Will zit scars go away?

August 25, 2016 by Admin2 Leave a Comment

Scarring triggered by zits is always problematic. Minor scarring occurring after the zits on your facial skin heal may vanish within weeks or months, depending on your skin type. However, some other types of scars resulted from zits may not vanish that easily. Sometimes, specific treatments are required to make the scars go away or at least, make it less noticeable.

Contributing factors in get rid of zit scars

Since scars from zits may be various, there are some factors that contribute to how likely the scars are going to fade out.  These contributing factors include:

Your zit scars types

Knowing the type of your acne scars matters, as it will help you determine the most suitable treatment that will be able to make it vanish faster. Since zits are commonly triggered by clogged sebum embedded on the skin tissues, when burst, it is likely to cause a quite deep scar, especially when you carelessly pop it. The most common scars include icepick scars, boxcar scars, rolling scars, and keloid.

Your skin type

People with darker complexion might experience more tanned scars than those with fairer complexion. When excessively exposed to ultraviolet ray, these scars also tend to get darker and more permanent. People with oily skin tend to experience more zits than those with drier one. Hence, they might find the scars are more difficult to go away.

How likely are zit scars to go away?

Zits might be with the heads—called pustules, or without the heads—called papules. As a moderate kind of acne, breakout might result in semi-permanent scars. These scars may go away, yet require a lot of time before they are fully healed. They might also stay permanently, unless minimized through surgical procedures.

Zit scars that are not raised scars or keloids can go away within months, using proper treatments and remedies. These scars are called atrophic scars, and may respond quite well to collagen-based topical medications. To help atrophic scars to fade, apply topical remedies containing AHA, BHA, or vitamin A onto the scars. This will help the skin to repair the damaged skin cells, promoting new skin cells, which make the damaged areas less noticeable.

Zit scars that are pitted, such as those ones with icepick, rolled, or boxcar scars might not be able to go away completely. In most cases, frequent skin peeling using a natural remedy of honey, lemon juice, and sugar is able to improve the skin appearance affected by these pitted zit scars. Skin fillers may also be beneficial for treating pitted acne scars, although might require a quite long time. Despite the performed treatments, pitted zit scars can hardly be eliminated completely. In most people, these scars will still be visible. Heavy make-up, thus, is often chosen to minimize the way these scars look, although it may not be able to be completely concealed.

Keloid or raised zit scars are the most difficult type of zit scars to go away, since it is triggered by plied skin tissues, which requires professional treatments. Keloids are more common in people with darker complexion and those having a family history of keloids. Laser therapy is commonly used for treating keloids, although it is impossible to eliminate this type of zit scars completely.
