These are personal decisions only you can make.
The best acne scar treatment for you depends also on the severity of your acne scars. Is scarring substantially disfiguring?
Before committing to treatment of acne scars, you should have a frank discussion with your dermatologist regarding those questions, and any others you feel are important.
The aspiration when going through acne scars treatment is to give the skin a more acceptable physical appearance. Total restoration of the skin, to the way it looked before you had acne, is often not possible, but scar treatments do usually improve the appearance of your skin.
The best acne scar treatments currently available include:
Augmentation by Collagen Injections. Collagen, a normal substance of the body, is injected under the skin to "stretch" and "fill out" certain types of superficial and deep soft scars.
Collagen treatment usually does not work as
well for ice-pick scars and keloids.
Cosmetic benefit from collagen injection usually lasts 3 to 6 months. Additional
collagen injections to maintain the cosmetic benefit are done at additional
cost.
Autologous fat transfer. Fat is taken from another site on
your own body and prepared for injection into your skin. The fat is injected
beneath the surface of the skin to elevate depressed scars.
This method of autologous (from your own body) fat transfer is usually used to correct deep contour defects caused by scarring from nodulocystic acne.
Because the fat is
reabsorbed into the skin over a period of 6 to 18 months, the procedure usually
must be repeated. Longer lasting results may be achieved with multiple
fat-transfer procedures.
Dermabrasion. This is thought to be the most effective treatment for acne scars. Under local anesthesia, a high-speed brush or fraise is used to remove surface skin and alter the contour of scars.
Superficial scars may be removed altogether, and deeper scars may be reduced in depth.
Dermabrasion does not work for all kinds of scars; for example, it may make ice-pick scars more noticeable if the scars are wider under the skin than at the surface. In darker-skinned people, dermabrasion may cause changes in pigmentation that require additional treatment.
Microdermabrasion. This is a surface form of dermabrasion. Rather than a high-speed brush, microdermabrasion uses aluminum oxide crystals passing through a vacuum tube to remove surface skin.
Only the very surface cells of the skin are removed, so no additional wound is created. Multiple procedures are often required but scars may not be cost effectively or significantly improved.
Home Microdermabrasion. This is done by rubbing a cream with the same mycro-crystals professionals use. When used over and over again it polishes away the scarring. Now, this requieres your active attitude to work.
Physical exfoliation of 10 or so microns, specially of rough tissues and scars helps active ingredients to penetrate more easily the outer layer of the skin into the epidermis and the basal layer, while they also polish the surface and make it softer and look and feel more even.
If scars are indented, pitted or so called ice-pick scars the action of the enzymes in our biological organic serum combined with physical exfoliation by the abrading micro-crystals embeded in a lipid cream base is best. Since the product contains skin regeneration accelerators it can be the best and most cost effective method for most acne scars.

Laser Treatment. Lasers of various wavelength and intensity may be used to recontour scar tissue and reduce the redness of skin around healed acne lesions. The type of laser used is determined by the results that the laser treatment aims to accomplish. Tissue may actually be removed with powerful laser such as the carbon dioxide laser. In some cases, a single treatment is all that will be necessary to achieve permanent results. Because the skin absorbs powerful bursts of energy from the laser, there may be post-treatment redness for several months.
Skin grafting may be necessary under certain conditions—for example, sometimes dermabrasion unroofs massive and extensive tunnels (also called sinus tracts) caused by inflammatory reaction to sebum and bacteria in sebaceous follicles. Skin grafting may be needed to close the defect of the unroofed sinus tracts.
Punch excision techniques : One punch technique is “punch elevation” which is used mainly on deeper boxcar scars. The concept is to remove the scar using the same excision technique where a biopsy tool removes the scar, but rather than suture or graft the wound, the scar tissue is then elevated and reattached. This diminishes the depth of the scar and minimizes the likelihood of discoloration. Punch replacement technique: instead of suturing the skin surrounding the scar with a tool, the area is filled with a skin graft, usually taken from behind the ear. This method is thought to be the most successful for treating deep acne scars.
Treatment of keloids. Surgical removal is seldom if ever
used to treat keloids. A person whose skin has a tendency to form keloids from
acne lesions may also form keloids in response to skin surgery. Sometimes keloids
are treated by injecting steroid drugs into the skin around the keloid. Topical
retinoic acid may be applied directly on the keloid. In some cases the best
treatment for keloids in a highly susceptible person is no treatment at
all. Click here for a very effective scar removal cream for keloids
In summary, acne scars are caused by the body’s inflammatory
response to acne lesions. The best way to prevent scars is to treat acne early,
and as long as necessary. If scars form, a number of effective treatments are
available.


BIOSKINEXFOL, our home microdermabrasion cream for acne scars uses tiny micro-crystals that, rubbed onto your skin regularly for some time, will polish away the upermost microns of damaged skin. It also includes the organic serum with enzymes that take away scar tissues while it speeds skin regeneration to increase the natural healing processes and thus achieve even better final results.
