Hi!
Your boxcar and rolling acne scars can be improved and smoothened to a significant extent - improvement by a few grades on the acne severity score or up to 80% improvement.
I use a combination of different types of acne scar treatments to target acne scars thoroughly. The types of treatments depend on your scar type, skin type, budget and ability to handle down-time (recovery time).
The best treatments for box car and rolling acne scars are:
1. Subcision with collagen stimulating fillers - To release tethered (held down) scars and to stimulate collagen production
2. Fractional Laser resurfacing (eg CO2/Erbium fractional lasers like Edge Fractional CO2 lasers)
3. RF micro-needling (eg Infini, Intracel)
Several treatment sessions are required (3-5 sessions) and I use a combination of acne scar treatments in each session to give faster results.
Each of these treatments works synergistically.
I suggest that you have a face to face consult with a doctor who focuses on acne scars treatment for an accurate treatment plan.

Hope this helps!
Warmest regards,
Dr Justin Boey
