What Causes Acne Scarring?
What Does Acne Scarring Look Like?
Acne scarring appears at the site of your acne-related cyst. There are three types of acne scars:
- Shallow acne scarring known as atrophic
- Boxcar-shaped acne scarring
- Narrow and deep acne scarring that is shaped like the tip of an ice pick
If you have dark skin, you may also have hyperpigmentation, or skin darkening, within the acne scarring. People with lighter skin typically have areas of redness within the acne scarring.
