Dermatologist Shereene Idriss shows how the TCA cross technique treats ice-pick acne scars by injecting 100% trichloroacetic acid directly into each scar. The acid creates a controlled wound that remodels the skin, with results visible a decade later. The patient also had Sculptra injections for additional improvement.
What does it look like to put acid in these scars? And this is a patient from 10 years ago, and this video is from 10 years ago as well. This is the TCA cross method where you're putting 100% acid into each tiny scar, and by the end of the treatment, this is what your skin looks like. And these white dots are basically your skin sloughing off and dying off to create a fresh wound so that eventually you can get results from this to this. Now, this particular patient, we also did several other things, and although the quality here is a bit lower— again, this is from 10 years ago— it was not fat that we transferred. We did other things including Sculptra, and I'm happy to dive in deeper If you guys have questions, as always, you guys can DM me, let me know, and we can get into it, maybe for a pillow talk later on.
