1. Start acne treatment as soon as acne marks appear.

This is the most simple and effective way to prevent acne scarring. Don’t wait for the period when acne marks are large and painful. You should see a dermatologist immediately and avoid those problems at all.

2. Try to prevent inflammation of acne.

Inflamed pieces of the skin tend to cause acne scars more than non-inflamed lesions. Don’t irritate your skin excessively (e.g. by agressive washing)

3.  Avoid picking, popping or squizzing at acne.

All these “treatments” can only spread infection, damage your skin, cause inflammation and can cause irremoveable acne scars.

4.  Check whether you inclined to acne scarring or not.

Some people are more inclined to appearing of acne scars than others. Know this when you will be visiting your doctor next.

5. Obligatorily see a doctor if your pimples are large.

The most severe forms of acne (e.g. nodules and cysts) tend to produce acne scars. These forms of acne can’t be healed at home so you should visit a professional dermatologist who will help you in solving these unpleasent problems.
