From Angela Palmer, your Guide to Acne

There is only one thing I hate more than acne -- acne scars. Unfortunately, I scar easily (something my children seem to have inherited from me). Even a relatively small pimple can cause a depressed scar. Ugh!

If you're dealing with residual scars (or are hoping to prevent them) this week's newsletter is for you.

Keep up with those treatments this week!

Acne Scar Types
Acne scars can be raised, depressed, pitted, or simply discoloration. The type of scarring dictates the type of treatment needed.
