Scars under eyes left after microneedling - how can I correct it? (photos)

December 1, 2022
Asked By:zkhandwala in Orlando, Florida

I had microneedling done at a med spa here in Orlando. After the technician treated my cheeks (the reason for my visit, for old acne scarring), she decided to spot-treat two specific areas under my eyes. Each area was a line about an inch long. The two lines were red and bloody after treatment, and the next morning they were indented and very dark. Three months post-procedure, I have scars in these spots. Please advise re: what may have happened, and what correction might be possible.
