If you are left with persistent red marks after acne has cleared, you may be experiencing Post-Acne Erythema (PAE). Unlike pigmentation, PAE is caused by damaged and dilated blood vessels within the skin, resulting in lingering redness that can persist for months or even years.
At Kriniko Medical Aesthetics, we offer an evidence-based 12-week treatment pathway combining advanced regenerative medicine, microneedling and medical-grade skincare to reduce redness, improve skin quality and restore confidence.
What is Post-Acne Erythema?
Post-Acne Erythema appears as flat red, pink or purple marks left behind following inflammatory acne lesions. It is particularly common in fair skin types but can affect all skin tones.
Common characteristics include:
- Persistent red marks after acne has healed
- Skin sensitivity and inflammation
- Uneven skin texture
- Early acne scarring
- Reduced skin confidence
Early intervention can significantly improve outcomes and reduce the risk of permanent acne scarring.
