Hello all

I have these acne scars for like 10 years now. At some point I gave up but now I have some renewed hope that I can do something about them. I am in LA and I will go to see Dr Quazi this week. Is there any hope ? For the big scar I am afraid that the only possibility will be an excision. I am really afraid that it will leave a big scar. I dont mind trading that scar for a smaller one because the dark pigmentation in the scar really bothers me. Also Im crossing my fingers that these will not need the subcision because that treatment just scares me a lot (and I red that it leaves saggy cheeks).
Please advise.

Yeah there's hope, but it can take a while to see results and multiple treatments. I would imagine for you, they might suggest TCA CROSS followed by a few sessions of ablative laser or microneedling + PRP.

For the bigger scar I'll be curious to hear what they recommend.
