–“These acne scars happen because inflammation damages the deeper skin layer, leading to loss of collagen. That’s why they look uneven but become less visible when you stretch the skin. In Ayurveda, this is mainly due to Vata and Pitta imbalance—Pitta causes inflammation, and Vata leads to poor healing and tissue loss. These scars are not completely permanent, but they usually don’t disappear fully on their own. However, with proper care, they can become much less noticeable over time. Balancing doshas, improving skin nourishment, and using herbs or oils can help improve skin texture. But deeper scars may need additional treatments if complete removal is desired.” —Internal Medicines: Tab. Arogyavardhini Vati – 1 tab BD after food Cap.

Hi Acne scars can’t be cured by oral medicines because the collagen under the skin gets deformed leading to acne scars formation I would like to suggest you to consult dermatologist for this because CO2 fractional laser is widely used to get rid of these scars…but eating oral medicines and applying ointment etc will not help with scars Thankyou

Namaste, These types of acne scars happen due to improper healing after inflammation. They are not fully permanent, but they don’t disappear completely either. The good part is — since they look less when you stretch your skin, they can improve with proper care. In Ayurveda, this is usually due to pitta (inflammation), kapha (thickened skin), and vata (uneven healing). So treatment focuses on calming inflammation and improving skin repair. You can take: Gandhak Rasayan – 1 tablet twice daily after food Manjishtadi Kashayam – 15 ml with equal water twice daily before food For external care: Apply Kumkumadi oil at night with gentle massage Use fresh aloe vera gel during the day Once or twice a week, use a mild paste of besan and a pinch of turmeric Avoid spicy, oily, and sugary foods, and try to manage stress as it worsens skin healing. Improvement takes time, usually a few months, but scars can become less noticeable with consistency. Consultation can help tailor this further to your needs.
