Im left with pitted scars which are espacially visible when smiling or moving the face. I want to find a way to regain my full cheeks without indentations (or as minimal as possible). Still have active acne but I plan to get to the scar treatment as soon as my skin clears. Im thankful for any tips, wether microneedling will help me effectively, because my scars seem tethered.

Answer: Subcision For Elevating & Smoothing Rolling Scars: Microneedling For Superficial Blending Color/Texture Subcision, which I have been performing since 1995, is a simple, relatively inexpensive procedure for elevating and smoothing all kinds of depressed scars, particularly the rolling scars seen in the photos. It has a several decades long proven record of safety and efficacy and engenders little to no significant downtime. I have been performing microneedling for well over twenty years and do not find it particularly useful as a monotherapy for acne scars. However, it can be especially useful as a final "polishing" step following elevating the depression. Professionally performed manual Dermastamp microneedling (no need for the extra expense and risks of added RF) can be used to better blend in both color and texture the treated area with the surrounding normal tissue. You would be wise to consult with an experienced, board certified cosmetic dermatologist who can help to clear up your current outbreak and subsequently initiate appropriate scar therapies. Best of luck.

Answer: Microneedling for Pitted Scars Hello, yes micro needling for this type of scar tissue can be a great option. Typically 3-6 treatments would be needed to see improvement of the dermal tissue. These can be done one month apart with seeing improvement after each session. Microneedling works to remodel tissue and also improve skin texture and tone.
