Why do acne scars form?
Acne scars are not simply 'because you squeezed them.' Various factors, such as the type and condition of acne before scarring, and the extraction method, all play a complex role.
- Acne Type: Varies from comedonal acne with only sebum to large nodular/cystic acne.
- Improper Extraction: Unprofessional extraction can cause skin damage and secondary infection.
"Repeated irritation and secondary infection make scars deeper and wider."
Ultimately, acne scars occur when the skin is damaged and fails to heal properly. Therefore, when acne appears, it is important to consult a specialist and receive proper treatment.
