  • Title: Surgical treatment of acne scars.
    Author: Stal S, Hamilton S, Spira M.
    Journal: Clin Plast Surg; 1987 Apr; 14(2):261-76. PubMed ID: 2953520.
    Abstract:
    Dermatologists and their plastic surgical colleagues treating acne vulgaris and its sequelae have an effective arsenal of anti-acne preparations to inhibit and avoid many of the long-term, cosmetically deforming effects of severe inflammatory acne. It is incumbent upon the physician participating in the care of the early and late sequelae of acne vulgaris to provide timely surgical therapy for those lesions requiring surgical drainage, extraction, or scar revision, while maintaining appropriate medical therapy for those areas of the skin still at risk to develop active disease.
