I'm using Scarend gel for my acne scars. Do you think it's effective if I keep using it for a long time? I'm really struggling with bad acne scars and open pores. Are there any treatments you could suggest that might give up to 90% improvement?

For up to 90% improvement in acne scars and open pores, consider combining Scarend gel with treatments like chemical peels, microdermabrasion, laser skin resurfacing, microneedling, or platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy, under the guidance of a dermatologist.
