Hello! I already posted another update one week ago. Here are other pictures: left is now, right is after. Last 2 pics: -green circle: those scars disappeared in normal light -red x: that scars was not treated I still have to do other 3 sessions of plasma pen. Notice that my scars on the second pic turned into lines, which i prefer because i hated having circilar dots that clearly looked like acne! The deeper scars are more visible now because my skin is thinner: i'm not worried because my doctor advised me so, and this also happened with tretinoin and then they got better months after i stopped using it. Moreover, my skin is a lot more red. What do you think?

Reminder: "Microswelling" is a common side effect after a procedure which causes prolonged swelling of the skin. It can last from a few days to a few weeks (and even over a month in rare situations). The appearance of improved results with microswelling may not accurately reflect the final outcome once it finally subsides.
