Hi. posted a question 2 months ago. Tried to do update but can't figure it out. I have perioral smoker lines and small 7 month atrophic dog bite scar. Did Botox and Restylane Silk. I asked not to inject scar because wasn't sure it was 100% healed but they did it and the surrounding wrinkles. 2 months later I see no difference in the appearance of my smoker lines and I think my dog bite actually looks worse, its puffed on the edges and longer. Maybe I need a more aggressive approach. I don't like the filler.

Answer: Microneedling for scars Hello, Great question and thank you for sharing your picture. A combination of treatments would be best for your concerns including microneedling and filler. I would recommend a series of microneedling (3-4) treatments with PRP and possibly maintenance treatments. Also, the use of low dose retinol at home every other night to help with skin texture and appearance. For a more aggressive treatment, recommend C02 treatment with a downtime of 7-1o days. I would recommend a full consultation to setup a treatment plan for you. Best of Luck

Answer: Perioral Wrinkles and Scarring Thank you for your question and photos. A combination of microneedling (up to 3-4 treatments at first) with PRP or growth factor can help to soften those lines without adding actual volume. If there is still a bit of atrophy, a superficial filler like Volbella can be used to help further soften the more persistent wrinkles/scars. Even more aggressive would be a laser treatment, like Halo, to help improve perioral lines and scarring without use of injectables. Hope this helps!
