Hi guys, I recently went to do subcision on my face to treat some old acne scars.
This was about 2-3weeks ago, the doctor said in order to see the effects, I need to wait some time and let the collagen grow naturally over the next 3 mths.

However, I realised that since I'm also cutting with a 50% deficit or so (I'm getting abt 1.2k cals/day), my current diet may not be ideal for recovery?
My concern is that this kind of diet may negatively affect the collagen growth for improving my facial scars.

And I have to cut for another 7-8 weeks, can someone confirm that it is bad for my acne scar healing (collagen growth)?

I'm trying to experiment with a new cutting approach (hence the 50% deficit) but also I'm trying to make sure that I can properly get enough collagen produced to reap the results of my subcision.



PS:
Next 2 weeks or so, I might be visiting the same doctor for doing some laser on my face, so I will probably ask him as well during that time.
In the meantime, I read that consuming Vitamin C can help with boosting/maintaining collagen so maybe I wanna get it later today.
