Despite the fact that majority of the treatments for acne that are applied do not work for everybody, yet they have been in practice within people from a long time.

People often have misconceptions about the causes of acne and this is often leads to buying wrong types of products which worsen the condition instead of showing any improvement. The exact causes of acne are not known but it is believed that a pimple is formed when a pore or a follicle swells up with excess oil, dead skin cells, and bacteria. When the pore ruptures and breaks the follicle wall two things can happen. If the rupture is near the skin’s surface it is minor and heals after sometime.

On the other hand, if the rupture takes place deeper into the skin it actually damages the follicle wall. When the infected material flows out of the rupture it comes in contact with the dermis and damages healthy skin tissue. As far as the acne marks are concerned, there are some very good natural treatments of acne available which include tomato and cucumber paste, tea tree oil, egg white, wheat germ, baking soda and lemon. It is advised to avoid scrubbing as it will badly damage the skin.

Some way or the other, it is not too difficult to get rid of just the acne marks as there is hardly any need of a major treatment. Nevertheless, when the treatments applied to eliminate acne do not work, this leads to the formation of stubborn acne scars because they become a permanent feature of the skin. When you are looking for treatment of acne scar then just make sure that it cannot be wiped off the skin by ordinary means.

The acne scars can appear on different skins in different forms. Some of the major types of acne scars include ice pick scars, boxcar scars, rolling scars and hypertrophic or keloid scars. Many times you try your best so as to prevent your skin from scarring but nothing works well for you. In such a situation, you must try to consult a qualified acne scar specialist who will give you advice according to the condition of the skin. Always remember that “little knowledge is a dangerous knowledge”.

Acne scars would have remained as they are had there been no cosmetic treatments like laser, chemical peel and dermabrasion. The cosmetic treatments are just not meant for young people to treat the acne and scarring. Instead, they are useful for people who are very much in their old age. The stubborn lines & wrinkles forming on the face and particularly the forehead can be treated by means of various invasive and non-invasive cosmetic procedures.
