I am a 24 year old female with fair, sensitive skin prone to keloid scaring. I have mild to moderate acne scars as well as sun damage all throughout my t-zone. I have ice pick, box car and rolling. Some of them look like very deep pores and I really can't tell if they simply are enlarged pores. The sun damage was quite severe about 5 years ago, it was blistering and scabbing right away and the scabs scraped off too soon. The sun damage has created fine lines around my eyes and by my mouth.
Answer: These two treatments can be combined together for best results Our office has many different treatments for scars depending on the depth of atrophy or hypertrophy. Scars require a combination approach using our HI DEF protocol which uses a combination of lasers, topical scar modulation, and RF treatments to pixelate scars, improve contour, reduce hyperpigmentation, and improve the visibility of the scars so that they are no longer visible in ambient light. Everyone has a unique pattern of scarring and we employ our HIDEF technique to improve texture, color, contour, and topography. We often use a combination of treatments that begin with a careful examination to examine the micro texturing of the acne scars. Atrophic scars and indented scars can benefit from injectable fillers such as Radiesse, Sculptra, and Restylane with or without subcision to remove tethered scars and atrophic depression. Hyper-redness in scars can be improved with V beam laser, Excel V, BBL, IPL, and Venus RF to improve the redness and reduce the visibility of deep scars. Fractional Thulium laser and clear & brilliant can also reduce the inflammation and redness of the scar when combined with topical therapy. Fractional lasers such as Fraxel, erbium, and CO2 laser can be combined with radio frequency and also fractional RF to improve textual issues and microtopography. Subcision and TCA cross are also used for deep ice pick scars and narrow valley scars in order to improve the micro texture. Above all, our combination approach with our clinical nurses and board-certified plastic surgeons can improve the quality of your skin by using at home Melarase creams combined with PRP treatments in our office to improve your skin quality and tone. I recommend getting a formal evaluation with an experienced team of experts in order to reduce your scarring.

Answer: Ematrix and TCA Peel I have people wait 2-3 weeks between these treatments. It would be best to do a peel first and then have the ematrix done. Although there are much better treatments out there for acne scars then the ematrix. Best, Dr. Emer.

Answer: 3-6 weeks between TCA and eMatrix I would wait 3-6 weeks, have the TCA peel first. Obviously see someone good- Certified, especially if you are using 30% TCA or stronger. See my review on eMatrix. For the best results, see an experienced practitioner who can really push the energy levels and overlaps. You may need 2-3 sessions for best results. Video in the web reference section. All the bestDr Davin LimLaser and aesthetic dermatologistBrisbane, Australia.
