How can I remove a bumpy keloid acne scar on my chin?

A multimodal approach is often needed to remove acne scars. These can include: subcision TCA CROSS and punch excision with microsurgery apart from laser treatments Acne scars can be depressed or raised, with or without discoloration. Examples of depressed scars are ice pick scars, box scars and rolling scars. Raised scars are called hypertrophic or keloid scars, which result from an overproduction of collagen. Sometimes, a red or brown discoloration remains after acne has healed, and these are called post-inflammatory erythema (red) and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (brown).

Hi, The most important age factor to consider when to undergo acne scar treatment is not the age per say but when the acne is no longer active. This is because continued active acne will result in new scars and undo the benefits of the acne scar treatment. For some patients, active acne may persist way into their 20’s and even 30’s. In my experience, the clinical response to acne scar treatment is quite similar when treatment is done in the 20’s or in the 30-40’s. Hope this helps!
