I had this nose pierced when was very young but now this more than 17 years I haven’t wore anything but my marks are still there. It’s looks very ugly as it’s still deep hole and easily visible which I can’t conceal with even cosmetics. Can you suggest anything?

Answer: Start with TCA CROSS, add laser if needed. Many of these piercings, especially if not too wide or through-and-through, will respond well to a series of treatments with the TCA CROSS technique. You can follow this up with some fractional ablative or non-ablative laser or radiofrequency microneedling to finesse the end results. Best wishes, Shobhan.

Answer: Scar treatment Thank you for your question and photographs. It's difficult to evaluate and assess your skin through photos, but from what I can see, it looks like you have atrophic (indentation) scarring. Treatment options that injure the skin with subsequent collagen formation such as fractionated laser, dermaroller, resurfacing lasers, etc., may help your condition. Fillers are a good option, specifically Bellafill®, a permanent filler. Bellafil® is FDA approved in treating acne scars. The right modality for you depends on your skin type, expectations, patience, downtime, and cost. I highly recommend you consult with a board certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon to have your skin evaluated and to discuss treatment options that best suit your needs. Take care and good luck.
