How to Prevent and Remove Scars From Pimples Shirley Dillaman
Pimples are not only painful but are embarrassing as well. The scars and marks left behind from the pimples are an unpleasant reminder of this. However, it is important to remember these scars can be prevented and even removed. Through several remedies, products, and skin-care tips, all those who suffer from pimples will be able to deal with marks and scars, from prevention to treatment.
Preventing Pimple Scars Although no one can stop pimples from occurring, there are steps that can be taken to avoid potential scarring. Treat blemishes once they appear: The most efficient method of dealing with scarring is by not allowing pimples to develop into a more severe form. Start treatment right away using over-thecounter products and proceed to schedule a visit to the doctor if the acne persists. Refrain from inflaming the area: Pimples that have been irritated are more probable to cause scarring. Eliminating the use of beauty products with harsh ingredients on skin and gently cleansing the face will reduce the chance of inflammation. Don’t pop or squeeze the pimples: Picking at any blemish can spread infection and even cause the pimple to increase in severity. Squeezing, popping, or picking at pimples can not only damage tissue but cause a long-lasting scar.
Removing Pimple Scars From natural remedies to medical assistance, there are a number of options available to those who want to get rid of their scars from pesky pimples. Natural Remedies for Scar Removal: Home remedies are a great alternative to over-the-counter products that often have harsh chemicals in them. They are made from natural products and highly effective in reducing the appearance of scars. Lemon juice, aloe vera, honey, and baking soda are a few products know to lighten the look of scars.
Medical Assistance for Pimple Scars : If natural remedies and drugstore products aren’t doing the job, seeking a medical opinion is another option. A doctor can prescribe stronger medicines or perform a number of treatments to get rid of the blemishes. Laser resurfacing treatment: This is a procedure that can be done right in the office of a dermatologist. By removing the top layers of skin from the scar, doctors will be able to remove the appearance of the blemish and make the skin around it smoother. Skin Fillers: Scars often leave indentations and imprints on the skin. A filler will be able to even the skin around the scar and create immediate results. However, this a process that must be repeated as it is not permanent. Surgery: A more costly option to remove scars from pimples is to have them surgically removed. Scars will be cut out one by one and further skin-care treatments may be necessary post-surgery.
