Acne Scarring

The impulse to pick at pimples and pustules is strong, but it eventually leads to scarring. Acne scarring makes the skin look "pitted," like the peel of an orange. Left untreated, these scars can remain over a lifetime leading to permanent scarring. Acne scarring can damage our self-esteem and leave the skin around the impacted area feeling tight and uncomfortable. Nivali offers many treatment solutions to reduce the appearance of acne scarring and alleviate skin discomfort caused by scars.

Causes of Acne Scarring

Acne scarring occurs because of inflammation during a breakout. Inflammation leads to scarring as the skin swells and breaks within the wall of the pore. Sometimes, we break skin by popping a pimple. Other times, skin breaks naturally as clogged pores expand. Our bodies respond by rebuilding collagen and tissue in the affected area, creating a scar. While it is incredible how our skin regenerates and repairs, acne scarring can leave us feeling self-conscious and eager to smoothen and brighten our complexion.

About Acne Scar Treatments

Nivali offers several treatments to minimize the appearance of scars and make the skin around scars more comfortable. It is important to note that scars can never be removed completely – they can only be minimized and improved. Using advanced skin technologies and treatments, we can drastically reduce the appearance of scarring and leave you feeling more comfortable. Following our treatments, we often recommend a home care routine to maintain results, protect the skin, and promote skin health and renewal in the scarred area.

We require a consultation before any of our acne scar revision treatments.
