I will be getting subcision and TCA cross after ample time has passed after my accutane treatment. I was wondering, is there a specific order that I should get them done in? If any of you who have had them both could tell me, that would be great.

i think tca cross is first to level the surface then subcision

but letting you know tca cross will give you a different skin texture and the redness will last for around 6 months or longer

So I have heard. How different is the texture, and have you had TCA cross or subcision? If so what percent improvement would you say you've gotten?

i have gotten tca cross 80% done and the improvement some filled in and the ones that didnt are 80% improvement

its only been a month and 1 week however the texture isnt really that different but it is and the redness makes it look noticeable so if the redness wasnt there i would say it would be acceptable but i notice the theres nothing that will work on these redness from tca cross even using topical creams and when i say that i really mean it because currently my skin tone,hyperpigmentation,brown marks has improved so much after using glycolic acid 10% lotion with snail cream and man it improved in just a week by alot but the redness didnt get lighter not even a bit so the only con is dealing with the redness spots which will take atleast 6 month

That's great that you got so much improvement, do you have photos?

you can use lower concentration of TCA to help improve the redness which is called TCA PEEL,once a month,just make an alternation of CROSS and PEEL,the former handles the scars and the latter helps handle the redness......

I am thinking I will go to the same doctor that Mr. Matt went to for my treatments. I am almost finished with accutane. For those interested, I will do a before/after log when the time for me to get the treatments comes!
