Bad skin acne scarring. Can someone recommend what will work? (Photo)

Moonface_cratersAug 29, 2023
Hi, I have been to 4 clinics in London, Harley Street and elsewhere and have received conflicting advice often slating the other treatments. I didn't really feel comfortable with any of them as I felt they just wanted to sell their products. None of these were doctors or dermatologists but they called themselves skin specialists. The conflicting advice has left me super confused and I just want a fix for my skin. Can someone recommend what will work :(

Not sure how long it has been since your procedures. But my best advice is to wait longer if it has not been at least 6-12 months. The pink lip has an amazing ability to regenerate and heal without scar and most often, early concerns go away with time without any intervention. Good luck! Dallas...
