Microneedling with Botox vs Meso-Botox for acne scars
Part of Skin clinical trials.
This study compares two treatments for sunken acne scars on the face: microneedling combined with Botox versus a 'meso-Botox' injection. Each side of your face gets one treatment, so doctors can see which works better for you.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
