Hello; I'm suffering from acnes about 10 years, going to doctor monthly for 4 years, having daily medicines and creams, but nothing working, when I stop using medicines acnes will come back, having medicines & still acnes appearing daily strongly. I have a very ugly skin with dark spots, scars, big holes and acnes. My question is can I try micro-needling treatment for scars and holes while there still is acne n pimples in my face or shall I wait until acnes go away n then go for micro-needling?
