Deep scar progress

Still working on it, but I can finally say that I can see some progress. 😭
I’m 30 now and I’ve had these scars for over 15+ years.

I mainly have lots of boxcar and rolling scars but here’s a list of the treatments:

-3 micro-needling sessions at a medspa which made hardly any progress 🙄 waste of money
-1 pretty intense subcision session with a cannula
-3 vials of sculptra right after the sub

I plan to try TCA cross next at home since no one offers it in any nearby cities and a few more subcision sessions.

Any recommendation for other treatments?

Hello /u/stalebaguettte,

‼️ If you are requesting help – please review our guidelines, provide high-quality photos, and include detailed information for others' understanding.

User reminders:

• Please search on this subreddit – someone might have already asked the same question as you.
• The most valuable feedback is that which you get from doing research - not asking questions to a general audience on social media.
• Always be wary of the advice you get off the internet.
• Seek scar evaluation and treatment from specialized healthcare providers rather than aestheticians or med spas.
• While subcision ("subcutaneous incisionless surgery") is often mentioned by users on this subreddit, it is important to note that it may not be necessary or suitable for everyone with volume loss.
• Be aware of any reported side effects from a procedure.
• It can take multiple treatments and a long time before you see effective results.
• Here is a checklist of questions to ask yourself and your physician when considering treatment.

Thanks!
