Box scars, rolling scars and ice pick scars are common skin problems that can occur as a result of acne, injury, inflammation or surgery. They often cause a person to feel self-conscious and uncomfortable with their appearance. Chemical reconstruction of scars (CROSS) may be effective in removing these types of scars. Chemical Reconstitution of Skin Scars (CROSS), uses trichloroacetic acid (TCA) to treat the scars.
TCA cross is performed by applying a tiny droplet of TCA in the bottom of each scar with a toothpick/needle. This is a safe and effective method.
Immediately after the application of the strong acid, the skin becomes white. This reaction is called frosting which is caused by denaturation of the proteins in the skin. Thereafter the skin becomes red because of the remodeling of the scar tissue. The redness can persist for several weeks. Several acne scars can be treated in the same session, and the treatment is repeated after 4 to 6 weeks. However, it’s important for you to understand that it takes some weeks for the scars to remodel and for any notable results to appear.
