The scratching or squeezing of acne, should be avoided at all times. Many suffers are told this from an early stage of their diagnosis. This advice however, is usually not taken too seriously.
This results in most acne suffers squeezing their pimples. Acne needs to be aided properly, and when scratched frequently, the chances of scarring and lasting damage is quite inevitable.
For many people this could be a problem, because the scarring left behind when the acne clears up, could be even uglier than the pimples they initially had. The other problem is that scars take a long time heal, and sometimes they don't heal at all.
The best recommendation for acne sufferers, is to avoid scratching or squeezing your pimples. If you cannot avoid squeezing them and are left with deep scars, this will call for a certain type of acne scar removal treatment.
Now, what you have to remember about professional acne scar removal is that it is quite painful when undergoing this form of surgery. You will have to be prepared as any surgery used to treat scars, whether they are acne scars or any other scars, is usually quite painful.
There are other ways that you can remove acne scars, and that is with a scar removal cream or a solution. However, creams may take a while to work, and they may only work for mild to moderate scars; by exfoliating the scarred area for new skin to grow to replace the old.
The best way to treat acne scars is still by means of laser surgery. The main concern regarding laser surgery is that most medical aid will not subsidize for this operation, which means that you will have to pay for it with your own source of money. Another apprehension is the expensive cost. This decision should be made carefully which brings us to our last point; practicing good face hygiene and avoiding squeezing or scratching, is a far more efficient way to deal with acne.
