What type of scarring and what are my optios

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.)

What type of scarring and what are my optios

Postby jordan777 » Sat Nov 20, 2010 8:44 pm

Hello Doctor Lam

I have had cystic acne, but with accutane it has gone. Now i am left with scarring. What type of scarring do i have. What are my treatment options? What bothers me most is what i put in the square box.

Best Regards,

Jordan

sorry, i totally missed your message. i tend to respond more quickly. what you have are small icepick scars. they would be best helped with the CROSS treatment. in the box area there are some deeper ones that may be helped with silicone. i could possibly do both at the same time depending on how close the two areas would be when i see you. hope that helps. if you are interested in having me do that please call 972-312-8188 or 888-866-3388. it would probably take 2 to 3 trips to get adequate improvement (which is not perfect but better).
best,
sml
