Post-Acne Scars (Ice Pick / Rolling / Boxcar) – Problem & Solution
What is the Problem?
After acne clears, many people are left with permanent marks called post-acne scars. These scars change the texture of the skin, making it look uneven. Unlike red spots or pigmentation, scars affect the deeper layers of the skin, so they don’t fade away easily.
There are three common types:
- Ice Pick Scars – deep and narrow holes, like small punctures.
- Rolling Scars – wavy depressions that make the skin look uneven.
- Boxcar Scars – wider, shallow dents with sharp edges.
These scars can lower confidence because makeup often doesn’t cover the texture, and home remedies usually don’t give real results.
