Causes of crater-like acne scars

Inflamed acne causes deep damage to the dermis layer and tissue breakdown, resulting in crater-like acne scars. Even after the inflammation subsides, the tissue shrinks during the process of skin repair and remains as an indentation on the surface.

Crushing or touching the pimple with the hand aggravates the inflammation and further increases the risk of cratering acne scars.

Types of crater-like acne scars

There are three main types of crater-like acne scars.

• Ice pick shaped:Deep and narrow indentations as if pierced by a needle
• Boxcar type:Depression with flat bottom and well-defined boundaries
• Rolling type:Gentle wavy concavity

Each has a different depth and shape, so the appropriate treatment will vary. In some cases, multiple types are mixed.

Difference in impression depending on the site and degree of formation

Crater-like acne scars tend to appear on the forehead, cheeks, nose, temples, and other areas with high sebum production.

In mild cases, the indentations are shallow and only noticeable depending on light exposure. On the other hand, in severe cases, the indentations are deeper and the unevenness of the skin surface becomes more pronounced.
