What is the best method to get rid of depressed scars? (photo)

Doctor's Answer

From your photos, you appear to have 2 depressed scars on the cheek. I would suggest two options:

1. Fractional CO2 laser to stimulate new collagen formation. 4-5 monthly sessions may be needed for 50-70% improvement.

2. Scar revision by cutting out the existing deep scars and lasering the new more superficial scars. Most patients can achieve good results after a 3-6 months.

Hope this helps!

Warmest regards

Dr Stephanie Ho, Dermatologist
