How to Prevent Acne SCARS | Dr Sam Bunting

Did you know that a spot has a 6% risk of turning into a scar?

Acne scarring is miserable. It can take lots of treatment and expense to improve, and resolution isn’t always possible. And some individuals have genetics that mean they scar worse than other people. It’s just one of those things.

So the best thing is to focus on prevention. I want to teach you 4 easy things you can action today that’ll reduce your risk of your blemishes leaving a scar on your skin.

Firstly when I talk about scarring I don’t mean flat dark marks, I mean indentations. That means collagen loss in the dermis has occurred and also potentially some tethering, where the base of the scar is stuck to the surrounding tissues.

As always thank you so much for watching and for all your support!
