RESURFACING PROCEDURES
FILLERS & VOLUME RESTORATION
SURGICAL OPTIONS
OTHER ADVANCED TECHNOLOGIES
TOPICAL AND INJECTABLE TREATMENTS
would you recommend for my scars
Target: Superficial to moderately deep scars (like rolling and boxcar scars)
- Laser Resurfacing
- Ablative: CO₂, Er:YAG (removes top skin layers)
- Non-ablative: Fraxel (stimulates collagen without removing layers)
- Chemical Peels
- Medium to deep peels: TCA (Trichloroacetic Acid), Phenol
- Cross technique (TCA CROSS): Spot application for ice-pick scars
- Dermabrasion
- Mechanical sanding of skin (more aggressive than microdermabrasion)
- Microdermabrasion
- Mild mechanical exfoliation (best for surface texture, not deep scars)
- Microneedling (Collagen Induction Therapy)
- Stimulates collagen by making micro-injuries
- Often combined with PRP (platelet-rich plasma)
Target: Atrophic/indented scars (rolling, boxcar)
- Dermal Fillers
- Temporary: Hyaluronic acid (e.g., Juvederm, Restylane)
- Long-lasting: Bellafill (PMMA), Sculptra (poly-L-lactic acid)
- Autologous Fat Transfer
- Fat taken from your body is injected under scars
Target: Deep or stubborn scars
- Subcision
- Needle or cannula breaks the fibrous bands under a scar
- Punch Excision
- Used for deep boxcar/ice-pick scars — scar is cut out and stitched
- Punch Elevation
- Scarred base is lifted to skin level and sutured
- Skin Grafting
- Often used after punch excision; fills deep scar holes
Often combined with above methods for enhanced results
- Radiofrequency Microneedling
- Combines microneedling with heat to stimulate deeper collagen (e.g., Morpheus8, Secret RF)
- Plasma Skin Resurfacing
- Non-laser energy treatment that resurfaces skin
- High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound (HIFU)
- Tightens skin and promotes collagen (less common for scars)
- LED Therapy (e.g., Red or Blue Light)
- Mildly improves skin healing and inflammation (supportive, not primary)
Used with or before procedures
- Steroid Injections
- For raised (hypertrophic or keloid) acne scars
- 5-FU or Bleomycin Injections
- For stubborn keloid scars
- Topical Retinoids (Tretinoin, Adapalene)
- Improves texture and boosts cell turnover
- Silicone Gel/Sheets
- For flattening raised scars
Im not bro im so sorry
Better if you visit a derm. My basic routine for acne is with spf50, moisturiser from la roche posay and tret from skinorac
You know that he can go on GPT by himself right?

For the scars get EKLIEF Cream it's a pump just take one pump a day and then alternative with glycolic acid 6% cream. Use these two on alternative days. But i would like you to ask ur derma about these first.
about a tca peel?
i have one but the results will take a while and idk what length to use
That too works but the eklief cream is more effective ig
The thing is i never tried a peel so idk whether it be more effective than the cream so why don't you try it yourself?
Peels arent that effective from my personal experience. I done BioRePeel which is like a 35% TCA Peel and it made no difference. It only dried and damaged my skin. Wouldnt recommend.
man i just got a 13% tca peel may aswell use it tbh did u try layering the peel or?
Yea there were multiple layers of the peel applied to my skin. Bro if im being completely honest I dont think a 13% TCA peel is going to work( still aswell to try it though). Like I said I did a 35% TCA peel and it did basically nothing except give me down time. Although I havent tried it yet by the sounds of it dermabrasion sounds like the only effective thing for Scarring. Essentially it removes the layers of skin by sanding it. But idk.
However looking at your skin idk if its just the camera or lighting but it doesnt look bad at all. Mines is significantly worse than yours so maybe a 13% TCA peel will be helpful for you. Good luck tho bro and hopefully you get the results you want.
