Sculpt Your Confidence with Liposuction at Viara

A scar and blemish free face and body are a dream for most of us. Dealing with those Lingering reminders of past breakouts can be tough and here are few things that you can get done to achieve a clearer and glowing skin.

What acne scars really are?

They’re those little marks left behind after acne has run its course, and they can come in all shapes and sizes – from small pits to larger, more noticeable depressions. These scars happen when your skin tries to heal itself after a breakout, but things don’t quite go back to normal, leaving behind those pesky reminders.

Causes of Acne Scars

There are a bunch of factors that can lead to acne scars, but some of the usual
suspectsinclude:

Picking at pimples

We've all been guilty of it, but picking or squeezing your
pimples canmake things worse and increase the chances of scarring.

Stubborn, severe acne

Those deep, inflamed pimples are more likely to leave
scars behind, especially if they stick around for a while.

Waiting too long to treat acne

The sooner you tackle your acne, the better your chances of avoiding scars altogether.

Genetics

Some of us are just more prone to scarring than others, thanks to our genes and skin type.

Tips to Prevent Acne Scars

While we can’t always prevent acne scars entirely, there are some things you can do
to minimize their appearance:

01

Hands off

Avoid picking, squeezing, or poking at your pimples – it'll only make things worse!

02

Treat acne ASAP

Don't wait for things to get out of hand – start treating your acne as soon as you notice it to help prevent scarring.

03

Protect your skin

Wear sunscreen every day to shield your skin from the sun's harmful rays, which can make scars look worse.

04

Go gentle

Stick to gentle skincare products and avoid harsh scrubs or exfoliants that can irritate your skin and make things worse.

Treatments for Acne Scars

There are plenty of options with us to help smooth things out. Our doctors expertise and personalised treatment plans will aid in fetching you a clearer skin faster.

Topical treatments

These can include things like retinoids or vitamin C serums to help fade scars and even out your skin tone.

Chemical peels

These use gentle acids to exfoliate your skin and reveal fresher,smoother skin underneath.

Microneedling

This involves using tiny needles to stimulate collagen production and fill in scars from the inside out.

Laser therapy

Laser treatments can help resurface your skin and stimulate collagen production to improve the appearance of scars.

Dermal fillers

These can be injected into depressed scars to help plump them up and make them less noticeable.

Dietary Suggestions

Maintaining a healthy diet along with the treatments plays a significant role in
managingacne prone skin. While there’s no one-size-fits-all solution, incorporating certain foods into
your diet and avoiding others can help reduce inflammation, balance hormone
levels, and promote clearer skin. Here’s a guide to a diet for acne-prone skin:

Foods to Include:

01

Fruits and Vegetables

Load up on colorful fruits and vegetables rich in antioxidants,vitamins, and minerals. These include berries, oranges, carrots, spinach, kale, and bell peppers, which help combat inflammation and support skin health.

02

Omega-3 Fatty Acids

Incorporate foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as salmon, mackerel, sardines, walnuts, chia seeds, and flax seeds. Omega-3s have anti-inflammatory properties that can help reduce acne-related inflammation and promote healthy skin.

03

Whole Grains

Opt for whole grains like brown rice, quinoa, oats, and whole wheat bread over refined carbohydrates. Whole grains have a lower glycemic index, which means they cause less of a spike in blood sugar levels and may help reduce acne breakouts.

04

Lean Protein

Choose lean sources of protein such as poultry, fish, tofu, legumes, and beans. Protein is essential for skin repair and regeneration, but opt for lean options to avoid excess saturated fats, which may contribute to inflammation.

05

Probiotic Foods

Incorporate probiotic-rich foods like yogurt, kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchiinto your diet. Probiotics help promote gut health and may reduce inflammation, which can indirectly improve acne-prone skin.

06

Green Tea

Swap out sugary beverages for green tea, which contains antioxidants called catechins that have anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties. Green tea may help reduce sebum production and acne severity when consumed regularly.

Foods to Limit or Avoid

01

High-Glycemic Foods

 Limit your intake of sugary and processed foods like candy, pastries, white bread, and sugary cereals. These foods can cause spikes in blood sugar levels, leading to increased insulin production and potentially exacerbating acne.

02

Dairy Products

Some studies suggest that dairy products, particularly skim milk,may be linked to acne breakouts in certain individuals. Consider reducing your intake of dairy or opting for dairy alternatives like almond or soy milk.

03

Fried and Greasy Foods

Cut back on greasy and fried foods like french fries, potato chips, and fried chicken. These foods can contribute to excess oil production and may clogpores, leading to acne flare-ups.

04

Processed Foods

Minimize your consumption of processed foods and snacks like fast food, chips, and packaged snacks. These foods often contain unhealthy fats, additives, and preservatives that can trigger inflammation and worsen acne.

05

Sugary Beverages

 Avoid sugary drinks like soda, sweetened fruit juices, and energy drinks, as they can lead to spikes in blood sugar levels and contribute to acne development.

06

Hydration

Don't forget to stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. Hydration is essential for maintaining skin health and supporting the body's natural detoxification processes.
