  • Title: Treatment for pitted acne scarring--postauricular punch grafts followed by dermabrasion.
    Author: Solotoff SA.
    Journal: J Dermatol Surg Oncol; 1986 Oct; 12(10):1079-84. PubMed ID: 2944922.
    Abstract:
    A technique is described for treating pitted acne scarring which is not amenable to other forms of therapy. Punch grafts from postauricular skin are used to replace punch-excised facial scars. Dermabrasion of treated areas is accomplished 4 to 6 weeks after grafting. Very good results have been attained in three patients, each of whom needed more than 100 transplants.
