Is Genius RF spot treatment ideal for a few ice pick scars on my nose? (photos)

February 11, 2023
Asked By:drillbits in Kirkland, WA

I have 6 ice pick acne scars on my nose. I don’t have them anywhere else on my face. I had a consultation and the Genius RF micro needling was recommended, but they don’t do spot treatments. I do not want to treat my whole face. They did not offer any other options. Is it possible to get Genius spot treatment, or are there other options I should consider? Scars are ~15 years old, I’m 33F East Asian. Prone to hyperpigmentation but would rather have freckles there than holes.
