The best acne scar removal treatment should include a biological skin regeneration protein substance that also contains topical antimicrobial peptides that fights acne infection.

Once acne inflammation happens, caused by microbe infection in blocked pores, a person may present several different lesion types. Smaller red bumps are known as papules. Larger red bumps are known as nodules. Sometimes, lesions will have a yellowish white color. The lesion is then called a pustule, because its color is due to pus accumulated inside the lesion.

Acne scars appear, often permanently, after the lesion is healed. This scarring can appear by direct touching of the aggravated area, thus irritating the acne lesion. In order to decrease the risk of acne scarring, avoid the use of oily cosmetics on the damaged area. The affected skin should be consistently cleansed, and should not be squeezed. Picking and squeezing the area before it is ready to be drained can usually cause the lesion to be embedded deeper, thereby causing more severe scarring. In addition to the risk of scarring, doctors use to ask patients not to squeeze facial acne for the rare risk that the infectious collection can go into parts of the brain through the bloodstream, causing dangerous complications such as seizure, stroke, and even death.

Scars are more likely to appear from a sort of acne called nodulocystic or cystic acne; but even when they have the same origin, all scars are different.

Ice pick scars are narrow, sharp scars that make the skin appear it has been punctured with an ice-pick. They are commonly narrower than 2 mm and extend into the deep dermis or subcutaneous layer. Icepick scars are commonly too deep to cure with skin resurfacing treatments such as dermabrasion or laser resurfacing.

Punch Excision Treatment for Ice-pick Acne Scarring

This method of surgically treating acne scars is used on severe scars such as ice pick and deep scars. This procedure uses a punch biopsy instrument which is basically a round, sharp "cookie-cutter" instrument that comes in diameters ranging from 1.5 mm to 3.5 mm. The size of the tool is matched to the size of the scar to include the walls of the scar. Using local anesthesia the scar is excised with the punch instrument and the skin borders are sutured together. The newly produced scar eventually fades and may not be perceptible. If it is perceptible, it is more amenable now to resurfacing techniques or the use of skin regenerating accelerators.

Some solutions contain an exclusive skin regenerating substance and biological antibiotic proven to be efficient for the treatment of acne scars. They not only work for the elimination of keloid scars and to reduce pitted or ice pick scars, but also prevent scarring and act as a biological solution for adult and teen acne. They also work in collaboration with accutane or oral antibiotics for severe nodular cystic acne.
