Acne and Acne Scarring
Ongoing breakouts and congestion, or scars and texture left after acne has calmed down.
Written by Balanced Essence Medical Wellness
What Is Going On
Active acne and acne scarring are treated differently. Breakouts need calming first. Scars need collagen remodeling over time.
Common Causes and Context
- Scarring forms when deep inflammation damages the skin during healing.
- Microchanneling is postponed during an active breakout or skin infection.

How These Options Differ
