Acne scarring occurs when the skin’s natural healing process is disrupted during or after an acne breakout. When the skin tries to repair itself, collagen production may be irregular, leading to the formation of scars. These scars can manifest in various forms, including:
Icepick Scars: Narrow, deep scars that resemble small, V-shaped holes in the skin. Boxcar Scars: Broad depressions with defined edges, often resembling the scars left by chickenpox. Rolling Scars: Broad depressions with a rolling or undulating appearance. Hypertrophic Scars: Raised scars resulting from excess collagen production during the healing process.
