Hi everyone!! I am 23 years old and I have been fighting against acne since 10. My acne stopped last year. However, I still have occasional breakout on jaw area during my period. My severe acne scars have put me in some dark stages in my life T_T. Therefore, I am hoping someone can advise me on my scars treatment. ï¿«;´¥ï¿©
The doctor recommended 1) a combination of ResurFX laser and IPL laser and 2) subcision. I am suspicious whether 1) will help with my acne scars. Any thoughts?
Subcision and TCA cross seem to be the best treatment for my acne scars. Anything else should I bear in mind?
I am just a beginner in the scars treatment journey (it might take years), but I am definitely not giving up!
To those who are reading this: You are so strong and brave to survive this experience. Let's fight together!!
I'd for sure do CROSS (try phenol instead of TCA if possible since you're Asian). I see some rolling so a few subcision treatments would be good. If you have the money try sculptra with your subcisions. If not you can do chinese cupping. You can also try microneedling before considering lasers. Lasers would not work for the scars you have. Can considera laser like erbium ablativeor chemical peels once scars are leveled with the rest of the face for texture issues that CROSS can cause.
