How Can Pitted Acne Scars Be Treated ?

I am a 31 year old female. I have had acne my whole life. I have tried everything. Proactive, Murad, tetracyclin, Retin A...ect. Everything short of Accutane, which I will not take. Has anyone had any success with anything treating cystic acne , or any success treating (pitted/ice pick type) acne scars?

Welcome to HealthcareMagic forum
External treatment for your acne has been failed right ? so now i would opine not to try anymore these sort of drugs. i think you must would have taken antibiotics, if not then you can take it from a good skin specialist as its cystic type of acne. 2nd thing can be tried is Homeopathic drugs. you have chronic pits also, though it may or may not be completely removed but at least new formation can be stopped(by controlling the body's tendency of acne) with hy treatment. i m sure you will get some favorable result if u proceed.
I hope I answered your query. Wish you good health.
