To blend these complex source brands due to acne, aesthetics provides more or lesseffective answers. Brands red or brown scars bump or hollow... The point with a dermatologist.
We cannot talk of acne scars without talking about the psychological scars, said DrNaima Midoun. I see patients traumatized by their acne, whose adolescence was marred by the buttons. Subsequently, the scars are still a real complex. »
When should I consult for acne scars?
The ideal is to visit the dermatologist who prescribed and followed the treatment ofacne when it was inflammatory, because he knows his patient, and it will explain how it is possible to treat scars when acne is "cured". Indeed, to intervene too early could cause an inflammatory reaction... and an outbreak of acne.
Different solutions depending on the type of scars
It's red marks
Faced with red marks, often because of light skin, one speaks of tasks erhythemateuses.
These marks can last a long time, several months, but in the vast majority of cases they disappear on their own. "I acknowledge that he must be patient, but in the meantime, these marks disappear totally," explains Dr. Midoun. And during the transitional period, makeup can effectively conceal these brands to live better every day.
The dermatologist may advocate, in addition to a hyratante cream, a cosmetic acid fruit alpha or beta (salicylic acid) to accelerate the disappearance of the red marks. Itis not real scars where they disappear spontaneously.
Among the products that correct paths: Avene Triacneal Expert care persistent imperfections, €15,30 30 ml; Bioderma Sébium Serum concentrate purifying gentle peeling, €14.60 40 ml (in pharmacies).
It's spots
One speaks then of pigmented acne. Matt hides in dark are the most concerned, and is a significant demand.
Of the cosmetic products, there are a variety of depigmenting type Kojic acid, resorcinol, vitamin C... "to modest efficiency", warns Dr. Midoun.
More effective bleaching preparations are prescribed by dermatologist and prepared by the pharmacist.
"The classic preparation is called the trio of Kligman, at base, associated with vitamin A acid (Retinoic acid) and corticosteroids. I often prefer to prescribe a duo with hydroquinone and vitamin A acid, starting with low-dose assets then gradually increasing. I recommend apply this preparation in the evening, but not with sleep to prevent any migration of the product. Normally, results are visible in three months,"explains Dr. Midoun.
It is necessary, in all cases, avoid the depigmentaires lasers that are only increasing this type of pigmentation. And always recommend anti-UVA and UVB sun protectionat each exhibition.
In which case do a peeling?
The peeling did not proof of its effectiveness on brown spots.
However, it can be effective when the person subject to acne marks smokes. Skin takes then a shade grey, and black dots are embedded: a superficial peeling brings ageneral brightness and effect significant good-looking.
Superficial peeling plays on the homogeneity of the complexion and large pores.
A medium trichloroacetic acid peeling, dosed at 30% or 50%, may present a certainefficiency on superficial atrophic scars, but not on the deepest scars like ice picks.
Count €80 for a superficial peeling, and from €120 for a medium peeling. These actsare not reimbursed by social security.

For acne scars, what hope?
In addition to stains, acne leaves small marks on the skin that can be trying to do away with, there still, random results.
The slightly puffy scars called Keloids, are especially uncomfortable because they cause itching. The only possible treatment is an injection of cortisone in the keloid to renew for several months, with a random result. The purpose of this injection is to collapse the keloid.
The scars intaglio (craters, ice scars to cookie-cutter pick) can be treated with resurfacants, both ablative lasers and ablatives. In general, you need both. Ablative laser, in the first place, on atrophic scars, but the result will remain often part-time, and the practitioner may homogeneous
The scars intaglio (craters, ice scars to cookie-cutter pick) can be treated with resurfacants, both ablative lasers and ablatives. In general, you need both. Ablative laser, in the first place, on atrophic scars, but the result will remain often partial, and the practitioner may homogenize all with a non-ablative laser. For the laser, count from €400 according to the treated area. Surgery may be considered in the most importantcases.
Small white balls to soft consistency (perifollicular elastolyses), often visible on the face and trunk of people with a dark phototype. "They do not disappear and there isno proposed treatment, because it is the elastic tissue of the skin that has broken", said Dr. Midoun.
In conclusion, Dr. Midoun insists on the importance of treating acne lesions when they appear, because once the scar has been installed, it can be dimmed but not removed: "never found her skin from before the scar. Acne is a disease that must be treated without delay.
Camouflage its cicactrices, it is possible!
Dermatologists emphasize complexes that produce acne and scars. Makeup has thisadvantage to hide a simple, immediate and inexpensive brands. "Avoid using a toopigmented Foundation which will mark the faults more that blur them", says first Joëlle Nonni, makeup artist Council for brand Avene.
For Red scars, a concealer brush is sufficient, by laying it on the area to be corrected. The right thing: gently tap and blur the contours to the swab.
For brown spots, use a coral color that will blur the task without the gray.
If you additionally use a Foundation, lay it before the spell. Always choose products"non-comedogenic".
