Getting Past Your Acne Scars Can Be Hard: How To Treat Them With Science...

Just about everyone has experienced acne in their lifetime and some continue to have breakouts into adulthood. For many, acne clears up but the scars linger on for years. They made fade but they just never seem to go away completely. There is some hope. With the right topical products with active ingredients, you can help fade acne scars over time.

But you have to remember that your skin is no longer that of a baby, so your aim should not be to acquire the smooth surface of the photo-shopped celebrity, but a better looking and healthier adult skin. Have a look at your acne scars and spots and decide whether you want to do something about them. Don’t look at them with a magnifying mirror, that is not the way others see you and should not be the way you look at yourself.

What Causes Acne Scars

In the creation of acne scars, there is inflammation, which damages the tissue while fighting bacterial infection. After the acne lesion heals, it can leave a red or brown hyperpigmented mark on the skin. The redness, or hyperpigmentation, is seen as the skin goes through its healing and remodeling process, which takes approximately a year.

If no more acne lesions develop in that area, the skin may heal normally. After inflammation is over, bacteria, red blood cells, and damaged tissue are removed by macrophages. Blood vessels are repaired, and new cells form in the damaged site similar to the cells that were damaged and removed.

How Long Do Acne Scars Last

Acne marks and dark spots from acne scars may fade on their own in 6-12 months, but they could stick around for a lot longer. With a good skin care routine focused on collagen production and skin rejuvenation, you may be able to speed up the fading process. But be patient and consistent. Don't give up.

How To Treat Acne Scars

A scar may look to our eyes like a finished event, but it isn’t: the skin is live tissue. We can still intervene by inducing the synthesis of new collagen and destruction of the old proteins.

• Hydrolyzed Collagen will help promote and support the synthesis of collagen. Collagen is a natural part of our skin and helps keep our skin firm and supple and helps to renew skin cells.
• Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) is a growth factor that plays an important role in the regulation of cell growth, cell proliferation and differentiation. This is one of the specialty proteins made by Skin Actives Scientific specifically for use in cosmetics and skin care products.

Our Scar Vanishing Gel contains both hydrolyzed collagen and EGF to may help reprogram your acne scars and improve their structure and appearance. Skin Actives' Scar Gel also contains our exclusive Sea Kelp Bioferment which includes a full array of nutrients plus valuable polysaccharides that will moisturize your skin and protect it from pollution and bacteria.
