RESUMO
Acne scarring is common and can occur despite effective acne management. Acne scarring patients suffer from significant psychosocial morbidity including depression and suicidality. Despite availability and advancement of therapeutic modalities, treatment for acne scarring is uncommon and often overlooked in the acne patient encounter. The utilization of acne scarring assessment tools and identification of specific acne scar subtypes allow for a tailored therapeutic approach. Part I of this continuing medical education series covers the pathophysiology and morphology of textural and pigmented acne scars, scarring assessment tools and medical treatment options. The principles reviewed will aid in the approach and initiation of acne scar treatment in the outpatient setting.
RESUMO
The optimal treatment of acne scarring is challenging because it involves consideration of several factors, including the type and number of scars, Fitzpatrick skin type, and the amount of downtime permissible to the patient. The second article in this CME series discusses the procedural treatments available for acne scarring, including the use of chemical peels, fillers, radiofrequency microneedling, lasers and surgical procedures. The indications for each modality, evidence for its benefits, and the adverse effects are discussed. This section aims to help guide the reader to select and implement the most appropriate treatment based on the patient's preferences, acne scar and skin type.
