icepickloser 0 Share Posted February 6, 2013 (edited) i define tiny ice pick scar is scar with diameter smaller or equal to 1mm http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff175/ribusensei/PA310054.jpg i borrow this pic from other, but my ice pick are in same scale and magnitude with her i got them from picking... coz i'd already wait too long for the scab to fall off (1month)....i knew i was stupid now, keep making believe that some say there will be a scar too even never pick it if lasting too long like me.... Some say yes, it could greatly improve Some say never Some say retinA help in first year since it form i won't try TCA cross, coz i think it's too much risk for a small ice pick scar >< Any share??

tracy521 277 Share Posted February 6, 2013 i had tons of those when i was younger and they all filled in. i even had some box car scars and they filled in too with time. taking at least 1000mg of vitamin c a day can help too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

User174136 164 Share Posted February 6, 2013 I have a teeny tiny ice pick scar on my cheek. It's slowly becoming shallower with the regular use of glycolic acid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

nairai 1 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I too have ice pick scars since i had bad acne last year from the birth control i was using (nexplanon implant) and they put me on dianette pill to clear up acne but i think it cleared it up too quickly and left loads of indented scars and red marks (i did occasionally pick too :/) Since I am an actor, I like my skin to look nice on screen. I have been using an anti-wrinkle cream (weird i know considering i'm only 21) and this has actually seemed to help me as well as my skin feeling really soft. I still have a lot of scars though but my mam suffered with the same thing and now her skin is really soft and no scars at all (she used anti-wrinkle from age 25) I hope this helps you. Does anyone have any reviews or before and after pics of a TCA peel? this is my next step i think but i am scared! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How deep or how shallow is it? Mines are fresh about 2 to 4 months old and im also youn (16). I am also thinking of being in showbiz but that's not happening cause of my acne and scars. I also have a dogbite scar on my nosebridge between my eyes. For the peels, a lot of people have negative reviews for peels but there are also a lot of positive reviews. I havent had a peel so i woudnt know anything. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

tracy521 277 Share Posted August 21, 2013 (edited) no my didnt take that long maybe 1-2 years at the most. i cant remember the time frame but it wasnt that long. i was in my 20's though at the time. i did have ipl's done on the areas so maybe somehow it also helped collagen production? i dont know i just know that i did have those areas zapped a few times for the redness.
