It seems as though subcision is a consistent effective acne scar treatment. Subcision without filler seems to yield permanent results; however, a lot of doctors say subcision with filler is only temporary. Does the combination of subcision with filler prevent the normal collagen remodeling process that subcision does alone? Thanks!

Answer: Subcision with Filler Subcision works better with filler this is no doubt. and even better with microneedling or laser treatments. It is best you get evaluated however, as all scars are different and some will not respond to subcision and require other treatments such as surgical removal or TCA cross peel method. I wish you the best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: Filler and Subcision for Acne Scar Treatment If you are having acne scar treatments with subcision, most of us would recommend that a filler be added to enhance the effects of the subcision procedure. I would recommend that you have a consultation with a board-certified dermatologist or plastic surgeon in your area and make sure that you are getting the proper treatment for your acne scars and that you know all the different options out there that exist for these scars, including the plethora of lasers and RF fractionated devices that are now available and giving great results for our patients.
