the color will gradually fade and improve, usually without the need for treatment, but the process may take several months or even years.
2. External application
If you want to remove pigment as soon as possible and improve the facial appearance, you can consider external application of skin topical drugs, such as heparin sodium products. For example, the "Qizheng" low molecular weight heparin sodium gel produced by Qilu Pharmaceutical Group is a "universal" scar removing small blue tube. It has anti-inflammatory, anti itch, softening collagen, inhibiting fibroblast proliferation, promoting vascular regeneration, restoring local blood supply, and improving pigmentation.
3. Laser treatment
For red acne scars, strong pulsed light (photons), pulsed dye lasers, and other treatments can generally be chosen. The main principle of action is to close locally dilated blood vessels, thereby reducing local redness.
The above is an introduction to how to remove acne scars and pigmentation on the face. I hope it is helpful to everyone!
