Botox of no use for dermal atrophy

Botox is the best for lines caused by excessive movement of underlying muscles. It can also result in lifting when injected into a muscle that pulls the face downward. It does not, however, have any benefit for the skin depressions caused by the inflammatory damage to the skin from acne. For that, you need either laser or filler. This highlights the importance of seeking the opinion and treatment of a physician trained and certified in a specialty like dermatology. You want to be treated by a doctor who understands when to use what to fix the problem.
