Understanding it

What causes acne scars?

Deep, inflamed acne can damage the collagen beneath the skin, leaving dips once it heals.

Scars respond to treatments that rebuild collagen, usually several combined over months.

Common causes

  • Cystic or nodular acne
  • Picking or squeezing spots
  • Delayed acne treatment
  • Genetic tendency
