Title: Suggestions for chin scars?
Post by: HDL on October 17, 2011, 03:29:12 PM
I have these scars on my chin. I have been using .25% retin a since the end of August and just moved up to .5% once my skin was no longer red or flaky from using the weakest strength on a nightly basis. I have the 1mm dermaroller and the 1.5 dermastamp from you but I am afraid to use them for fear of creating more scars. Should I try single needling for my chin? Can I still apply the .5% retin a after I roll, stamp, or single needle? I use biafine during the day and sunscreen on top if I am going to be outside. I am fair hair, fair skin, 41 yr old female. I do not want to risk or spend $ I do not have on lasers, esp since I have seen some awful results online. You just never know what your outcome will be.
What would your advice be?
Love your site BTW! Very informative!

Do you know what caused your scars? I am asking because they seem to be slightly tethered to the underlying structures. I think you should use your 1.5 mm dermastamp and combine it with the suction method. Please read this forum posting:
