Additionally, by working with an expert dermatologist like Dr. Green, you’ll receive tailored guidance that can quickly and safely reduce the appearance of skin discoloration and dark spots without risking additional irritation or damage to the skin and with optimal results.
It is important that prior to the treatment of acne scars, all active acne breakouts are resolved effectively. This will help prevent the development of new acne scars and provide the most optimal cosmetic results overall. This is especially important for patients with darker skin tones, who may be more prone to conditions such as post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation and keloid scarring. Some cosmetic procedures are designed to minimize the appearance of acne scars by causing controlled trauma to the skin, stimulating the natural wound-healing process of the skin, and causing an increased amount of collagen production. These procedures can sometimes result in the formation of keloid scars in patients who have an increased propensity for keloids. If you have a history of keloid scars, you must discuss this with your dermatologist before undergoing any cosmetic procedures for the treatment of acne scars. If acne scars are present on the skin in the form of keloid scars, Dr. Green is able to shrink the scar tissue by injecting them with a small amount of steroids.
