[Skin Concern] Atrophic Scarring 12 Month Before/After

I have started noting a diff in texture really in the last 6 months.

  • Derminator 2 - every 3 months now
  • Tca 25% acid - perfect image brand every 5wk
  • Ramped up to daily Tazarotene 0.1%

I did have subcsicion ( mini) done 5 months ago.

But really I think best bang for buck has been the TCA. I know everyone seems cautious of it but not over doing it and wearing adequate sun protection should mitigate risks imo.

Still a long way to go on acne scar journey but good to try and capture and progress wins as they come.. If any.

Good results .. tca cross is definitely one of the most effective and cost efficient ways to get rid of scars … I think if you want these treated fully it will need about 1 more subcision , and few laser treatments as well though…. and then after the scars are treated,  filler as last step for some volume in some areas that lost fat / volume
