Hi , Thanks for sharing your question with pictures. Cystic acne will cause tissue damage. You can try fractional laser and derma roller to soften the scar. Fat transfer will help you to address volume loss. Kindly meet a board certified plastic/ cosmetic surgeon . Best of luck.
Thank you for your question. Yes cystic acne can leave what are called atrophic scars, which result in some volume loss, hence the depressions under the skin.There are a range of ways of treating these from laser and Tixel, to a combination of microneedling, PRP, subcision and CROSS (a very localised application of a strong peel solution). As there are different types of scar we need different ways of treating them for best results.Best wishes.
It is very important that anything you put on the skin after micro-needling has been specifically tested and proven to be safe to use after this procedure. Micro-needling creates thousands of micro-channels in the skin which enhance penetration of topical serums and medications, drama...
I agree with other Specialists regarding LONG needle derma rollers- they can cause trauma, hence why we recommend .25 to .5 max. Collagen supplements will do no harm, but no scientific evidence they will help. Stay SAFE, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Rollers more than 1 mm can cause damage, stick to a 0.25 mm roller and look after your skin 3-4 times a day. With 0.25, you will heal in 2-4 days. Stay SAFE. Dr Davin Lim. BRISBANE, Australia.
