I am new to acne.org and joined after hearing Dr. Lim recommend the site. I have what I think are rolling scars on one cheek from several years of hormonal cystic acne. My acne has been much better and thankfully nothing compared to what it was. So now I am ready to tackle these scars!

Starting treatment of acne scaring Updated
I never had any acne until I was an adult. It is quite depressing getting large cyst in your adult years (as well as being a teenager) as there seem to be a never ending story of it. However, I´m almost acne free now, and I´m starting repairs on my modestly scared skin.

Hollie Updated
I have had cystic acne for about 3 years now and recently switched to the Paleo diet in the beginning of this year. It has helped a lot with my acne but now I am left with tons of rolling scars on my cheeks. I have uploaded all the pictures I have so far. A couple of the pictures are from the day.thumb.jpg.402e641882947ece1b00f2a6e2a8079d.jpg)
