Overview

Once acne disappears, some individuals are left with permanent scars. Two types of scars are pitted and pigmented. Pigmented scars are discoloration of the skin, normally either brown or red in color. Pigmented scars are the most common scarring that occurs from acne. Pitted scars, however, are more difficult to treat. A pitted scar is damaged skin that is often permanent. There are many products available that claim to lessen acne scarring. One such cream is Zenmed.

Identification

Zenmed offers a skin lightening cream that helps with acne scars. Skin Eraser, designed to lighten discolored skin and improve redness, works well in combination with the Renewing MicroDermabrasion Complex. When used together the products work by sloughing off the dead skin cells, bringing forth new fresh looking skin.

Benefits

The skin lightening cream is designed for all skin types. Its ingredients provide nutrients to the skin, without damaging it. According to Top Acne Products, Zenmed helps those individuals with mild to moderate acne scarring.

Function

According to Treatment for Acne Scars, Zenmed helps improve hyperpigmentation and discoloration of the skin caused by acne scars. The treatment levels out the surface of the skin to create a silky texture and healthy radiance by encouraging collagen production, which plumps up the skin and corrects pitted acne scarring.

Cost

As of 2010, the product costs around $60. The Zenmed product comes with a money back guarantee. If within 60 days you are not happy with the results, you can return the product for a complete refund. Shipping and handling are not refunded. In order to qualify for the refund, all bottles must be returned even if empty.

Time Frame

According to Zenmed, after one application the acne scars will begin to fade: After three to four applications pigment evens out, and collagen levels increase; after eight to 10 applications the acne scars appear less noticeable and imperfections have been decreased.
