Botox has limited applications when it comes to treating acne scars. Here’s the breakdown:
- Botox Doesn’t Fill Scars: Botox is primarily for dynamic wrinkles, not indented or pitted acne scars.
- Temporary Smoothing: Botox can temporarily soften the appearance of some shallow scars by relaxing the surrounding skin tension. This effect is subtle and wears off as the Botox does.
- Best Results with Combination Therapies: For significant improvement in acne scars, procedures like the following are often more effective:
- Dermal Fillers: To fill in depressions.
- Lasers or Microneedling: To stimulate collagen and remodel the skin.
