Some people may say that the presence of craters has made them lose confidence in their bare skin. However, cratering acne scars are quite difficult to improve through self-care. This article provides a thorough explanation of the causes of crater formation. For those who suffer from cratering skin, we will also introduce recommended acne scar treatments available at cosmetic dermatologists in Hiroshima, such as laser and microneedling.
Crater-like acne scars｜What are the causes of occurrence?
A type of acne scar, a crater is an indentation of the skin caused by severe acne. As acne worsens, inflammation and festering can spread to the dermal layer of the skin. The result,Damage destroys the tissue around the pore that was forming the pimple, causing it to become indented and cratered.The T-zone is the area that produces most of the sebum. In particular, the T-zone, such as the nose and between the eyebrows, where sebum production is high, and the cheeks and mouth, where acne tends to form due to dryness, are the most likely places for crater-like acne scars to appear. If inflammation continues for a long period of time or if a pimple is crushed, it is easy to develop crater-like pimple scars, so it is important to treat the symptoms as soon as possible.
Types of acne scar craters
There are multiple types of acne scar craters, which can be divided into three types according to size and shape: ice pick, box, and rolling. Understand the characteristics of each condition and choose the best treatment.

In some cases, the appearance can be misinterpreted as an open pore, but if a small hole appears in a previously acne-prone area, suspect an ice pick crater.
■Rolling type features
