Acne scars
Severe acne often leaves small scars where the skin gets a "volcanic" shape. Acne scars are difficult and expensive to treat,[26] and it is unusual for the scars to be successfully removed completely.[citation needed] In those cases, acne scar treatment may be appropriate.
The psychological and emotional effects caused by acne scars can be as devastating to one's confidence as the acne itself.
Acne scars generally fall into two categories: physical scars and pigmented scars. Physical acne scars are often referred to as "Icepick" scars. This is because the scars tend to cause an indentation in the skins surface. Pigmented scars is a slightly misleading term, suggesting a change in the skin's pigmentation. This is not true. Pigmented scars are usually the result of nodular or cystic acne (the painful 'bumps' lying under the skin). They often leave behind an inflamed red mark. Often, the pigmentation scars can be avoided simply by avoiding aggravation of the nodule or cyst. When sufferers try to 'pop' cysts or nodules, pigmentation scarring becomes significantly worse, and may even bruise the affected area. Pigmentation scars often fade with time, and those who suffered from acne before, and have developed scars are generally relieved that the acne has gone, and emotional effects of acne scars tend to be less distressing.
Acne scars are unsightly, and it is for this reason they can be psychologically and emotionally distressing. However, there are a range of treatments available. If acne scars are causing severe psychological distress, social withdrawal and/or emotional ill-health, a physician should be contacted.
