Can restylane be used to fill in acne scars? I don't want to take the time to try lasers, i'm looking for a quick fix!
Answer: Restylane for acne scars
Restylane can be an excellent filler for acne scars. Your doctor can inject saline to test whether the indentations are tethered down and will or will not rise up . You can also inject saline prior to try to loosen them up with saline and a needle. I have had excellent results with this. I do think that laser is the ultimate best but also feel that sometimes raising the scars up prior to the laser improves your laser results.

Answer: Restylane for Depressed Acne Scars
Hi Caligirl. Restylane can be an option for acne scars, but really only in cases where the base or diameter of the acne scars is large, say greater than 1/4". When you have a larger indentation, it's easier to lift the whole area with dermal fillers like Restylane than when you have a few pinpoint scars. It does not work with smaller scars.
To get an idea if you are a candidate, check the photo at the link below. This is a picture of an acne scar patient we treated with Restylane.

Answer: It can be helpful but don't ask for perfection
Hey Caligirl,
Restylane can do a very nice job with acne scars though some cases may be tougher than others. Don't expect perfection but coupling it with treatments like CO2 therapy can make it even more effective. Possibly a peel.
Best of luck
