Punch excision, graft replacement can be done for treating boxcar scars. Rolling acne scars or chemical peeling helps a lot. You can use Retin A 0.025 percent cream at night for 15 days.

You can use Acnesol gel in the daytime for 15 days on the new pimples. Relax and be stress-free as stress is a big contributing factor. Apply sunscreen as mentioned above. Avoid having direct exposure to the sun. Avoid taking oily food, junk food, dairy products, egg yolk, fatty foods, and a high carbohydrate diet with spicy foods.

Microneedling, derma roller, laser, and peels work better in combination. Dermafiller stimulates collagen formation.
