Asked By:harrison2448 in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada

Hello, I have a few chicken pox scars and atrophic scarring from over the years. I also have redness left over from a chemical peel gone wrong about 6 months ago. Would anyone have any advice on what to do about these issues? So far I’ve tried IPL, TCA cross, excel v and currently am following an anti redness routine with alumier products. Any advice or help would be appreciated.
