Have you gotten subcision or are you just straight up suctioning on your scars? If you're bruised up I would give it a rest for a bit and just let it recover.

So I've been using a dermaroller with no topicals (Besides a moisturizer afterwards} for about 6-8 weeks now. The results have been pretty minimal, it's noticeably lightened up hyper-pigmentation and ...

The red marks could be PIE (Post-Inflammatory erythema) Instead of PIH. Hyper-pigmentation tends to be a darker color like brown, purple, or black, while PIE is caused by the body sending extra blood ...

Will require some pictures to be able to tell you, but generally you can improve most types of scarring. You won't be able to fully get rid of them (not right now anyways) but you can certainly make t...

First of all you can relax, your skin looks fine. I actually don't see any scarring (if its there it's very minimal), it looks like maybe you have clogged pores though. So look into something like an ...

smart to go slow, start with a 1.0...definitely, then once you know what you are doing move up I use a dermastamp as my rolling scars are concentrated I've heard mixed reviews about rolling after fi...

I have various scarring on one of my cheeks and was looking into dermarolling, I have some small ice picks and a depressed scar on the cheek. I also have a pretty deep boxcar scar but i'm not expectin...

You'd want to leave it alone as scabbing up is part of the healing process and trying to remove it can disrupt that it. Yeah it doesn't look great but it's nearly done healing at that point.

Goodluck with your treatments, I see a definite improvement from just your first one.

I would try to tell your dermatologist it's an emergency because I think this definitely needs urgent care. I would say something like a cortisone shot would help but I dont know much about what is go...

If these red spots did come from active acne then yes I would assume its just hyperpigmentation. I would just continue using your mandelic acid peels, if you feel the peel has begun to lose its effect...

I'd second looking into subcision and a filler, since this is the only scar there would be minimal risk if any really. I have a similar scar on my cheek and i'm currently looking into subcision as wel...

It looks mainly like hyper pigmentation, there might be some scarring there but its hard to tell. But no those colored marks are not permanent, try looking into AHA to help them fade or maybe some lig...

I really can't tell what you're referencing. I see what maybe looks like a boxcar scar and i'm just assuming that's what you mean.For Starters I would get your active acne under control first, maybe l...

Yeah your scars don't look bad at all, look into AHA for the redness.

Thank you for your input, it definitely seems like the best procedure but finding someone who actually does it is a pain. Also wondering if anyone has heard of dermarolling? Would rolling actually be ...

So I have decided that subcision would probably be best for the depressed scar, fortunately its the only scar that really bothers me. I revived this thread hoping some other people who have gotten sub...

I get blind pimples pretty often, they usually just stay as a red bump for a few days and then go down and disappear. Which I suppose is preferable to developing a huge head. Do you use any topicals?

Alright will try using Tea tree oil on it every night and see how that goes, will report back later. Thanks

Well assuming its a deeply clogged pore what should I use on it? BP? Tea Tree Oil? Salicylic Acid? any suggestions would be great

Yeah I'd be alright with it filling up with collagen but things are never that easy lol. Anyway here's the scar in question, like I said there's not much to see right now as it just started filling up...

I only have a few acne scars (About 3 to be exact), one of them is a decently sized icepick scar on my upper cheek. Honestly the scar itself doesn't bother me all that much, but it keeps filling up wi...

Forgot to point out that I did have a TCA peel done recently which did help the pigmentation quite a bit, the first picture is about a 2 weeks after the peel and the second one was before. I'm not sur...

Hi, so I've had these scars for awhile now from a really bad cyst I had on my cheek from about 2 years ago. I'm just wondering if anyone can suggest a course of action to help get rid of them or at le...

So i'm not really sure what to classify this as but for the past few years I have had a small spot on my cheek the seems to constantly fill with this waxy substance. I don't think its a cyst because i...
