Hello, thank you very much for your time! I've always struggled with some scarring from picking, but since pregnancy my skin has looked especially terrible. I now have many scars and many stretched out looking pores, as well as a bumpy texture and fine lines. The worst area is the middle of my cheeks as shown in the picture. I am taking Accutane currently and plan to get cheek fillers. In addition to these, once done Accutane, can any lasers/microneedling help? Also, can this be improved?
