I am a 36 year old male. About a year ago I decided to use a Dermaroller on the bridge of my nose in attempt to improve an old scar from a laceration sustained when I was young. I have found that the Dermaroller caused damage which resulted in a couple crease like scars that have formed. I was wondering if there is any filler that could be used for these 2 creases much the same as filling fine lines or if Pixel treatment would be of any use.
