What It Is

Rolling scars are a type of acne scar that create a wave-like or uneven appearance on the skin. They are caused by fibrous bands forming under the skin, pulling the surface downward and creating shallow depressions. These scars are commonly seen on the cheeks and give the skin a bumpy or irregular texture.
