Is India the place to go for scar treatment

This study has amazing results and it’s so basic
Grade 3 and 4 acne scaring was treated with subscision, dermaroller and 15% tca as well as 0.05 Tret
1 year later results were still there and the study was in 2014. Why are we still so behind if they achieved 70-100%

[acne] red, itchy, hot reaction that comes in waves on cheeks. Could this be contact dermatitis or rosacea???

I started Adapalene around a month ago and 2 weeks ado started getting redness on my cheeks. It was hot but would come in waves. I stopped using the Adapalene and after a couple of days, the redness subsided. After three days of no redness I re applied Adapalene only to my nose and then two days later the reaction came back, this time with bumps and itchiness. I wend to the derm and she said it was rosacea but I’m skeptical given that I never had any sort of redness prior to this, and the reaction only seemed to have reappeared when I applied the Adapalene. Please help!!! Could this be perioral or contact dermatitis???

Pls help

Top is before microneedling bottom day 2 of 2nd session. Do you guys see any improvement? Should I continue with it or try looking for other options?
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Any idea how to get rid of this?

This all started this June, prior to this I have absolutely 0 texture, haven’t had any in years, and all of a sudden it’s back, at first it was on both of my cheeks but now for some reason the left side cleared up but the right side still remained with the textured bumps, I hate it so much, I’ve tried everything, new skin care products (spent $300 on bunch of different products) enzyme peel service+ facial, which didn’t do anything whatsoever … someone lmk , also yes I’ve visited a dermatologist for the first time ever around 2 months ago and she prescribed me 0.1% tretinoin and to use it once every 3 days , nightly before bed and spironolactone, the only thing that worried me though is that she barely even assessed my skin much, she just took a quick glance and asked what my skincare routine looked and that was it, so I just got worried that she was only a healthcare provider for the money, also her main path wasn’t even dermatology, they did everything other stuff like gynecology, pcp, idk just other stuff, and dermatology just happens to be one of them, anyone got ideas? Should I visit another dermatologist to get a second opinion, or if someone lmk what this is and how I can get rid of it that’d be great, I’ll put two pics side by side, one side being the clearer side and right side having the bumps that I want to get rid of
