Pimples that develop during puberty are common enough, but for a certain percentage of people, those pimples can develop into acne where the lesions are bigger, pustules may form, and it leaves behind a deep scar after healing. Those affected by acne often search for acne scar removal treatment<\/a> options and the most common results are usually divided into over-the-counter\/home treatment remedies, or treatment options that require a licensed dermatologist like laser scar removals.<\/p>\n

Over-the-counter\/home treatment remedies for acne scars often include things like topical applications such as benzoyl peroxide creams, salicylic acid serums, or mild peeling lotions with ingredients like alpha-hydroxy acids. Most of these remedies focus on discouraging growth of the acne-causing bacteria on skin or to encourage skin cell turnover. However, not all home remedy treatments may be suitable for your skin as acne can be persistent due to how it is formed and how scarring occurs, which will be discussed below.<\/p>\n

What is an \u2018Acne Scar\u2019?<\/h2>\n

In short, acne scars<\/a> are the result of irregular collagen fibres deposited in the skin after a lesion. Across the surface of our skin, there are many hair follicles. The hair follicles often extend downwards deep into the skin layer. Inside those hair follicles, or pores as they are sometimes known as, there are small sebaceous glands that produce an oily and waxy substance called \u2018sebum\u2019. Although a mixture of sebum, sweat, and skin cells can help to protect our skin from the environment, too much sebum production due to hormonal changes or environmental changes (such as humid weather and pollution) can clog the pore.<\/p>\n

As the pores become blocked with the oil and dead skin cells, bacteria begin to grow underneath and create painful pus-filled acne lesions. These lesions can cause damage to the follicle wall and the body responds to the inflammation by continuing the wound healing process to replace damaged skin tissue with new collagen fibres. The problem with this, and basically how acne scars form, is when the collagen deposited is too little (resulting in depressed or atrophic scars), or too much (resulting in raised or hypertrophic scars).<\/p>\n

Acne Scar Removal Treatment Available in Singapore<\/h2>\n

Acne treatments should always be personalised<\/a> to the individual person as acne scars can be complicated to treat. In answering the question, \u201cWhat is THE best acne scar treatment in Singapore?\u201d the answer is that there is simply no ONE treatment that is the best for resolving scarring. Acne scar removal treatments are varied and depend on whether scarring is atrophic (depressed scars) or hypertrophic (raised scars).<\/p>\n

Atrophic scarring, which looks like indentations or pitting in the skin, may be treated with a combination of treatments for optimal results.\u00a0\u00a0Fractional CO2 Laser<\/a> is best suited for rolling or shallow boxcar scars, while Fractional Er:YAG<\/a> is best for all types of rolling scars, and shallow or deep boxcar scars. The application of laser to the skin helps to remodel the collagen web in the scar. Fractional Erbium Laser<\/a> is a skin-correcting laser treatment that treats acne scars and smoothes skin with minimal downtime. Subcision<\/a> is a minor procedure requiring needles to break up collagen chains in the scar to help level the skin, and is often preferred in rolling scars. TCA Cross<\/a> is recommended in icepick scarring, requiring no needles as it utilises a high concentration of acid to regenerate collagen fibres in the scar tissue.<\/p>\n

Hypertrophic scarring, which looks like raised bumps on the skin, can be treated with emollients which help to create optimal moisture environments in the skin for healing. In scarring that is beyond the boundaries of the original lesion, called keloid scars, steroid injections may be recommended.<\/p>\n

How Much Does Acne Scar Removal Treatment in Singapore Cost?<\/h2>\n

Acne scar removal treatments in Singapore<\/a> range from $188 to $800, and also depends on the number of treatment sessions you will require based on the type and severity of your scarring. In this table below, we\u2019ll break down in more detail what types of treatment are available in SL Aesthetic Clinic, whether it is more effective for certain types of scarring, and how much each treatment may cost.<\/p>\n

It is important to remember that every person\u2019s acne condition is highly dependent on your own personal history, lifestyle, and even genetic factors. More severe forms of scarring may require more than one treatment option (combining a mix of treatments), and even those which are not as severe may need more than just a single session.<\/p>\n
