Frequently Asked Questions
Post-inflammatory erythema (PIE), also known as macular erythema, refers to flat, red scars that result from inflammation caused by various conditions, including acne, chickenpox, and trauma from peels and lasers.
Unlike PIH, which is a form of hyperpigmentation that predominantly affects darker skin types, PIE can occur in both light and dark-skinned individuals. The natural course of PIE involves gradual improvement over a period of 2-12 months. However, in some cases, it may take years or longer for the scars to fade.
Advanced vascular laser treatment designed to reduce post-acne redness, calm inflammation, and restore clearer skin tone.
