Hi there , i got some deep scars due to post cystic acne and my skin is still red , i was wondering which scars treatment could help the most for the redness and these ''holes'' in the skin. i heard some people talking about retin-a or microneedling therapy ?IMG_0315.JPG

Hey, maybe try Retin-A for now while you let it calm down for a bit? Seems like it is a bit irritated, I'm sure it will look better once it calms down. You could try differin/Retin-A and a safe oil or vasline for now.

Later you can do TCA cross/skin needling/ peels etc

Good luck! Seem like the rest of your skin is in really good shape though so your skin will probably recover.

Understandable. Vaseline usually doesn't clog pores though, try on a small space on your forehead and see how you react.
