Hi, 

So while my pitted acne scarring definitely bothers me, what bothers me more is this texture that exists on certain areas of my forehead. I have speculations that this is partly due to a microneedling that didn™t heal well a couple years ago..regardless I™ve gotten a couple treatments since then and I feel like it™s improved. Is texture easier to treat than pitted scarring? Any success stories? I™ll definitely be working on my pitted scarring more, but I don™t mind some of the pitted it™s more just this general texture that exists under a lot of different light. The camera doesn™t pickup exactly how it looks in person but hopefully it gives the idea.

thank you

If you're talking about the discoloration/redness, several sessions of Vbeam laser or Excel V would help with that.

AHA cream or serum can help with texture. Anything that exfoliates you should be researching if you're looking to do something at home. CROSS is a good treatment option for the pitting scar, but I'd make an appointment with a dermatologist to give them a better look at your scarring.
