Redness can make any indented scars look 10x worse, especially if the scars are shallow. I wouldn't judge yet until the redness is completely gone, but it is possible you have some mild scarring. Bons...

This has happened to me, too. From what I've read, needling can help to make the scar tissue more vascular and thus why it helps to soften the scar, which means it could be slightly more uncomfortable...

Sergio, are your marks red or indented?

Your skin takes roughly 4-6 weeks to heal and generate new collagen with 1mm and up. Needling more often disrupts the formation of this collagen by causing inflammation under the skin and impairing th...

Rickshaw78, have you tried the regimen..? Seven courses is quite a lot, I've only been on two and have remaining health problems from it so I cannot go on it again. It only kept my clear for three mon...

Four sessions of derma stamping isn't going to give you what you're looking for, unfortunately. I think you should continue with that every 6 weeks and use 1.5 mm to target your scars and the areas ar...

I used to have this problem. CeraVe's moisturizing lotion, which contains glycerin, hyaluronic acid as well as dimethicone, is absolutely fantastic at providing moisture and a barrier between your ski...

The vast majority of people with cystic acne will develop some kind of texture issues. It can vary from actual atrophic scarring to "dull" looking skin. I have seen people who recovered from severe ca...

Saline injections are probably the least risky procedure out there for scars right now, silicone injections on the other hand are pretty risk especially years down the road. I originally thought salin...

You may not see improvement for up to three months after both procedures, but perhaps post some progress pictures (if you're comfortable with that) and/or updates. Some people starting seeing some res...

You have most hyper pigmentation with perhaps a few very shallow scars. I would get the kit for the Regimen and use both the BP and AHA+ to help control any acne and fade the redness. Both the BP and ...

Since there's already trauma from the subcision AND the laser, it may not be a good idea to combine the suction, especially if you have scabs. I would normally suggest suctioning after subcision, but ...

Actually, some of your scars in your first picture look like they would respond to subcision + suction. Considering how inexpensive it is in comparison to laser resurfacing, I'd look into that, just m...

How long have you been needling for and any improvements? I wish you the best of luck.

Accutane isn't going to do anything for the texture of your skin/scars. May I ask how many sessions of derma stamping you've done? And how much improvement you've received since starting all of these...

So far I've been hearing good things about RF needling, but I can't say the same for fat grafting. According to a lot of reviews, it gets reabsorbed fairly quickly (within 6 months) or it can look lum...

You appear to have some atrophic scarring as well as hyper pigmentation leftover from the acne. If you are breaking out at all, even a cystic pimple here or there, Accutane is a good option. Unfortuna...

I agree with other posters, I think dermabrasion carries too many risks versus the benefits. Your skin has improved tremendously and it's best to let it heal for a while before pursuing any other trea...

Do you have a picture? Accutane is prescribed for either severe acne or acne that is leaving permanent pitted scarring.

I never had permanent success with Accutane, but most others have. The only thing consistently keeps me clear is the Regimen but it's not a cure by any means, once I stop my severe acne comes right ba...

I definitely agree with this post, mostly in regards to the holistic boards. I hear success stories with dietary changes and things that aren't necessarily backed up with evidence or have little scien...

I'm seeing mostly shallow rolling scars. I think you can get satisfactory improvement with the dermapen...laser resurfacing can also help but results can be unpredictable, some people reporting worse ...

Marcostb has a good point regarding what area was stamped. If the reaction you're talking about is isolated to one area of your face, I would not worry as much. If your entire face had this reaction i...

Do you have any history of autoimmune diseases, anemia or anything that might impair wound healing? When did you perform this on yourself? I've never heard of this happening and quite honestly I'd ge...

I second the AHA+. I occasionally get this when I overdo the BP one night or just seemingly out of nowhere, and it's definitely a combination of lack of moisture and dead skin cells. The good news is ...
