How To Treat Acne Scarring (2024)

[@usamasyed]

I made a retinoid cream! If you're interested in using it for acne scarring, check it out here: shop.heystratum.com It's now my favorite retinoid product in the world and the one I use each night... but I'm biased here, so do your own research. I used the strongest over the counter retinoid available in the U.S. to get maximum effect, but added a BUNCH of moisturizing and soothing ingredients so that it's not irritating like most retinoids.

[@Breastident]

My acne scars are not severe, do you think retinoid might work?

[@Cube_Box]

Hey Dr Usama There's a new doctor around the block in youtube called Dr abs He claims that dermarollers are much more effective compared to the expensive sessions at clinic sessions Does his claim have any validity?

[@susanquinlan7426]

Severe scarring should be covered by insurance The mental health threat in this society is far to severe.

with that logic, you would have to cover surgery for anyone ugly enough that it effects their life negatively

[@michaelhall7764]

My acne and scars were so bad that the dermatologist office took pictures and sent them to my insurance, who agreed to cover scar procedures. Acne, especially severe acne, is directly correlated with depression.

As a 30 year old woman, acne scarring has truly changed my quality of life for the worst. I don’t date, I don’t go out much, and I feel very self conscious. It sucks when im in the car and sun is shining and it highlights the scars. I’ve been suffering for over 10 years. It’s hard to deal with. I went to a aesthetician and received a chemical peel, but they gave me the wrong one and that did nothing for my face. Between the depression, self consciousness, and I feel like I can’t live a full life because of the scars on my face.

[@isisjsbsdi5939]

Which type of laser therapy ?

[@yanisyns6427]

I am interested in hearing more about this as well! What kind of laser treatment have you found to be most effective? Do you have to get it on a regular basis or just a few sessions to completely eliminate the problem?

[@justusbrk]

Initially I did it every month (if not maybe every 2 weeks, I am not sure). This helped especially against the Acne. But the effect is very lasting, so currently every 3-4 months is sufficient for me. This is also due to "condition" having goten better. So now I do for the scarring. I found that the laser worked better than the needling. Although; the needling worked best at a higher intensity with a deeper piercing (deeper piercing will hurt more though). I can't tell you much about the laser. I only know what my doc cals them. There are some that help better against acne, some better against scarring. Laser-vampire-needling is not recommended by me though. All in all i wish my previous doc didnt keep his mout shut and told me about this. It was my best life decision yet. Truly life changing for me. Pls remember the experience may vary.

How was the accutane experience for you? Did it stop your acne for good?

[@dimpywadiya]

@@monikamadaan7020 I have low immune but digestion process is faster as my intestine and liver doesn’t absorb much from food. I had accurate for a month and stopped because it was affecting mental health and calcium. So doctor advised vitamin D3 so that body can absorb calcium and vitamin B12 for hormones and immune. I have stopped drinking milk and eating chocolates. But antibiotics helped a lot. Learn to manage acne I believe. I’m suffering from this chronic disease from 4 years. I take meds and it stops but again I got twice due to stress. But from last one month I have started doing se stressing activity, meditation and read positive books. I’m happy and gaining weight Acne are under control also it doesn’t leave scars and dark spots because I’m using the world’s bestttt combination during night that’s niacinamide and Adaplene with good amount of moisturizer. Drinking fruit juices and also about to start vegan protein powder which will help more. You should definitely try accutane for a month because it is life changing; many friends of mine had taken just for a month and they have beautiful skin. The only con is it may affect physical health but you can manage them smartly.

The amount of monitoring they did to make sure he had no side effects was huge and much appreciated. Now he is on tretinoin cream and although he has very minimal scaring we are moving forward with microneddling. My husband and I have never suffered with acne and it is so heartbreaking seeing your child go through it especially when it's so bad you have to be put on Accutain.

[@re_i_gn]

Your son is very lucky for having a good and responsible doctor. I was put on Accutane when I was 17 and the side effects were horrible. Extreme drying and itching, especially all over my back. And my dermatologist never followed up or gave me tips to prevent the side effects.

