Got this scar on the tip of my nose almost 2 years ago, been reading about micro needling but mostly have only seen results on acne scars. Just wanted to get some opinions to see if micro needling would help with the appearance
Answer: Combined approach best for scaring. Subcsion, micro needling and PRP as well as laser resurfacing can improve this scar. As it is depressed on an area that is cosmetically sensitive, you will require multiple treatments over months, however improvement can be made. All the best, Dr Davin Lim

Answer: Microneedling, Fillers, PRP Appreciate the photo, as this helps. Microneedling will help soften the scar, but alone will not be enough for the deep retraction. For this I would recommend a filler. Bellafil works great, as it lasts years to even semi-permanent. See results for acne scars. Make sure to see an experienced injector since the tip of the nose has vascularity that can make it risky. Best of luck, Dr. Powell
