Removing acne scars from the face requires selecting appropriate treatment methods based on their specific type. For mild discoloration alone, facial masks or topical vitamin E ointment may help improve pigmentation; additionally, intense pulsed light (IPL) therapy can be used as an adjunctive treatment. For more severe acne scars—particularly those involving textural changes in the skin—anti-scarring medications such as polysulfated mucopolysaccharide are typically required, combined with carbon dioxide (CO₂) fractional laser therapy to effectively remove facial acne scars.
