Acne scars are usually caused by inflammation of the skin caused by engorged skin pores filled with excess oil, dead skin cells and bacteria. The pore swells, causing a break in the follicle wall. Depending on the depth of break, the characteristics of acne scars vary. Shallow lesions are usually minor and heal quickly. But if there is a deep break in the wall of the pore, infected material spills out into the surrounding tissue, creating deeper excavated lesions. The skin attempts to repair these lesions by forming new collagen fibers. These repairs usually aren’t as smooth and flawless as the original skin. The common types of scarring can be seen in this image.
Most people develop a combination of different patterns of scarring.

Fractional resurfacing techniques have revolutionised the way we treat acne scars now. This is a non-invasive treatment that uses a device to deliver a laser beam divided into thousands of microscopic treatment zones that target a fraction of the skin at a time. This is analogous to a photographic image being enhanced or altered pixel by pixel.
