Did Dr. Greg Morganroth show you before and afters of these two different approaches on trauma scars? Scar revision has the potential to result in a line scar but could also result in similar scarring...

None of those things you have tried will do a thing for scars, except for needling. Lotions and topical and such are useful in helping your skin heal though if you are receiving treatments and for hyp...

Some scars are difficult to identify, I think scars on the forehead are especially difficult because everything is shallower and it seems to be less common. I prefer the stamps to rollers as well, but...

Looks like boxcar and icepick scars. Do you only have scars on your forehead and temples? No reason to wait for a serum or topical to start needling, just add that to your next treatment if you find ...

Too many things on that list for me to offer much help. I would think you should first address the issues that bother you the most. You've tried laser a number of times, if you are worried about it th...

I would call your dermatologist to see which fillers they prefer and then make another post here about those specific fillers. Subcision can definitely be done on the temples, some of the wider scars ...

Subcision alone can be effective, but a lot of people recommend combining it with either suction or filler for better results. Subcision + filler and TCA cross can all be performed in a single treatme...

I agree, you a great candidate for subcision. The recovery for subcision is short enough, especially if you do not bruise easily. You might be able to get away with having it performed on Friday and r...

These pictures are not very helpful, the pics in your other thread are better. TCA cross and microneedling would be the two treatments I look into. If you have to ask me how to perform these treatment...

Interested in hearing what the doctor says about the treatment, the info from her leaves out a lot of the specifics. The acid would be neutralized long before the needling; she says he applied numbing...

A scar wouldn't just appear from acne you had 7 years ago. Are you sure the scars were not there the whole time and have just become more noticeable?

I have half written a bunch of messages to you and always end up deleting them. Why? Because I feel like all you do is seek out negativity in everything and in every post. Is how you received your sc...

Probably best not to disturb the scars that are treated with TCA, you don't want to pull or brush off any of the resulting scabs. Really will depend on how much the two treatments overlap the same are...

Neither will do much for ice pick scars. Possibly TCA cross, but its difficult to say with the limited info you provided. Post some clear pictures of your scars if you can.

Having some topics pinned would be very helpful, great idea.

If your only concern is treating a single scar, dermarolling would not be necessary. Single needling or dermastamping would be cheaper and easier. That being said, I wouldn't be in a rush to treat it ...

You can use the search function to look for punch excision results, just make sure to educate yourself on the process and expected outcomes. I think excision is frequently followed by laser treatments...

This is your worse side? Based on what I can see in the picture, punch excision wouldn't have been a treatment I would have recommended for you. Pictures can be deceiving though, so it can be difficul...

There is a forum specifically for hyperpigmentation, might be some very knowledgeable people there. I don't have any experience treating hyperpigmentation, but from what I've read there are a few opti...

Does anyone have any opinions or experiences with these treatments? I've read everything I can find about each treatment, trying to determine which is the most beneficial. I have mostly ruled out subc...

How much improvement have you had from these treatments? I can't really see enough active acne for you to take accutane, have you had acne for years that you have not been able to treat effectively wi...

8 hours ago, il90 said: The problem is people with scarring are usually not very happy people, and so they think it is the scarring that makes people leave. But it isn't. It has nothing to do w...

Some people experience slower healing while taking accutane, so any sort of treatment that damages the skin is best left until 6-12 months after accutane. It is also a bad idea to needle if you have a...

Post a pictures of your scars if you can. Punch excision can be a great improvement to some scars if the surgeon is very skilled, but it is one of the riskier treatments.
