I'm 48. I've been battling scars for over 10 years. Scars from herpes and cysts. Acne. Nothing helped. I managed to improve some scars. I've tried all possible methods. Except one - deep ablative CO2 resurfacing. And even then, doctors promise a maximum of 30-50% improvement depending on the scar. Before doing laser, subcision is needed. To cut the tissue under the scar. 1-3 times. To lift the bottom of the pits. Some do it with filler, some without. I saw no difference. After which many procedures are done directly on the scars - erbium laser around the edges and CO2 superficial ablation directly - this is done together. After which deep CO2 ablation. I did the edges 3 times and it smoothed the scar relief, the edges spread and the transition to the middle is smooth. It's the edges that cast a shadow and make the scar so visible. I'll repeat the edges again. I can't decide on deep ablation. Because the side effects (red skin for up to a year, the epidermis is removed... rehabilitation is very long... I'm thinking about zonal grinding., to do the forehead separately, the cheeks separately... but this grinding is done under general anaesthesia, otherwise you won't stand it... that's how it is... A lot of time, money, tough rehabilitations.. the result is minimal.. and my scars are of medium severity local location, only 3 really deep. After inflammation, the body heals the lesion without thinking about the appearance, collagen fibres overlap inside. The task is to break them and heal anew to improve the appearance of the scar. But you can't remove it - because an atrophic scar is minus tissue.. you can try to excise, but I didn't see good results because you are changing one scar pit for another scar line.., this can work on individual scars no more than 3 mm in diameter. Here they wrote about collagen injections. Like any filler, this is a temporary solution. At first, it seems to improve. After a year, everything returns to the starting point after any filler, including fat. The problem of scars is the most complex in dermatocosmetology and there are practically no specialists who deal with it.
