Acne Scars vs Acne Marks

❗PIH and PIE are also known as acne marks. Many of us struggle with these after a successful acne treatment or after a pimple has healed. But did you know the difference between hypertrophic and atrophic acne scars❓ ↪️”Atrophic acne scars (ice pick, boxcar- and rolling scar) are caused by an altered wound healing response that leads to reduced collagen production and skin indentations.“ ↪️”Hypertrophic acne scars are caused by an altered wound healing response where too much collagen is produced leading to excess scar tissue and raised scars.“ Sσυrςε: @selfcaresocietycom ση ιηςταgrαm 📷
