A patient asked 3 years ago
Hello. I am a 22 year old male. I had bad acne 11 months ago which caused scars under the jawline. Is there any way to improve the appearance? If yes will the improvement be anything significant? Also I lost quite a bit of weight a few years ago which resulted in the skin under my neck being loose. Can the scars be improved even if the skin is somewhat loose? Or could the scars possibly be bumps from shaving?

Treatment for Acne Scar

  Hi and thank you for your question! Based on your picture, you can be a good candidate for treatment of scars using BellaFill injection which is used to smooth out individual scars. Additionally, you can see some overall improvement of skin texture with a series of Fractional CO2 laser treatment. I hope it helps and good luck!
