Should I seek treatment immediately for my indented scar or wait it out? Microneedling will not help this scar, and rolling is never recommended for the face. You will need subcision to break the tethering, perhaps with filler. You may need 3 treatments of this. | In forum Acne Scars | 8 years ago |

Open pores or Acne Scars? You also appear to have shallow but wide boxcars as well. None of your scars are severe, they're just widespread. Don't worry though!! At home I would recommend getting some TCA (ranging from 70-10... | In forum Acne Scars | 8 years ago |
Just had a consultation for subcision Yes it was free. I suggest that you call around at offices and see if they offer it. I feel like a lot of places do subcision, but they don't really advertise it because it isn't as "cool" or "trendy"... | In forum Acne Scars | 8 years ago |
Just had a consultation for subcision I would not go to this doctor. He obviously doesn't care much. Also, if he didn't even look at your scars in angled lighting, he is bound to miss so many spots during an actual procedure. To give you... | In forum Acne Scars | 8 years ago |
