👉 Abandoned pimples, also known as cystic acne scars, are deep, raised scars that form when hair follicles become blocked with oil and dead skin cells. Unlike common acne, which appears as red, inflamed bumps, these scars develop when the pores become blocked and fill with pus, bacteria, and dead tissue, leading to a more severe and often permanent injury. Over time, these blocked follicles can become inflamed and swollen, resulting in the formation of cysts or nodules. When these cysts burst, they leave behind scars that can be red, swollen, and painful, often appearing as dimpled or pitted skin. These scars can vary in size and depth, but they typically leave a noticeable mark on the skin's surface, affecting both appearance and self-confidence.
