Have you ever touched your skin and felt dry, rough patches on certain areas? Or found that certain spots seem to feel like they’re producing more sebum than others? These are the most common signs of an uneven skin texture. the most prominent features of this skin concern as “dry or coarse feeling skin, patchiness, fine lines and wrinkles, enlarged open pores, and scars left behind post acne (acne scarring).
There are different types of acne scarring:
Apart from acne, a host of other factors lead to an uneven skin texture. Excessive build-up of dead skin cells on the surface of the skin, genetics, sun damage and pollution, and a poor skincare routine and diet are common causes of an uneven skin texture. Ageing also plays a big role in skin texture—we lose 1 percent production of collagen every year, right from our 20s and every 3 percent loss of collagen becomes evident to the eye. If not controlled early on, this would eventually lead to older, loose looking skin with fine lines and wrinkles, hence giving you uneven skin texture.
There are different types of acne scarring:
- Atrophic scars are flat, shallow depressions that heal below the top layer of skin. ...
- Boxcar scars are broad, usually box-like depressions with sharply defined edges. ...
- Ice pick scars are smaller, more narrow indentations that point down into the skin's surface.
- Rolling scars have a varying depth, with sloping edges that make skin appear wavy and uneven.
- Hypertrophic/keloid scars- Unlike atrophic scars, hypertrophic and keloid scars form as raised lumps of scar tissue where the acne once was. Hypertrophic scars are the same size as the acne that caused them. Keloid scars create a scar larger than the acne that caused them and grow beyond the sides of the original spot
