HOW TO GET RID OF ACNE SCARS

Acne is a common skin condition that affects most people at some point. Reasons can vary: Poor hygiene, drastic change in eating habits, stress or hormonal disbalance. Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is those dark marks or spots left behind after blemishes heal. Often, they can be even more stressful and harder to get rid of than pimples themselves.  

Senself formulas, packed with wound healer plants, adaptogens and anti-inflammatory ingredients, promote rapid healing of tissues and stimulate skin renewal. Our treatment serum and moisturizer are powered by the ingredients which can help you achieve your skin goals and one of them is getting rid of acne scars. 

1. Prevention 

It can be very tempting to start touching your pimples in attempt to squeeze them, but this leads to increased inflammation and spread of breakouts. When you have a pimple, the pore is already swollen and under a lot of pressure. When you squeeze it, you can force the debris from the pore deeper into the follicle promoting infection.  

2. Gentle exfoliation

Glycolic and Lactic Acid - AHA acids in Skin Rebound treatment work by dissolving oil, dead skin cells and debris from inside the pore while exfoliating dead surface skin cells. Skin cell turnover from exfoliating with glycolic and lactic acids can reduce acne scars and help soothe inflamed skin. 

AHA's minimize the appearance of hyperpigmentation and can expedite your skin cell turnover and healing process.

 3. Anti-inflammatory skin care

Inflammation is one of the main reasons why acne breaks out so, adding in anti-inflammatory ingredients can decrease the occurrence of breakouts and encourage skin regeneration.

NETTLE 

A powerful antioxidant for its anti-inflammatory and detoxifying properties. Accelerates the healing process of skin and encourages cell growth. Due to its antimicrobial properties, it helps kill off bacteria making it effective against acne. 

PLANTAGO

Also known as a wound healer plant, is ideal for sensitive skin. It contains Allantoin, which moisturises the skin and promotes renewal of epidermal cells. Plantago is particularly potent ingredient when it comes to reducing production of access sebum, while simultaneously reducing the free radicals.

NIACINAMIDE

Antioxidant, anti-inflammatory also known as vitamin B3. By including niacinamide in Rich but Light moisturizer, the moisture content of the skin is normalized, which helps prevent further breakouts by reducing excess oil production. By easing inflammation and preventing transepidermal water loss, it is a hero ingredient if your concern is acne. 

4. Microneedling

Microneedling, also known as collagen induction therapy, is the insertion of very fine short, sterilized needles into the skin for rejuvenation. When the skin feels the needles, your body naturally rushes to heal them, resulting in a more youthful appearance.

With all of that said, don’t forget to take care of yourself from outside, also from the inside. Remember, try to de-stress and keep your body hydrated. Your body will thank you for that.
