Another possible treatment......

This section of the forum is dedicated to discussions on managing, treating, and correcting acne scarring. (Of note, Dr. Lam is focused principally on acne scarring rather than on managing the ongoing condition of acne, which a dermatologist would be better equipped to address.)

Another possible treatment......

Postby karlacarlock » Tue May 18, 2010 9:37 pm

Hi,
Thanks for answering my other question regarding silicone......I have an appointment with you in June and I can't wait, but I was wondering what if I'm not a candidate for silicone or tca, what other options would I have if any?

unfortunately, not many. i can do restylane but that is temporary. most lasers do very little for acne scarring. fortunately most people either fit into silicone and/or tca cross or really have so little scarring they would not benefit from either. i cannot think of a type of acne scarring that does not fit into either category unless i think the person really does not need it. hope that is clear.
best,
sml
