Acne Scar Surgery how can i get rid of my acne scars with surgery?
i am a 24 year old male with ice pick scars, box scars, and rolling scars. pretty much hopeless without surgery but hopefully someone can give me a little advice on what helps make them less visible, evens out the tone, etc. i've done a little research on avon's banishing cream, mederma, and bio-oil but can't decide which would be the best route to go. are these products the best last resort before surgery? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. thanks and can't wait to hear your responses
I had severe acne on my face. But then I use is Clinical Super Serum and the condition soon improved. The best thing about the serum is that it also fades post-acne marks and scars on the face. I'm still using it and the spots on my face are gradually fading away.
The worst thing about acne is the scars and the marks it leaves behind. Some of the scars tend to disappear with time but some are so grave that it can be disfiguring which may make our heart sink.
The post acne marks is the hyper pigmented or red marks and is called as the post inflammatory marks. These marks take at least 6-12 months to completely disappear. When these marks last longer than a year then it turns into a scar. A number of things could be done to reduce the redness and to quicken its pace to disappear. There are also a number of home remedies available. Following are some of them.
1) Rub lemon juice on the scar/marks. This will lighten the color. Apply the juice and leave it on for about 10 minutes. Wash off your face and then apply a sun block lotion.
2) Make a paste of sandalwood powder, black gram powder and rose water. Apply it on the area and I possible leave it overnight. Wash it with cold water the next morning. If you find that it makes you skin too dry then add some milk into it.
If these tips did not work for you, do not lose heart you can still try some other tips. Good Luck and Take Care…

Basic Types of Acne Scars Surgery
For those who have more severe acne scars or who want more dramatic results, it is often advisable to look into acne scars surgery after other methods have not worked sufficiently. Most home treatment methods are focused on slight improvements and the reduced appearance of acne scars, but that may not be enough to satisfy everyone. If you find that you want a more permanent and dramatic improvement in the reduction or even removal of acne scars, you should consider some of the following surgery methods to remove acne scars.
Laser surgery
Laser treatment is a rather popular type of acne scar surgery which uses a variety of lasers to provide a reshaping of acne scars and a permanent reduction in redness surrounding troublesome areas. The process uses lasers of a wide variety of intensity levels, based upon the areas being worked on, the severity of the acne scars, and your skin’s overall condition.
While multiple treatments are sometimes needed, most will find that a single laser treatment gives them the results they desire. This is all relatively free of side effects, with the only post-surgical nuisance being slight skin redness from the lasers themselves, which lasts a few months.
Punch excisions and skin grafting
If you suffer from more severe acne scars that are deeper and more pronounced, punch excisions and skin grafting are better options. Punch excisions are used for deeper scars, like “boxcar scars”, and are used to individually remove each scar. After the removal, the skin is sutured around the area, or if skin grafting is used, skin is inserted after being grafted from a different location.
Then, the skin simply must heal for the process to complete. If you use skin grafts instead of sutures, you may see a certain amount of mismatched tone for a little while, but this disappears with treatment.
Collagen injections
If your acne scars are more superficial in nature, you may be able to get the changes you’re looking for from collagen injections. They can treat smaller scars by filling areas that require it, and collagen is a natural substance that will not give you any nasty side effects. The only drawbacks is that collagen injections only give temporary results that last for months at a time.
There are also other acne scars surgery methods that you can look into, if you want. Really, it is best to talk to an experienced dermatologist to determine the type of surgery that best fits your needs.
