My scars now do not look much worse and I can see some small holes on the area where there wasnt it seems I have more acne scar, but my downtime seems ok, only take 1 week how will the scars look like under this situation corrosive fluid burn or fire burn? Can these scars be improve afterwards?

Hi acnesufferer, We ask patients to wait at least 6 months after Accutane before laser treatment because of the risk of poor healing and scarring. Hopefully you will heal well. Scars do respond to fractionated CO2 lasers. Good luck and be well. Dr. P
