I have mostly deep rolling atrophic (fat loss) scars on both cheeks. No icepick, some boxcars. I have 3 options:

1. Subcision with fat grafting without stem cells + RF microneedling.

2. Subcision with Sculptra + CO2.

3. Subcision + Ellanse filler.

Which treatments is suited best for deep rolling scars with fat loss and has the most improvement?

Pictures of your scar would really help in assessing which modality is best for you.

Did you had any improvements with subcision only?

yes, and i would recommend subcision
but i would think a filler would help from re-tethering (just my theory, no experience on it)

It really depends on the scars and your own personal situation but all 3 are viable options. The fat grafting is something I looked at and just be aware it could "shift" within your face, although I really can't get a clear answer on how good it is because 1 doctor said not worth it, another said totally worth it. It might be person specific and scar/area specific.

You might want to try to see if you respond to filler + something first before fat grafting because that's quite permanent. Why not try like subcision and sculptra or another temp filler see how it goes.