Ive done micro dermabrasion, chemical peels, microneedling, fully ablative laser resurfacing (that's under anesthesia, performed by a surgeon with 6 months heal time), subscision, and filler. I still have pretty severe scars. Nothing has worked for me. I do think the medical grade skincare I've been using has made a huge difference in texture. Ultimately, though, you just kind to have to learn to live with it. I've found that people really aren't that superficial in real life, unless they're young or generally shallow.

I'm thinking of getting more sessions just to hopefully get me a smoother skin. You're right, INSURANCE IS CRAZY FOR NOT HAVING THESE TYPE OF CONDITION BEING COVERED ! I wish I can afford to get a fat transfer and fillers . I also began using some type of Retinol but I know I will have to continue w/ more microneedling. I'm not exctly sure about PRP.

[@nikeisagreekgoddess4135]

The felt experience of someone with severe acne scarring is comparable to experiencing mutilation. Mostly because it's facial. Your beauty is taken away, changes in lighting suddenly reveal a grostesque attribute to your facial features to others. Being aware of that makes you want to not be seen. In addition to dealing with that loss, you have to deal with people who lie to you. You knpw how perfectionistic women are about their appearence and yet they pretend your scars are not a big deal. The way we judge ourselves is the way we judge others.

I think it’s also important to note those who are considering Lasering that many clinics use lasers that work well with those on the Fitzpatrick scale of 1-2 (skin type) and can cause scaring to those with more melanin rich skin. Those with more hyperpigmentation prone skin have to opt for a laser known as Nd:YAG which is often more expensive. At least that is my experience. Would be great to see an efficacy comparison between Nd:YAG and Microneedling so can channel the funds for the most effective treatment for those of darker skin tones.

[@MelissaMelissa-ge6jx]

Pico lasers are also appropriate for type 3+.

[@whitepaper5241]

Yep. A fully ablative CO² fractional laser isn't suitable for Fitzpatrick scale 3 and darker. In my country, we use a mildly ablative CO² fractional laser because it's sunny all year and most people are on Fitzpatrick scale 3 and darker. It's not nearly as effective as the fully ablative ones, but it's quite effective for moderate pigmentation and mild scars. People with severe acne scars are usually given 2-4 treatments at once - they usually consist of subsicion, tca cross, prp, and CO² fractinal laser. And while insurance can't cover those treatments, it's fairly cheap to get those combined treatments - around $100-$300 here.

[@AxuPlays]

Thanks for acknowledging the importance of acne scar treatments not being insured. I've dealt with cystic acne and scarring for years and only now after lengthy isotretinoin / laser / alternative treatments I am sort of where I want to be. Not to mention that my skin was broken, bleedy and itchy as hell for the majority of that time.

Hey dude, or shall I say Doctor Dude :) , I've had cystic acne scarring for over 20 years, and I agree with you that OTC products are very limited in effectiveness. In fact I found absolutely nothing disagreeable about any of your statements. You're quite helpful. After a year of Accutane about 5 years ago, the chance I'll get another acne cyst is probably around 95 percent reduced. I almost never see them, but am also using Retin A every day and have ever since Accutane cessation. Before that, I took Doxycyline every day for 15 years. Eventually I started hitting a wall getting it because suddenly everyone was saying that you can't take it for more than 3 months, and I couldn't get an Rx for it anymore, which motivated Accutane treatment. I was too scared of the extremely long and horrifying list of Accutane side effects, but I experienced virtually zero side effects from a year of Accutane treatment. Dry mouth and eyes is all I can remember from it. I wish I'd done it much sooner. From your suggestions I think I'll go with laser treatments. Is there any difference between "Fractional CO2 laser" and any other kind of laser treatment?

I really like this video and your honesty. I wouldn't however pick on these so called 'hippies' for giving very worthwhile input on health warnings beyond skincare. People are very easily influenced by an easy fix, especially when recommended by a doctor but there are other doctors who have dedicated their lives to the interactions of the body as a whole and would disagree with the abundant prescription of medication. As a healthcare professional you should always be open to new opinion, and it is worrisome how fast you shoot these people down. For people experiencing highly inflamed skin, diet plays a huge role. Cutting out foods that upset the gut will absolutely help.

[@Biesjager]

I can recommend Dr. Emil Henningsen in Denmark. He’s is the best acne scar specialist in Europe, in my opinion.

