Did you know that 71% of people feel that their acne scars negatively affect their self-confidence and 66% of people say their acne scars make them feel frustrated or angry? However, acne scars shouldn’t define anyone. You are beautiful and deserve to break free from your acne scars.
5 Steps for Living Scar Free
1. Find a Supportive Community
Whether it’s a group you meet with weekly, or an online community such as “A Scar Free Me” that allows for dialogue with your peers, find a support system where you feel comfortable – and empowered! – to talk about your acne scars.
2. Talk to an Expert
When it comes to treating acne scars, doctors know best. Schedule a consultation with your local dermatologist to review treatment options. Never be afraid to ask for help.
3. Education is Power
If you feel like you’ve exhausted all your options, reevaluate. Thoroughly research and stay up to date with what treatments are available. You may be surprised at what you find. For example, the FDA recently approved Bellafil, a dermal filler, for the correction of moderate to severe, atrophic, distensible facial acne scars on the cheek in patients over the age of 21 years.

4. Affirmation
When was the last time you told yourself you’re beautiful? Try and do this every day! Make a habit of it by looking into the mirror each morning and reaffirming your self-image and self-worth. Start out by saying something as simple as, “You look great!,” or “My scars don’t define me.”
5. Confidence is Key
Take proactive steps to become your most confident, beautiful self and love the skin you’re in! Don’t let acne scars impact how you feel.
