The best acne scar removal product should include a biological skin regeneration protein substance that also contains topical antibiotical peptides that fights acne infection.

Once acne inflammation happens, caused by bacteria infection in clogged pores, a person may develop several different lesion types. Smaller red bumps are known as papules. Larger red bumps are known as nodules. Sometimes, lesions will acquire a yellowish white color. The lesion is then called a pustule, because its color is due to pus accumulated inside the lesion.

Acne scars are left behind, often permanently, after the lesion is healed. Acne scarring occurs when acne is irritated, often by direct touching of the aggravated area. In order to decrease the incidence of acne scarring, avoid the use of oily cosmetics on the damaged area. The affected area should be consistently cleansed, and should not be squeezed. Squeezing and picking the area before it is ready to be drained can usually cause the acne to be embedded deeper, thereby causing more intense scarring. In addition to the risk of scarring, doctors often ask patients not to squeeze facial acne for the rare risk that the infectious collection can go into parts of the brain, causing severe consequences such as seizure, stroke, and even death.

Not all acne scars are alike, although they are more likely to develop from the same sort of acne called nodulocystic or cystic acne.

Ice pick scars are thin, well-defined scars that make the skin appear it has been punctured with an ice-pick. They are commonly narrower than two millimeters and extend into the lower dermis or subcutaneous layer. Icepick scars are commonly too deep to cure with skin resurfacing procedures such as dermabrasion or laser resurfacing.

Punch Excision Treatment for Ice-pick Acne Scars

This approach of surgically correcting acne scars is used on severe scars such as ice pick and deep scars. This method uses a punch biopsy instrument, basically a round, sharp "cookie-cutter" instrument that comes in diameters ranging from 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm. The size of the tool is matched to the size of the scar to include the walls of the scar. Using local anesthesia the scar is eliminated with the punch instrument and the skin borders are sutured together. The newly produced scar eventually fades and may not be noticeable. If it is noticeable, it is more amenable now to resurfacing methods or the use of skin regenerating accelerators.

Some solutions contain an exclusive skin regenerating substance and biological antibiotic proven to be effective for the treatment of acne scars. They not only work for the removal of keloid scars and to reduce pitted or ice pick scars, but also prevent scarring and act as a biological solution for adult and teen acne. They also act in conjunction with accutane or oral antimicrobials for severe nodular cystic acne.
