Many people struggle with acne. However, when it clears, we can be left with new skin issues, most often scarring. Healthy, smooth skin is something we all deserve, and when acne leaves behind deep scars, it can feel impossible to achieve. Some of us even struggle with self-confidence due to deep acne scarring. 

At Seattle Plastic Surgery, Dr. Philip Young is one of the top acne scar specialists. Dr. Young uses advanced and precise techniques to create incredible results for patients. Dr. Young created the Acne Scar Vitalizer treatment to eliminate deep acne scarring and create smooth, beautiful skin. The Acne Scar Vitalizer is one of the top acne scarring treatments in Seattle. 

How Do Acne Scars Occur?

Acne scars can occur when blemishes form deep underneath the skin. Typically, severe acne scars result from frequent cystic acne. Acne scars create uneven skin texture, leaving deep depressions around the cheeks and face. Acne scar patterns are different and include the following: 

  • Rolling Scars:  the rolling scar formation resembles extended “rolling” depressions. These scars are often found in the cheeks and midface region. 
  • Ice Pick Scars: Ice pick scars are more minor dimples in the skin, resembling the marks of an ice pick. Ice pick scars can be found all over the facial region and cluster in the most affected areas. 
  • Boxcar Scars: Boxcar scars have a well, box-like formation with deep grooves inside the box. They often occur around the midface region but can be anywhere deep cystic acne occurs.

How Does The Acne Scar Vitalizer Treatment Work?

The Acne Scar Vitalizer is a comprehensive, multiple-step process for treating severe acne scars. It works for every type of acne scar and can resurface the skin’s texture. Dr. Young carefully curated this treatment to reach the deeper levels of the skin for stunning results. See, common scar treatments only reach the surface layer of the skin and never actually address the issue’s cause of the scar. 

With Dr. Young’s acne scarring treatment in Seattle, you can finally be rid of your acne scars and experience smooth, beautiful skin.
