Acne Scars Treatment Calgary
Our aesthetic clinic offers Acne Scars Treatment in Calgary for those who are looking for a range of effective treatments to improve or eliminate acne scarring.
Types of Acne Scars
Most acne scars are depressed or pitted. Collagen fibers anchor the base of the scar to subcutaneous tissue, pulling surface skin downward. Depressed scars may be referred to as ice pick, boxcar, or rolling, describing their shape, size, and depth. Treatment involves disrupting scar tissue, allowing it to be replaced with layers of healthy skin. Hypertrophic scars or keloids are formation of excess scar tissue, leaving firm, raised regions of skin. Because acne is an inflammatory condition, it often results in abnormal discolouration and texture, as well. Acne scars may appear red, pink, or white, and be rough or shiny.
