Hello! I recently recovered from a huge cyst about the length and diameter of a golf ball (check out my previous post if you would like!) It was incredibly inflamed and painful, and leaked pus almost daily. I am relieved to be free of it, but it wasn't without a cost. It left the area indented, with further, deeper indentations across it. The entire area is slightly pink, with darker purple spots on the deeper indents. It is also riddled with ice pick scars (I've counted 13.) it is all in a very contained area, which makes mycheek lookrough and dirty. What can I do atthis point? The cyst and inflammation went away about two months ago! Pics here: [Edited link out]
From the single multiple pictures all I see is PIE or wounding from the cyst (redness) this will heal over a long time (makeup can be used) or a laser like IPL, V-beam, Excel V or 1064nm can be used to get rid of the red. I don't see denting so no subcision is needed.. I see a bit of textural issue so you can microneedle it and do a spot TCA peel on the area / cheek. Scars take time to heal I would not do anything for some months till it can do so. Our bodies can be slow to heal.
Edit: IMIGUR not loading properly on certain browsers. I stand by this, she does not need subcision, there is no pencil sized eraser divots in her face, everything is superficial and can be fixed with tca spot peels, microneedling, and retin a.

There's more than one pic, bro-ham. You gotta scroll down.

I definitely have some pitting and ~13 ice pick scars. I don't think they are super apparent in the photos, but they look pretty bad in person. I have two saucer-shaped scars about the depth of half an eraser. Theyare definitely made worse by hyperpigmentation, but are all indented as well. Would TCA facial spot peels still improve these types of scarring?
