I am a Permanent Makeup Artist & cosmetic tattooist in Florida, and I must say, I have awesome results with ice pick scars with a technique known as Dry Tattooing.Dry Tattooing is just as it sounds, no pigments, just the machine itself and a small needle configuration. Once performed, your body recognizes the trauma as a wound and sends collagen and new blood supply to the area. The new collagen actually produces a "filling in" effect, and lessens the depth of the scar. Lasers cannot pinpoint these small scars in quite the same manner, so much of my work is performed in tandem with laser treatments. this technique when performed apart from lasers can be far less expensive with better targeted results than lasers and revision surgery. Several sessions may be required to produce enough collagen to completely make the ice pick scar unnoticeable . I also use this technique on other types of scars and also for wrinkles and brown spots. It's pain free, but there is a small amount of unsightliness that can be covered with makeup. It looks like small dark spots or red freckles in every place that there is a scar. These fade in 2-3 days and the collagen production will take place immediately although 3-4 months is needed for best results. Treatments may be repeated 6-8
weeks apart.

Thank you so much for the great tip on the product.  I may have to try this myself for the scar on my neck.  

Nice to know there is something that works well and does what it claims.
