Does Botox Treat Deep Acne Scars?

Botox is a cosmetic procedure that helps to treat wrinkles, migraines, frown lines, and hemorrhoids.

Then you will get a doubt that how can Botox treat deep acne scar?

A study conducted on this particular aspect found that Botox helped facial wounds heal with minimal scarring.

The cause this works is since wide scars are the effects of the local muscles dragging the wound away during the healing stage.

Botulinum toxin momentarily weakens the adjacent muscles, thus lessening the pull on the wound through the acute healing stage of the initial 2-4 months period.

Botox can be best used in combination healing where all of the aspects of a skin defects can be corrected. Various things lend to the size and the intensity of deep acne or bumpy acne scar.

This comprises muscle damage and collagen loss that can happen from inflamed acne cysts that develop under your skin and lead to deep tissue damage.

Soothing the tensed facial muscle by using Botox can lessen the look of the depth of acne scar. But due to the loss of collagen, still the scar may be apparent. During this condition, your physician can inject injectable fillers made with collagen or hyaluronic acid to totally fill the acne scar.

In order to stop the emergence of acne scar, you need to undergo the treatment regularly because as the Botox effect wears off, the scar may reappear. The results of Botox may only last for six months.
