A Quick Overview 

First things first as they say. That’s why we’ve put together a quick overview of the different kind of acne scars we see most often. If you have one of the following types, make an appointment to come in to see us.

Rolling Scars 

These are named that way because they have deep craters with edges. These are usually only a few millimeters wide and they look like indents. The edges slope and that gives the skin an uneven look. Squeezing or picking at your acne can result in these types of scars. It’s a little known fact that smoking is also a factor in developing them.

Ice Pick Scars 

These can be caused by a number of different factors including skin products and cosmetics. Other things play a role in developing these V-shaped scars like stress. There are several medical conditions and certain medications that can cause these to develop.

Radio Frequency Micro Needling is one of the Irvine acne scar treatment options you have.  This process targets the deepest layers of your skin without disturbing outer parts.

Boxcar Scars 

These are generally depressed and flat. They are quite common and they result from the acne healing process. Boxcar scars are more prevalent in the jaw and lower cheeks. There are several ways to prevent acne that leads to this kind of scarring.

 Skin cleansing is important since cleaning your pores prevents blockages and pimples. Washing your face daily removes any cosmetics and sweat that can block hair follicles and cause acne.

Variety of Tools 

Ageless MD has a variety of tools that can treat acne scars. We favor TCA crosshatch when treating the ice pick variety. In some situations we use Bellafill which is FDA approved.
