Re: Pitted scars

Acne scars often respond well to these methods. Such scars are difficult to remove with traditional dermatological techniques that try to remove scars rapidly.
The key with pitted
Acne is to rub the Exfol Serum or stronger salicylic acids or 30% to 70% hydroxy acids in the morning into the pitted scar on a daily basis. This slowly dissolves and removes the scar tissue. In the evening use a copper peptide product. This helps stimulate a slow rebuilding of your skin. As the scar tissue is replaced with healthy skin, the skin's surface pulls itself flat like a balloon.
Some people use the beta hydroxy acid at one time of the day, such as in the morning and the copper peptide later in the evening.

Also I would recommend try Elicina Cream which has all natural ingredients and is supposed to help heal pitted scars.

A Retin-A gel might be useful for you because it removes the top layer of skin while increasing collagen which is helps raise pitted scars.
As far a surgical procedures there are two more effective procedures for pitted scars.
1. A punch technique.

2. Collagen Injections which are temporary (usually last for 3 - 6 months a per treatment).
3. Chemical Peels there are many different kinds of chemical peels but the best peel with the least amount of downside is glycolic acid 30 - 70%.
I strongly suggest first using the Retin-A gel (which has to be doctor prescribed) then either the copper peptide serum and exfol serum or salicylic acids or 30% to 70% hydroxy acids before trying Elicina or any surgical treatments.
Im only informing you of the best possible treatments surgical and non but, you still need to talk to your doctor or dermatologist first. The reason I posted this reply is to simply inform you so when you talk to your doctor you will know of the better treatments and be able to determine which is best for you.