[@camillaskold5891]

@@Biesjager Wow, really nice of you to recommend a dermatologist. Thank you🙏. I will check him out👍.

[@Biesjager]

@@camillaskold5891 No problem. He told that most of his international patients are in fact from Sweden. If you have any questions, I am more than willing to answer them. We can arrange a pm if you like.

I appreciate your videos so much! It's good to hear reasonable skin health information that doesn't feel like a commercial. Thank you! ❤️

Gone through many videos about scarring,what you told is exactly correct as per my past experiences with scar treatment. Informative content, I have an ambiguity whether micro needling reduces or shows impact on fine lines/wrinkles of aging process.

[@ksh8114]

Thx for the information! Could you, please, make a video about eye skincare?

[@rossdownie1502]

thank you for your honesty

[@syedazubdakazmi5363]

Thanks a lot Dr. Usama Syed..... I was anxiously waiting for this video

[@TimePass-gv9cf]

Subcision with deep microneedling pen aleast 6 sessions lastly one good 2.8 depth C02 fractional laser however supplements or skin creams plus medicine are required for acne . I had scar , I took these procedure now my skin is glass baby skin.

[@jocelynnichols2898]

I tried everything. Only microneedling worked. Did my scars disappeared? No, but diminished 70%

[@Gian-ni]

What topical did you use following micro needling?

[@ahmadhassan987]

I hope Ms Shirin also start her videos again

[@FreePalestine123-b1x]

Informative video. Could you talk about how microneedling and some heat based treatments can potentially cause fat loss in the face. Ive been watching some other drs talk about this so it's concerning.

[@seaglass.jen86]

Thank you. This video deserves more likes.

[@AB-zf8lz]

I don’t even have acne scaring and this was an interesting watch

[@usamasyed]

That’s a big compliment!!

[@thisizshortlycherifa7810]

Micro needling is the best treatment to scares and ance believe me

[@gfranzet3715]

Don’t know why I never see this on dermatology channels, but two burdock root extract and acupuncture heal acne. According to TMC, acne is heat. When I had terrible acne, after one treatment, it cleared up in two days. The trick is that you need to find a good acupuncturist who knows how to clear the heat on the proper channels.

[@asiandrama6605]

Thank you so much we want these types of vedio more

[@osamaalsalman6865]

Hi Dr. Usama. Love your content! Can you please make a video for eye care? eye bags and eye circles? There is a lot of garbage about how to get rid of them and nothing scientifically-based. Hence, I am sure your viewers would appreciate one! Thanks!

[@cheeryblossoms2011]

A few years ago I was able to get fraxel laser on my face after years and years of cystic acne. I got 4 treatments over a year and a half. Best decision I ever made. I'd love to get another one... you're supposed to get one once a year but I don't have enough money right now. It's been 3 years and I can still see the difference.

[@ibrahim3690]

I'm 20 years old, and I've had terrible hormonal imbalance and oily skin I've gone through roaccutane for about 6 months I think and still suffer with oily skin today the only thing I got from roaccutane is bad joints. Right now, been seeking a solution for oily skin and the scars that were left on my face

[@FamilyMan938]

Great information. Thank you!

[@thortremble2794]

Beautifully made video keep it up brother

Thanks my bro!

[@latichina5]

Accutane saved my life. I wasted so much money on skincare, spironolactone, antibiotics etc I took accutane for 3 months only and I have not had acne in 4 years. Side effects only lasted while I was taking the meds but it was worth it.

[@usamasyed]

Think it’s hugely underrated!

[@jaxfl8945]

Thank you for being honest. So far i have done stamping 4th treatment at home. I have seen little improvement but will continue. I use 3.0 stamper once a month. My box scars are very old and a very smalk area on my cheeks about 3/4 surface. I use vitam c and ordinary moisturizer with retinoid by Ordinary brand, and hyulornic acid as well. Will continue to do monthy treatments until i get desired smoothness.

[@RachelAjibogun]

You’re so cute Dr and your sense of humor is impeccable. I love you already.

Thank you for telling the truth

[@sharonkende4774]

Insulin resistance caused so much acne. Intermittent fasting helped so much as did cutting processed carbs and eating organic produce
