Depending on the lighting, my acne scars can seem either superficial or severe, and I can't tell! When I stretch my skin, they mostly disappear (maybe by 85-90%). I also can't tell what type of acne scars these are - I always assumed rolling, but could some of them be boxcars? How much improvement might I be able to see? Do I need subcision? Could I potentially go without it?
