stacy31 0 Share Posted July 21, 2004 Has anyone tried using retin-A or retin-A micro on scars? I have several scars (appearing like ice pick scars) on my cheek. I just wondered if it actually would make the scars worse or improve them. Two of the scars I actually received after a bad reaction to collagen injections....Don't you just love it when you invest in scar treatments and end up with new scars? Anyway, I know they won't go away, but I would like to improve the texture. I have seen different posts about Vitamin E oil and Emu oil, but I have heard these really do nothing for these type scars. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
