What are acne scars?
Acne scars are indentations or textural changes that occur on the skin due to acne vulgaris. They can occur on the face, shoulders, chest, upper back, and anywhere else acne appears on the body. Acne scars result from inflammation within the dermis brought on by acne.
Difference between an acne mark and an acne scar
If the surface of your skin remains smooth in the dark or red areas where your acne was, you simply have an acne mark. Acne marks are not scars but are temporary discoloration of the skin. It usually takes 3-6 months for acne marks to disappear. However, if you have an acne scar, you are dealing with permanent skin damage that needs treatment for it to disappear.
Having an acne breakout can cause your self-esteem to drop but having acne scarring afterwards can be both emotionally and physically devastating.
Types of Acne Scars
Acne scars occurs due to the formation of cystic acne and inflamed pustular acne. This happens when you pick the pimples, leaving acne marks on your skin. There are several types of acne scars that can occur after an acne breakout.
Ice pick scars
Ice pick scars can be easily distinguished compared to other acne scars, as they are pitted with round or oval holes. They are narrow in size but have a deep V shape indentation in the skin. Ice pick scars are more difficult to treat as it underlies deeper than the skin surface.
Rolling scars
This type of acne scar has an irregular or wavy appearance, in which it usually has rounded edges.
Boxcar scars
Boxcar acne scars are like rolling scars; however, they are U-shaped with sharp edges and wider. This type of scar can be shallow or deep, depending on the scarring.
Hypertrophic scars
Hypertrophic scars caused due to excessive collagen production when the skin is healing. They usually occur in the back and chest area. The main features of hypertrophic scars is that they protrude from the surface of the skin.
HOW TO GET RID OF ACNE SCARS USING POTENZA RF MICRONEEDLING
The Potenza RF Microneedling with Tiger Tip technology is a revolutionary device to effectively tighten and tone skin, reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve overall skin texture, shrink large pores, and diminish acne scars on both the face and other parts of the body, resulting in glowing, smoother, younger looking skin.
Radiofrequency microneedling or RF microneedling, is an acne scar treatment that delivers energy to the skin to repair it from within. This treatment is suitable to treat all four types of acne scars.
"At our Toronto acne treatment clinic, the Potenza RF Microneedling device effectively kills acne causing bacteria and build collagen and elastin to diminish the look of acne scars."
RF Microneedling helps active acne and acne scars by promoting the growth of new skin cells through the increased production of collagen and elastin. It reduces new acne from forming by reducing sebum production, which causes oily skin. The reduction of sebum causes the reduction of whiteheads, blackheads, and cystic acne.

Laser resurfacing is an excellent acne scar treatment for any type of acne scars. It is like similar to a dermabrasion or chemical peel treatment, as it exfoliates the top layer of the skin and stimulates collagen production. However, it offers better benefits such as a faster healing time which is only one week post treatment.
Another benefit is you can notice an immediate effect with just one treatment. "The ideal laser we use at Laser Skin Clinic for acne scars is the Cynosure PicoSure laser. We use the PicoSure laser for fine lines and wrinkles, acne scars and to minimize the pores."
