Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Had some pretty bad cystic acne on my jaw the past couple of years until I finally decided to go on accutane. I finished accutane about a month ago and am dealing with a sever scar on the left side of my face. What can I do about it? It looks worse when I stretch my face out.

That is either hypertrophic or deeply tethered

I think a combination of both. It looks like keloid scarring that is deeply tethered.

You could get this to improve. I'm guessing a combo of maybe subcision and ablative laser or maybe even a punch excision. But can't be sure, and you need to be under the care of a really good doc for this.
