Acne scars is worse than the acne itself. Siapa setuju? πŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ

Macam mana nak hilangkan parut jerawat ni eii stressnyaa ? 😭😭😭

ACNE SCARS & HOW TO TREAT THEM? πŸ€”

Jom scroll thread ni 🧚🏻✨
First of all, kita kena kenal pasti what type of acne scars yg kita ada.

Acne scars ada 2 jenis:
1. Post Inflammatory Erythema (PIE)
2. Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)

Apa beza PIE & PIH? 🀨
Post Inflammatory Erythema (PIE) ialah parut jerawat merah merah, biasanya affected by people yg ada light & fair skin tone.

PIE ni disebabkan oleh broken capillaries underneath the skin.
Broken capillaries ni berlaku bila :
β€’ Picit jerawat
β€’ Terdedah pada cahaya matahari terlalu lama 🌞
β€’ Guna harsh chemical exfoliator atau chemical burns πŸ₯΅

So macam mana kita nak rawat PIE ni? πŸ€”
Ingredients yg boleh membantu merawat PIE:

1. VITAMIN C ✨

βœ… Antioxidant
βœ… Brightening ingredient
βœ… Fight radicles
βœ… Promote collagen production
Contoh : L-Ascorbic acid

LAA ni very potent & highly unstable. Means bila pakai tu akan ada rasa tingling sensation, rasa mencucuk sikit.

⚠️ Kalau nak pakai LAA ni make sure ada basic skincare routine yg kukuh sebab boleh menyebabkan purging, irritation & breakout.
Tapi kalau nak try jugak vit C tapi takut, boleh try Vit C derivatives ✨

Vit C derivatives ni less potent & more stable than LAA. Benefits pun sama dgn Vit C & it is more gentle on the skin 😍

Contoh:
βœ… Ascorbyl Glucoside Solution
βœ… Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate
Next is Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH) ✨

PIH ialah parut jerawat yg gelap, brownish & easily affected by people with darker skin tone.

PIH disebabkan oleh excessive melanin production.
Macam mana nak rawat PIH? πŸ€”

Jawapannya,
Always cari brightening ingredients
seperti:

1. Vitamin C & Vitamin C derivatives ✨
βœ… Merawat both PIE & PIH
βœ… Brightening ingredients
βœ… Antioxidant
βœ… Promote collagen production
βœ… Fight radicles
2. Arbutin ✨

βœ… Inhibit or prevent melanin production
βœ… Brightening ingredients

Recommendation:
β€’ TO Alpha arbutin
3. Niacinamide ✨

βœ… Slows down the transfer of melanin production to cells.
βœ… Brightening ingredients

Recommendation:
β€’ TO Niacinamide
Another recommendation for PIH is to use Alpha Hydroxy Acid (AHA) ✨

AHA ni sejenis exfoliating ingredients yg berfungsi untuk removes dead skin cells.

Jenis jenis AHA:
βœ… Glycolic acid
βœ… Mandelic acid
βœ… Citric acid
βœ… Malic acid
Kalau beginner yg baru nak try AHA, always start with mandelic acid sebab molecule dalam mandelic acid ni lebih besar, so the chance for the skin to irritate is very low ✨

Guidelines to use AHA, always start with Mandelic acid then, Lactic acid & lastly Glycolic acid.
Benefits of AHA ✨
βœ… Exfoliates dead skin cells.
βœ… Brightens skin.
βœ… Promote collagen production.
βœ… Reduce the appearance of surface lines and wrinkles. (Anti-aging)
βœ… Correcting uneven skin tones.
βœ… Increase product absorption.
Recommendation of AHA (Mandelic Acid):
β€’ TO Mandelic acid
β€’ Wishtrend Mandelic acid
Recommendation for AHA (Lactic acid):
β€’ TO Lactic acid 5%
β€’ TO Lactic acid 10%

*P/s: Begin with lower concentration if you are a beginner πŸ˜‰
Recommendation for AHA (Glycolic acid):
β€’ PIXI Glow tonic (5% glycolic acid & sesuai utk beginner)
β€’ TO Glycolic acid 7%
β€’ AHA Cosrx 7
The most important thing to treat PIE or PIH is to ALWAYS WEAR SUNSCREEN 🌞

Sebab sun exposure akan menyebabkan production of melanin, so apa function kita pakai brightening ingredients kalau skin kita keep producing melanin kan? πŸ˜”β˜πŸ»

So please please WEAR YOUR SUNSCREEN! β˜€οΈ
