Hello

I have been 'suffering' from acne since I was a teenager. My parents were not very active in helping me (just told me to wash my face) and the doctors I went to gave me some medication and said it will clear up once I'm past my teens.

It has resulted in leaving me with some scarring that has dented my confidence quite a bit. I have lots of icepick and some boxscars. 

 

I wish I had found this place about 10 years ago. I have been reading the forums and everyone here is so friendly and helpful!

 

I have looked at treating my scars, here in the uk, from some of the skin clinics (they don't have very good reviews). 

I'd like to know does anyone have any positive experience from the UK or would going abroad (maybe to Dr Emil) be the best option for me.

Seems like subcision filler and cross would be the optimal choice.

Hello. I recently went to Dr Anil London. From the research I did, he seemed like a guy who has acne scars knowledge, and has infini rf, subcision and prp (and fillers). I think he is good to go to, and if it doesn't work there is Dr H Consult for more hardcore lasers.

Thank you for your recommendation but from what I have read and the zero reviews I found of Dr Hussein, I would not consider him as one of my 1st choices.

I was wondering if anyone who has had positive treatment / after care could recommend a Dr in the uk
