Asked By:caracola84

I’ve suffered with calcium deposits on my cheeks for 5 yrs now, I’ve seen 6 different dermatologist with no luck, the last one tried, did some extractions but that didn’t work that well, I’ve been on retin-a micro for 6 months, it seems to be helping the texture of my skin and the bumps looks smaller, I don’t see retin a helping to get rid of them because they are deep down, if it does it make take years, is there another treatment eg: laser? That could be beneficial.
