The white patches could be a result of hypo-pigmentation; the lost of melanocytes (pigment cells) in the skin. I could not be certain as to what sort of treatments are available for such condition. Se...

As what FriskyCreek have mentioned, definitely get your acne under control first before proceeding to any scar revision treatments. I see some rolling scars that would benefit from subcision. Those de...

A few more rounds of subcision would probably help with lifting up any bounded scar tissues. Some of the deeper scars on your cheeks (I call it deep divots) should respond well with a heavier filler- ...

Hey JJ94, Thanks a lot for the photo! I'd say you have predominately boxcar & ice pick scars and little rolling scars. It's good that you've thought about dermarolling, there's certainly room f...
