The Friday Follow-up

It’s been a while since we’ve had one of these, but thanks to kev_n, we’ve got a great follow-up for you today.  You may recall this scarification piece for a little ways back.

It was originally mislabeled as a dermabrasion scar, when it was indeed done with a scalpel by Matt Vermillion from Artistic Design (West) in Indianapolis, Indiana.

I developed them from acne on my chest. I’ve tried so many remedies including surgeries, injections, pressure…nothing seems to work.
