Hi I'm new here, wow the results are amazing. I had cystic acne for just 4 months, and I went to derma and it just flared up and made it worse, and I decided to go to another derma and had accutane. But they my cystic acne left so many scars even if I did not pick them, I feel so bad about this. Can anyone you help me what will I do with this?
Hi Everyone
An update on my progress after 4 subcisions and 3 laser tonings and a few home dermaroll. My 4th subcision was done in May and 3rd laser toning last week. My derm recommended laser toning, it has no downtime and I wasn't keen of anymore harsh treatments like mixto and the fraxel lasers which did nothing for me previously. Comparing to my previous update with 2 subcisions done, yes I do find further improvements, scars are not as caved in anymore. Derm suggest that I continue with my laser tonings that help collagen production, putting aside subcision since I already had 4. Recommended 4-6 laser toning sessions. I would say so far it has been a 50-60% improvement overall but of course looking forward for more Anyone has experience with laser tonings to share?

Thanks! It is a laser treatment for rejuvenation, i.e. boosting collagen production, also helps further break outs, minimized enlarged pores and helps scarring. And no downtime!

I am located in Singapore, it is about $450 per session in my currency. That would work out to be about 360 USD? Hope all work out well for you!
Hi 19lee,

Hi 19lee,

Hi! Can I have the details as well ? Thank you in advance
I had one round of subcision with filler. Two of my scars are completely gone. I have two others that didn't respondI was supposed to go back for a follow up appt, but I am rescheduling bcs 1) I can't afford another treatment right now, and the way I wear my hair does a pretty good job of camouflaging those particular scars 2) I am starting to see results from the micro pen + venus freeze. I looked in the mirror today and looked like I was wearing foundation! The spattering of individual scars is still therebut the overall tone and texture seems to be responding well.
I will go back and do another round of subcision in the spring. RIght now my plan is to continue with the micro pen interspersed with some peels. I think.
The reason the other two didn't respond is bcs of their proximity to a large one that DID respond. They are fairly close together and during the procedure, there is enough swelling that it becomes difficult to obtain precise placement of the filler.
