Acne scarring can occur in individuals with even minor acne or if the acne has been prolonged or severe. Generally an acne scar will emerge if the acne has not been treated early and adequately.

Acne scars can range from red, sensitive skin to depressed indented scars that are thickened. Thickened types of red or brown scars are most commonly found on the jawline, back or chest. Indented scars, commonly referred to as ice pick scars, occur on the cheeks, chin and temples. Often with indented scars, the skin's structure appears dissolved and scars are quite deep.

Redness commonly resulting from acne poses a huge concern for many individuals, mainly due to their appearance and pain. Skin Nurture Clinic provides a number of treatments and technologies for acne scarring.
