Subcision and fillers on same day for acne scars

Subcision followed by a filler is normally done at the same time when treating acne scars. There is no advantage, of which I'm aware, of doing them at different times.

There is a few options for acne scars. You can get profractional laser with micro laser peel that in it self will get rid of a lot of your scars but not 100%. If you want 100% you can do a mini facelift that would be stretching the skin and getting rid of the deeper scars.Good luck.
