Acne Scars may result from failure to properly treat even mild superficial acne lesions, not only from severe inflammatory nodular or cystic acne occurring deep in the dermis.

So stop playing with fire and become proactive. Treat your acne lesions before they "spread" and before you regret not having taken care of what needed to be taken care of on time.

Acne scars are characterized either by loss of tissue (ice pick or indented scars, depressed fibrotic scars) or the abnormal formation of new thickened tissues (fibrotic, hypertrophic or keloid scars).

They are the legacy of an overreaction of your body’s immune system to lesions caused to the cells lining the sebum canals by a sudden outflow of sebum to the surface of the skin or because of increased pressure on those cells arising from blockage of such outflow by plugged pores.

In fact acne scars result when your immune system has to rely just on its own resources to heal acne, for then it acts according to the evolutionary lesson it learned: all lesions represent a perilous threat to our survival, not only due to blood loss, but also due to tissue damage or infection from the invasion of foreign bodies such as dirt, splinters and bacteria.

The healing mechanisms that evolved to respond to such a threat have two fundamental characteristics: First, there is a rapid and robust inflammatory response, which sets the alarms on fire and triggers a cascade of events that begins with a call to action of its army of soldiers by the names of macrophages, neutrophils and lymphocytes to the injured site; and second, there is a fibrotic "walling-off" response to isolate foreign bodies, and prevent microbes from ceasing the opportunity to penetrate the body at the site of a lesion.

Problem is those soldiers arrive inflamed with chemical weapons that can care less if they also destroy or liquefy adjacent tissue and lead to abscess formation. After all they’ve learned, during our evolutionary drift, that intruders at a site of lesion may very well become a matter of life or death.

Beauty and hygiene is not our immune system’s concern.

To restore the integrity of the skin barrier as quickly as possible, closure of skin lesions and repair of missing skin tissue occur rapidly by an evolutionary mechanism that leads to granulation and fibrotic tissues, and in other more common words: scarring.

Now, in normal skin formation or in skin regeneration without scarring, extracellular matrix is formed with the collagen bundles deposited in a basketweave pattern. By contrast, when granulation tissue forms in wound healing, collagen bundles are laid down in parallel bundles between the margins of the lesion. The abnormal architecture of the collagen bundle deposition creates tissue of weaker tensile strength and produces the characteristic scar.

Studies of the wound healing process in humans and in animals show with no doubt that the first 48 hours after a skin lesion appear to be critical in determining the scar outcome. Best results are obtained when interventions are made within this window. A possible explanation is that the small number of master signaling molecules in the initial cytokine cascade triggered by the skin healing process can profoundly affect the levels and ratios of inflammatory cells and growth factors recruited to the wound site. In addition, the recruited cells influence the receptor profiles on the target cells, further affecting the wound healing response and subsequent scar formation.

So you’ll be better off if you take action quickly with appropriate factors to prevent cells from initiating the signaling cascade that leads to acne healing by the scarring pathway. That is, when the first signs of acne show up during adolescence or any time you experience breakouts… so that you won’t hate yourself later!!!

We’re here to help you become aware that you can avoid scarring and to outline all the facts and convince you that our natural remedy is the best solution to prevent acne scarring. Armed with this knowledge you may gain momentum and give yourself the kickstart, instead of procrastinating and lamenting stinking regrets!
