Often it is treated as a two\u2010dimensional disease with lasers and similar devices, whereas it is really a three\u2010dimensional problem. Fillers have been used for many years but recently fillers with more lifting potential have been made available and serve the purpose of the selective elevation of atrophic scars, adding the third dimension to treatment.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Five patients with atrophic acne scarring were selected in this pilot study. Each patient was treated twice with a 3\u2010month follow up from the second treatment. A vertical modified tower technique was used with a hyaluronic acid filler to lift each scar and support the skin to adopt a more flattened appearance.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>The mean scar count declined from 48.8 scars to 15.4 visible after the second session. The mean volume to total correction with filler of all scars declined from 1.144\u2009mL to 0.525\u2009mL from the first to second session. Global subjective improvement was assessed at 5.4 and 5.5 (\u22123 to +10 scale).
