Acne Scars are made by serious infected pimples that causes a small tumour - often very painful, these pus-filled cysts begin to swell appearing under the skin. The more severe the acne, the more likely it is to leave permanent scars.

Cystic acne, other forms of pimples, as well as manually popping and picking at zits can lead a person to experience lasting and very visible acne scarring. It is best to seek treatment as soon as acne starts to try and prevent acne scars. If you have serious red pimples with small tumour, see the physician or skin specialist quickly.

You will most likely be prescribed a cream, gel or combination of both after your level of acne is evaluated by the doctor. Tween and teen females with acne are sometimes prescribed birth control or antibiotic pills in addition to topical treatments. There are certain types of birth control pills which contain hormones that aid in the prevention of acne outbreaks, or other medicinal treatment such as isotretinoin if the pimple is serious.

In the past, acne scars have been resistant to treatment. Recently, asthetic medicines have been used sucessfully to remove or subdue the acne scars.
