Rehabilitation

Rehabilitation is usually not necessary, as acne is self-limiting. However, treatment of remaining cosmetically disturbing scars can be carried out. There is no prophylaxis of acne, treatment is only given when skin changes occur.

The prognosis for acne is good, as it usually recedes by itself between 20 and 25 years. However, in the most severe cases, conspicuous scars may remain. A scar ointment such as Contractubex® is suitable for treating acne scars.
