A combination approach will give the most improvement for acne scars. I recommend a combination of subcision with lasers, microneedling/prp and fillers. It may take a series of treatments and may need some treatments to maintain. Don't let distance dissuade you. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an acne scarring expert. Best, Dr. Emer
Personally I don't know of any. Dr Emer is in CA and is highly recommended. Acne scar revision is a specialised field. For the best results, one should target the acne scar type with ideal treatments. The web reference below will take you to a resource. I embedded all the videos in one page to help. For example deep ice pick scars, and narrow box car scars can be treated with TCA CROSS peels, mixed scars, rolling, and atrophic scars treated with fractional devices such as Fraxel, fractional lasers, PRP and INFINI radiofrequency. Atrophic scars (depressions) can be treated with either fat grafts, or with HA dermal fillers. Tethered and anchored scars are best treated with surgery. The majority of patients will have a collection of different scar types, and hence a tailored treatment METHOD will be best. Careful examination, especially under angled lighting with scar mapping will give you an understanding of what are the best options for your scars. All the best, Dr Davin Lim.

In my opinion I prefer separate sessions. But sometimes I offer combination if acne scarring is moderate to mild. If severe I would separate the sessions..
It really depends on so many factors - I usually give a guide according to the type of subcision performed. Light technique 3-4 days, but extensive subcision with say a Nokor needle can take up to 2 weeks to settle. Your specialist can guide you as the procedure performed and the recovery rate....
Subcision uses a needle to break up the scar tissue that tethers to the skin (which causes a depression). Microneedling uses tiny needles to create micro channels (tiny holes) in the skin. These micro-injuries stimulates your skin's natural ability to heal itself and produce more collagen. For...
