In some cases the result is not a true scar, but simply an excess of pigmentation. This may fade away over a few months or years, but generally isn’t permanent as with other acne scars, which can appear as textured skin.
We offer a range of treatments to combat the whole range of acne scars. It is recommended to book a skin consultation with one of our expert skin specialists to assess the scarring and develop a treatment plan tailored to you.
Types of Acne Scarring
There are four main types of acne scarring and this will determine the type of treatment you need. You may discuss this with your doctor to find out which best corresponds to your particular type of acne and they will then discuss all potential treatments with you.
Hyperthrophic Scarring (Keloid Scars)
These scars are raised from your skin’s surface and have a firm texture. Keloid scars are commonly found on your back or your chest area, although it can also appear on your face and your neck. These scars usually reduce in size over time.

Boxcar Scarring
These scars are usually rounded or oval-shaped holes in your skin with steep vertical edges. Boxcar scarring looks like the scars left after you have chickenpox and they are usually found on your cheek area.

Rolling Scarring
These have rounded, sloping edges, hence the name. You may see rolling scarrings often have a rough texture and a wavy or rippling appearance and they are the result of damage under your skin.

Ice Pick Scarring
These common type of scars is usually deep and very narrow. Your skin’s surface looks as though it has been pierced by an ice pick, hence the name. Some pick scars are large in size and often look similar to an open pore.
