What is an acne scar?

An acne scar is evidence of permanent damage to the skin tissue caused by inflammation associated with acne blemishes. An acne scar occurs when an inflamed acne lesion becomes engorged with excess oil, sebum, dead skin cells, and bacteria. As the lesion swells, the inflammation causes trauma to the underlying skin tissue. This triggers the skin’s natural wound-healing response, which stimulates the production of collagen, a skin protein that contributes to a firm, smooth skin texture. When too little collagen is produced, a depressed scar develops. When excess collagen is made, a raised scar forms. The most common type of acne scar is a depressed scar, also known as an atrophic scar. While acne scars are permanent, their appearance can be significantly improved through various non-invasive treatments at Dr. Green’s private dermatology office in NYC.
