The best thing you can doat home is searching fora professional to perform the procedures on you. Do not put yourself at risk by wasting money on ineffective and potentially damaging products.
Finished my first session on Thursday. Didn't think RF microneedling would be as painful as it was...thought it would be similar to dermarolling which I tried years ago. Next session is in 4 weeks. I'll take an updated picture just prior to it.
Some progress pics before my 2nd session later this week. Kinda hard to get some good pics due to lighting. Kinda hard to judge whether it improved any because I moved into a new apartment the same day as my first session and the lighting where I look in the mirror is totally different than what I was used to.
Just got back from treatment. Face is super red and swollen still but here is what it looks like.
What treatments are you doing specifically? I saw you write RF needling + laser but specifically what laser. I also don't think needling will do anything. Truth is it's very shallow but yes I get that you want to rid that texture I have the same on my left side. Pretty invisible from farther away but noticeable up close or in shining light/shadows.
I can't tell if it's improved or not simply because it's so different in different lights/angles same as me sort of. It looks less pronounced perhaps as in less sharp, but there's still the same texture pattern that needs better options to blend imo.

Might need a more ablative treatment, but there are always risks. I don't think that combo is going to help much to be blunt. It looks like it might be softer or it could just be the lighting I can't really tell, but the texture probably is more or less similar. It's very difficult to treat more shallow scarring but yours and mine has the same textural pattern and doctors don't have many solutions.
Personally I'd try another dermabrasion but not with these current botox docs or with crazy 8k or 10k estimates for a gamble.
Getsmart do you think co2 erbium would ablate the texture enough or is sanding the only possible solution to this thing? Honestly idk. I have the same texture in lighting. It's almost like the skin layers don't want to heal properly together and you'd think it would be an easier fix but it seemingly isn't.
