HI, I am in my 20's & only had a small bout with acne, for about three months. Although the acne has long cleared. I have been left with 2 rolling scars on my right cheek & 3 pitted scars on my Left cheek. I have had Total Fx on my left cheek for the pitted scars & saw only 30% improvement. I also received IPL treatments on my whole face & really saw a plumping of the skin which helped with the appearance. Will subcision work on the rolling scars? Will do TotalFx again for pitted scars. Thanks.

Answer: Recommend doing laser treatment to even out skin texture Acne scars are usually characterized within the subtypes of atrophic, hypertrophic, pigmented, or inflammatory. These subtypes of acne scars can be visually discerning in ambient light and can cause significant cosmetic concerns. Indented and atrophic scars require a combination approach to stimulate collagen and elastin, thereby smoothing contour and uneven skin. These are usually combined with lasers and depigmentation protocols to reduce inflammatory hyperpigmentation (Melarase AM and Melarase PM). Our Hidef protocols for acne scars include fillers such as Sculptra, Juvederm, Radiesse, and Restylane to improve deep acne scars; Vascular lasers to reduce inflammation and post-inflammatory redness and erythema; Fractional lasers to smooth contour and collagen; and Fractional RF to stimulate production of collagen within atrophic scars. Textural improvement and superficial scarring can be improved with Cosmelan peels, TCA Cross for ice-pick scars, deep chemical peels, and fractional CO2. We offer a personalized approach to your combination of scars and a formal evaluation with consultation is recommended to help you achieve your final results. Our plastic surgery office offers subcision and combination TCA Cross to help reduce deeply pitted scars. In terms of pigmentation and skin resonance, we recommend daily use of Melarase AM and Melarase PM coupled with Retinoid creams to achieve brilliant skin.

Answer: Deep rolling scars and subcision? The rolling atrophic scars will respond to subcision but also need filler for optimal correction. The scars are hard to see with the current pics. Other treatments include PRP, RFM which will give additional benefits.
