Sun For Acne Scars

Sun For Acne Scars?

Sun exposure may dry out an acne blemish, but over time, the sun exposure can ruin the skin and further worsen acne.

The formation of acne scars can be prevented if you will avoid exposing your skin to the sun’s rays.

The American Academy of Dermatology advises that you should treat a scar as soon as possible and always wear a high level sun block because the sun can make the scar darker.

Sun exposure may also worsen the appearance of fresh scars and result in excess collagen deposition. Excessive sun exposure will increase the duration of the red phase of scar maturation, as well as causing excessive pigmentation to the ultimate scar.

Wearing sunscreen is the best thing you can do to help your scars heal correctly.
