Ice Pick Scars and their Treatment

These kinds of scars are deep and narrow. These are usually in small sizes but sometimes look like large pores.  Punch grafting and punch excision are the most common treatments for these types of scars.

Box Scars and their Treatment

These scars are broader in shape but have very steep depressions with sharp edges. Most common treatments include punch elevation and punch excision. Another common treatment is through dermal fillers that are inserted into the skin to fill the depressed areas.

Rolling Scars and their Treatment

As the name suggest, these scars have rolling-like depression on the skin with leaning edges. These can be treated through a procedure called subcision. A scalpel is put inside the skin to cut the tough base of the scar. This tough base is the cause of leaning edges once cut down makes the skin smoother.
