Treating Acne Scars

During adolescence, everyone suffers through the unpleasantness of acne. However, some people continue to be plagued by it through acne scars that are often caused by inflammation. The good news is, there are plenty of ways you can treat your acne scars. 

Topical Treatments 

When addressing your acne scars, one place to start is with a variety of topical treatments. Some of the most popular products are retinoids because they can improve your skin in a variety of ways. Retinoids are derived from vitamin A and help speed up the regeneration of skin cells which helps to smooth over acne scars. You can also use retinoids to improve discoloration and to address wrinkles. Other acne scar treatments include lactic acid and salicylic acid. Lactic acid is used to improve the texture and appearance of skin. It can be found in a variety of products, but it is also present in apple cider vinegar. Salicylic acid is one of the best treatments for acne and it’s found in most acne products. It exfoliates your skin and helps to reduce inflammation.

Professional Treatments

For a more thorough approach, you can have treatments done at a clinic. At Femme Moderne Center for Aesthetics, your acne scars can be addressed through laser treatments that are precise enough to treat almost any situation. In addition to laser treatments, you can receive chemical peels, facials, and products to aid in treating your acne scars. Another popular treatment is dermabrasion. With this treatment, your face undergoes intense exfoliation to remove the top layer of skin. This deep exfoliation removes acne scars close to the surface of the skin and it can give you skin a fresh new look. Our special package, the Young & Moderne Package, was curated by Femme Moderne for the total treatment of acne, including facials, chemical peels, laser treatment, and medical-grade product to treat your acne.

Improved Skincare Routine 

In addition to a variety of treatments, your acne scars can be addressed through your everyday skincare routine. Making an effort to improve the way you care for skin can help to reduce acne scars. One of the best things you can do is wear sunscreen. Sun exposure can actually make dark spots and acne scars worse, so you want to keep your skin protected. As a part of your skincare routine, you should make sure you are regularly exfoliating and moisturizing your skin. 


Getting rid of acne scars can be a difficult task. Remember to try out several methods until you find one that works well for you. It’s worth the effort to help you get rid of these scars.
