Acne scars are the result of inflammation within the dermal layer of skin, brought on by acne, and are estimated to affect 95% of people with acne vulgaris. The scar is created by an abnormal form of healing following this dermal inflammation.
From the Ayurvedic point of view, acne is the result of high Pitta (fire, heat) moving under the skin and breaking out in pimples. From the angle of Chinese medicine, the main cause for acne is too much Yang energy. The heat of Yang can result in the flow of excessive toxic substances into the bloodstream, thus causing inflammation and swelling.
