What treatments have you had?

I've had:
Best treatments so far:
3-5 TCA Cross (for ice pick)
6 subcisions (rolling) combined with laser OR suction
Sciton Profractional (rolling)
Worst:
Halo
Fraxel Restore
Microneedling
Over time, my scarring has improved. The two boxcar are now the most noticeable because of the edges of the scars.

Everyone says it helps but I think it depends on the person. I scar very easily and my skin is just not that great which might be why I never saw results but it might work for others. I actually found a plastic surgeon in my area that does punch excision/dermal grafting specifically for acne scars so Im going to go in for consultation and if I go through with it Ill let you know how it goes! Its just frustrating because were 3-D printing hearts and have all sorts of technology yet acne scars are hard to fix which is hard for me to believe. I just dont think they want to fix acne scars quickly because they know its a money maker. If the excision/graftingdoesnt work then I give up haha.
