I have a hole on my cheek bone from a popped whitehead many years ago. It bothers me every day and I'm extremely self-conscious about it. Is there any way something like this can be repaired? Makeup and lotions get get trapped in the hole...very unbecoming. :-(
Answer: Can a hole on your face (cheekbone) be repaired? Yes. The technique that would be best depends upon the size and depth of the hole. Options include punch excision, subcision, fillers, laser treatments or a combination of these approached. I hope this information is helpful for you.Stephen Weber MD, FACSDenver Facial Plastic Surgeon

Answer: Depending on severity, subcision, applying filler, and doing laser treatments can help reduce appearance Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis for most deep scars. The options available for acne scars depend on the character of your scars, in terms of topography and contour. We see atrophic and hypertrophic acne scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. We begin each scar evaluation with an assessment of scar quality and subtype. Our main concern is rebuilding collagen and that is why we use a HIDEF protocol that includes combination therapy. Morpheus 8, scar subcision, fibrous release, fractional laser, CO2 laser, Thulium laser, PDL Vbeam laser, and fractional resurfacing can be used in addition to TCA Cross and chemical peels to further improve skin. Patients should start Melarase AM and Melarase PM for active hyperpigmentation. Always begin with a consultation to decide whether early subcision should be started.
