Did you know, Not All Scars Tell A Great Story

Acne is not only about the spots and scars which mar your body. It is such a problematic ailment because it is not only the redness and irritation that causes you problems. Acne can lead to psychological and emotional stress which is much more dangerous than the physical problems. When thinking of treatments you need to think about both of these factors.

So just how widespread is acne?

If you look at the statistics, acne is one of the most common of complaints for all western countries. For Americans, forty to fifty million people face this problem daily. Most of them are teenagers or adolescents from the age of eleven up to young adults up to 30. Most commonly, they have poor skin across the face, neck, back and chest.

Choosing the correct type of treatment which matches your symptoms - the severity of the acne as well as where it is located - is important. Not all treatments would be appropriate for all people. To choose the correct type of treatment you need to have information to hand to assist you in your decision.

If your acne and physical appearance are bothering you then you have a range of things that you could use to address the problems, ranging from fairly mild to very invasive.

You may want to try one or more of the following;
1. Autologous fat transfer
2. Collagen injection
3. Microdermabrasion
 4. Dermabrasion
5. Skin grafting
6. Laser Treatment
7. Treatment of keloids
8. Skin Surgery

All of the above treatments are available to you providing you have the agreement of a professional dermatologist. You may expect that only those with very significant scaring or facial disfigurement would be able to have the above treatments, but this is not the case.

The right way to treat acne scars must be determined well so that you are able to have the results you want and to make sure that you gat value for money.
