Can anyone else confirm that needling is no good for hypertrophic scars, though? Like I said before, I'm pretty sure my scars wouldn't be considered hypertrophic, but I want to be certain that needling is no good for those types of scars just to be on the safe side.

I would think, in theory, needling builds collagen, and in the case of raised scars, you want to be doing the opposite.
