I'd settle for substantial improvement at this point

Elastagen seems like the most promising option, but who knows how effective it truly is. Even if it works, it will be years before its available and the price might be insane

I honestly don't get why people act like any human creation is bad for your health. Just because something isn't organic/"natural" doesn't mean it is bad for you. Natural products aren't the solution ...

It's tough to tell. It's either a boxcar or rolling scar

Some new research suggests Accutane can be used simultaneously with procedures, but better safe than sorry at this point. Did you use retinol, Differin, or any other topical? How about any peels? That...

It looks like a mix of boxcar and ice pick scars, but some of the scars are tough to make out. TCA cross, subcision, etc. are options to look into

You don't have any visible acne scars in that photo. You do have some acne marks and discoloration. Those are temporary. However, a TCA light or medium-high TCA peel could really help even things out....
