Hypertrophic Nose Scars (interested in flap surgery) - will any lasers help? (Photos)

January 22, 2025
Asked By:hypertrophic in Los Angeles, California

I'm seeking help for hypertrophic/papular acne scars on my nose. This issue has persisted for 11 years, causing insecurity and depression. I've tried: • 2 CO2 + mixto laser treatments • 1 hyfrecation treatment (caused additional scarring) • 5 months of Accutane (and currently still on it for the next 7 months) I'm considering flap surgery. Even though it is drastic, I do not believe any sort of laser treatments work. If you know of any lasers that do help, let me know.
