Can chemical peels help with my follicular macular atrophy scarring? (Photos)

Our treatments use combination therapy to improve the epidermis and dermis. We see atrophic and hypertrophic scars, as well as scars that have hypo and hyperpigmentation. 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 discuss the best treatment options for your type of skin. .

Thank you for your question,Chemical peels are a very effective acne scar treatment to minimize the appearance of acne scars, including deep ice-pick scars or boxcar scars. The right treatment option will depend on the type of scarring you have. Other treatment options may include laser scar revision, IPL laser treatments, and LED light therapy. You should always consult with a board certified doctor to determine the most appropriate treatment program.
