Jason Emer, MD · Answer

You need a cosmetic dermatologist who specializes in acne scarring/pigmentation and does a combination of treatments including: surgery, subcision, or TCA cross for deep or pitted "ice pick" scars; fillers like Bellafill or Sculptra or Radiesse for broad "boxcar" or "rolling" scars; Eclipse Micropen for all types of scars and improvement in texture and tone; lasers such as co2 laser resurfacing or Fraxel/Clear+Brilliant or radiofrequency such as Venus Viva to improve the scars and give long term collagen production. There are many options but you want someone who can customize a regimen for your short and long term goals based on your individual situation.  TCA cross and laser resurfacing can be done at the same time.  Best, Dr. Emer.

TCA CROSS is ideal for DEEP scars, for example ice pick scars, however it can be used on narrow box car scars. Generally after 3 TCA CROSS treatments, you would only require one fully ablative laser. This is not the absolute rule, as it also depends on your downtime, and skin type. BestDr Davin Lim Laser and aesthetic dermatologistBrisbane, Australia.
