I had severe acne in high school, especially on my nose. Years later I now have this scars on my nose. They're bumpy and raised. Noticeable on any lighting. It is ruining my self-esteem to a point where just looking in the mirror can ruin my day. Feeling a little hopeless and quite depressed. Will I ever have a normal nose texture again? Is this fixable? I just need all the information and suggestion I can get at this point. Currently saving for a dermatologist consultation. Thanks guys.
I can hear how much this bothers you, so you may want to find a good scar revision specialist. A lot of things can be done with scarring to even out the topography of skin. I imagine they will suggest either laser or chemical peels for your scarring.

Keloids and hypertrophic scars can be addressed with corticosteroid injection. It should not be difficult to treat. Talk to your dermatologist.
