Suture silhouette improve acne rolling scars?
I'd like to know if procedures like suture silhouette can be used to improve acne scars? When I push my skin with my fingers, my scars fade... silhouette is not too deep like a facelift, so, it can be used for this?
Rolling acne scars do indeed benefit from tightening. We have not seen adequate results with silhouette sutures. However, we have seen better results with skin tightening procedures such as the CO2 laser and facelifts in appropriate patients.

It will improve the smoothness and tightness of your skin to a degree. Minimally invasive treatments like lasers and microneedling as well as the newly FDA approved (just for this indication) Belafill can also help.
