Nose Scar; please help! Will continued CO2 treatments help? (Photo)

May 15, 2016
Asked By:bkalleva in Denver, CO

Please help. I am so distraught over this. Had an atrophic scar on my nose from sebaceous acne. Had a top plastic surgeon do a scar revision. He says he has never seen anyone's skin heal like mine. He performed CO2 (CO2RE) last Thursday and I see no improvement. Will continued CO2 treatments help? Should I ask about subcision? Sorry, I posted this question before and it cut the second half of it off.
