Hyperpigmentation & Acne Scars
Not only is it frustrating to have active acne in the form of spots, redness and pustules, these lesions can leave their mark in the form of scars and hyperpigmentation.
Skin damage caused by acne, scars skin tissue. These scars never completely disappear, even if treated well, but the sooner it is treated, the better. Untreated acne often leads to hyperpigmentation and can cause scarring.
Interestingly enough, persistent chronic acne can be treated and eliminated without harsh prescriptions (retinoids, isotretinoins, antibiotics), lasers, abrasive chemical peels, microdermabrasions, or an unending search for the next miracle-in-a-bottle.
There is a difference between scarring and hyperpigmentation…
