Scars from acne on chin were elevated and much less noticeable now that dr Mamalak worked on them. Overall much improment and I'm very happy with results! Acne in General has greatly improved with gentle washing and arcana gel . These are the best dermatologists in austin for any skin problem. Also they are very experienced and kind doctors that take your problems seriously and communicate with you about every option my self esteem is greatly improved .

Ok so you didn't say what kind of acne scar treatment you had or anything about it, just promoted a specific doctor. These reviews come across as fake.
Sorry, just saw it was in the title. Can you give more information about the Juvederm?
Of course!! Juvederm seems to go deeper and last longer for results that last about 6 months. The numbing cream goes on for about 20 minutes then the tiny needle injection into deep rolling scars. Doesn't hurt too much. Results are good and greatly improve appearance. The subcission hurt a little more and had 3 days of down time. With just the juvederm down time is maybe 1 night of ice for swelling.
My concern with fillers in scars is that scar tissue tends to obstruct the filler and push it out around the scar. Did you have issues with that?
Subcission to release scars is done first then filler to add base to new collagen. No I didn't have a bad effect from filler.
What type of acne scarring did you have? 
It was deep rolling scars from cysts. One had puckered to the point that I felt like I had a hole in my face. It has been almost a year now and I still love the results. In fact it gets better over time as new collagen forms.

Great to hear, happy for you!
