Treatment for Rolling Scars

Thank you for your question. You will require a consultation and evaluation to investigate the type of acne scarring and your skin type. The eMatrix laser can help smoothen your texture as there are very few lasers to help your skin type without pigment irregularity. Also, subcision to release the rolling scars can help improve the skin texture. Likely a combination of treatments will be needed. For best and safest results, be sure to consult with a Board Certified Dermatologist... more

Hello

In our practice we like to tell our patients that you have a few different options. Without and exam or pictures it’s very hard to give you adequate advice. We recommend DOT laser, Profractional laser or a series of VI Peels. That would have to be determined after an exam. You should see a PS to give you accurate advice.

Treatment of acne scars in dark skin types

I love using a non-ablative fractional laser to treat acne scarring in darker skin types. These non-ablative devices carry a lower risk for pigmentary problems following treatment, than do their ablative counterparts. That said, three to six treatments are often required to achieve the desired result. Just know that you have options, and that improvement in the scarring is DEFINITELY possible.
