TheGuy123 1 Share Posted November 2, 2015 I have red marks all over both my cheeks. Since finishing accutane/roaccutane exactly 3 months ago today my red marks have faded quite a bit but are still there. Since they are fading, I have noticed that these scars have come out. I am wondering what scars are these? I believe that they are rolling scars. Also, will these scars heal over time on there own?? as I have seen a lot of similar scars which have healed on there own over 1/2 years.The pictures are only from my right cheek but my left cheek is very similar.

Naomiskin 4 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I think these are rolling and boxcar scars, i have similar ones, but worse. I don't think they gonna heal on their own:(. I fnished accutane in may, and my scars are basically the same. You could try dermarolling, that's what I will do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*DarkHeart* 75 Share Posted November 4, 2015 I have a couple shallow scars and my derm told me they could go away over a year or two, but there are no guarantees of course. If mine don't get better after a while I am going to try a dermastamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuy123 1 Author Share Posted November 4, 2015 I'm thinking of waiting 2 more months and buy ing a dermaroller from Amazon and dermaroll on my own. My scars are quite shallow and the pictures shown are in the worst lighting. I can keep you guys updated if you want by posting a monthly update on my skin changes?

struggling23 3 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Alternate dermarolling/dermastamping and 15-25% TCA peels every two weeks for six months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a.p. 54 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Before you go derma rolling or using chemical peels like TCA I would try prescription topical retinoids. Something like micro dermabrassion can help too. Make sure to use sunscreen as well.I bought myself an at home microdermabrasion device last winter and have noticed a difference in my rolling/boxcar scars. I also started using Epiduo around the same time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
