Life after acne can feel an awful lot like life with acne. Scars may be marring your skin, leading you to cover up with makeup and shy away from simple looks. And while those scars act as external reminders of pimples, there are internal reminders, too. If you spent years with acne, you’re likely still feeling uncomfortable showing off your skin. Acne leads to both physical and emotional damage – and it takes concerted effort to clear both away.
What’s Left Over After Acne
Acne doesn’t clear up overnight – your skin just doesn’t work like that. Even if you see radical improvements, you might be feeling discouraged by a perceived lack of success with your anti-acne efforts. Once your acne has faded, some lingering feelings of self-consciousness are also common. Acne is hard for everyone, no matter who they are – and it compromises your self worth. After battling acne, while your skin might look clearer, you’re so accustomed to feeling anxious about it that those patterns remain.
There are a few different ways to move forward – and tackling any remaining acne scars is a great first step. Once your skin has less noticeable scarring, the emotional component will come quickly, and you’ll learn to love your skin again.
Effective Acne Scar Removal
Makeup is one option for covering acne scars – and the transformation can be incredible. But that’s always a temporary one, and ongoing makeup use can irritate your skin and lead to additional blemishes. Get to the root of the problem to see real-deal clear skin (without cover-ups).
If you Google “scar removal” you’re going to get every kind of result imaginable – some safe, some effective, some useless, and some leading to even more skin damage. How do you cut through the clutter and find treatment that really works?
