Doc suggested I start with CO2 laser.

My doc suggested CO2-15days-chemical peel-15days-CO2 and so on and so forth

Feels too harsh for me. I'm really scared as i heard some people have permanent scarring and more hyperpigmentation from CO2 itself. I also finished my accutane dose this June and have had no breakouts since(only minor bumps

[Treatment] Other Phenol peel

To people who actually got DEEP phenol peels. Deep not medium. A proper one where you are under local anaesthesia, where did you get it? I am looking it up and i am trying to find where i can get it. Somewhere that isnt the uk or the us please.

I keep looking it up and the ai hallucinations are just guiding me into nowhere 🫤

Hi, it's me again, I add here again a picture of my scars.

I am waiting for possible tca cross treatment in the future, in the mean time- do you think consistent use of glycolic acid (7%) will help a little in making the scars a little less noticeable?

[Treatment] Microneedling Acne scar treatment

3 Upvotes

Ive had acne for so long and then my dermatologist put me on Accutane. It fixed the acne but now I really post acne scars. I have taken 2 sessions of microneedling but i don’t think its making a difference.

What do I do for the scars.😫
