Collagen over-growth?

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.)

Collagen over-growth?

Postby superbbrr » Thu Dec 22, 2011 12:11 am

Hi Dr. Lam,

Do you know what type of condition I have? It seems as if the collagen in my cheeks is over-growing. I don't have a smooth flat face, but rather these hypertrophic bumps which connect to form squiggly lines.

I used to have acne in my teens and early 20s, but now I have this squiggly condition. :cry:

this is something i don't know the answer to except to say enlarged pores. i really don't have a good solution for you. i am sorry. maybe ask a dermatologist. wish i had something concrete and effective but i don't.
best,
