Just getting frustrated with marks on my face need help pls

Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question.Generally speaking, scars can be improved with a combination of surgery and/or lasers and microneedling with PRP. Below is a more detailed reference list of the treatments available. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with a scarring expert to determine which is best for your specific case. Best, Dr. Emer   1. Vascular lasers (Yellow laser, V-Beam, Excel V) 2. Fractional lasers (Fraxel, Erbium, CO2) 3. Microneedling/PRP 4. Silicone-based scar gels with growth factors 5. Excision / revision surgery   See an expert to develop a treatment plan that works for you. Best, Dr. Emer

Raffy Karamanoukian, MD, FACS · Answer

The treatment of scars on the face and body follows a protocol-based approach in our office. We start by characterizing the scars in terms of redness, atrophy, hypertrophy, size, volumetric biometrics, and color hyperpigmentation and then devise a customized protocol for you. 
Our Hidef scar protocol uses micro fractional and fractional RF, fractional laser, sublative RF, vbeam therapy, injection based IIT, and scar modulation. Scars that exhibit growth should begin treatment with Plato's Scar Serum twice daily followed by Melarase AM and Melarase PM for dark and discolored scars. 
Best,
