THE marks and scars pimples form when the skin is damaged by acne or inflammation: these lesions damage the tissues and penetrate deep into the epidermis, which is why the scars tend to be persistent and last for years .
Which Skin Type is Most Affected?
THE Oily skin and acne-prone skin are often prone to pimple marks since the skin's balance is disrupted. Acne-prone skin produces too much sebum, which clogs pores and promotes the appearance of inflammation. Once the pimple disappears, it leaves a mark under the skin, which appears as red or dark spots.
THE Fair skin is not at greater risk for the appearance of scars, however these will be more visible on a fair complexion. While on the dark skin , scars tend to take the form of brown spots, due to melanin: this is what we call hyperpigmentation spots .
