What are my options to remove all of my scars on my face? I am looking for the best results.

I have taken Accutane for about 6 months, used Tretinoin .1% for about 6 months and I started using Aztec secret indian healing clay weekly about two months ago.

I have seen a Dermatologist and they recommended the CO2 Laser Resurfacing procedure however I wanted to continue my research and hear other opinions.

Thank you

I would suggest spot tca peels on all the areas with scars and tca cross. For instructions now how to do them goto the faq, top post of the acne scar sub, then goto the tca section, and all things peels link. Because of your skin type you will have to use hydroquoinone and vitamin c serum 2 weeks before and after you heal from your peels to avoid hyperpigmentation.

Thank you very much everyone! I am going to search for a Dermatologist for the TCA cross procedure. I am assuming I will need to use sun screen after every treatment. If so, what product/brand should I use?

Yes - please use sunscreen religiously so you do not get permanent hyperpigmentation on the treated areas. I recommend EltaMD sunscreen - can be found on amazon for around $25

The list of doctors we know is on the faq top of the acne scar sub and the bottom. Otherwise look at the yelp.com for reviews and call and see if they do tca cross also realself.com
