What Causes Skin Scarring?

Scars form when the skin repairs itself after injury, acne, or inflammation. During the healing process, collagen can rebuild unevenly, leaving behind pitted, raised, or discoloured marks. Acne scars in particular are common, with changes to texture and tone that can linger long after breakouts have cleared.

The good news? With targeted treatments that remodel collagen, resurface the skin, and reduce discolouration, scarring can be softened and smoothed, helping your skin look clearer and feel more even.

Types of Scars

Atrophic/Pitted Scars

The most common, particularly on the face from acne. They sit below the surrounding skin and are formed when not enough collagen is made when the wound is healing.

Hypotrophic Scars

Opposite to atrophic scars, hypotrophic scars sit as raised lumps of scar tissue where the acne once was. They are caused by too much collagen during healing and are most commonly found on the chest and back.

Discolouration

Red, brown, or dark marks after breakouts.

FAQ's

What causes skin scarring?

Scars form when the skin heals after injury, acne, or inflammation. As collagen rebuilds, it can create raised, pitted, or discoloured areas that change the skin’s texture and appearance.

Can acne scars fade on their own?

Some shallow scars and marks may soften or lighten over time, but deeper scars usually remain. Clinic treatments are the most effective way to remodel collagen and smooth uneven texture.

What treatments help reduce scarring at Caci?

Caci offers advanced options such as Microneedling, Fractional laser, Rhoto Rejuvenation, and peels. These treatments work by stimulating new collagen, resurfacing the skin, and reducing visible marks or indentations.

How long does it take to see results from scar treatments?

This depends on the type and depth of scars. Many clients notice improvements after just a few sessions, with continued results developing over several months as collagen rebuilds.

Will scarring come back after treatment?

Once a scar has been improved, it doesn’t return. However, new scars can form if acne or breakouts aren’t managed. That’s why combining scar treatments with an acne management plan is often the best approach.

Is scarring treatment painful?

Most scar treatments are well tolerated. Microneedling may feel like light scratching, while laser treatments use controlled heat. Your therapist will ensure you’re comfortable and guide you through the process.
