Hey guys,

Attached below are pictures of both my cheeks under both regular and angular lighting. Could you please have a look at the pictures and tell me how they would be classified based on type (atrophic, hypertrophic, rolling, boxcar?) and severity (mild, moderate, severe?). Also, could you please advise me the best course of action to take regarding improving these scars like subcision, fillers, TCA, lasers, etc? I'm a 19 year old male of Asian Indian descent and have recently got my acne under control and use differin gel every night while taking doxycycline tablets daily. I also dermaroll once per week using a 0.5 mm dermaroller and apply collagen cream every day after I wash my face.

@Dew BobScars are extremely mild. Some rolling scars, perhaps a few icepicks. Your 19 and will improve some on your own.
