Is there any consensus here at the forum about who are some of the best acne scar treatment doctors in the United States? It's hard for me to believe that there aren't some standouts who everyone tries to see.

What? If they aren't at the top, then who is when it comes to subcision?

OK, try Dr Rullan and see. If yours are mild and/or new, a cannula sub may be all you need.

He reccs almost all his patients the trio, sub tca laser

Rullan for subcision. He's one of the most popular ones and his prices are relatively fair. He jacked them up a few years ago though.There are other subcision specialistsbut they aren't mentioned and not many people have experience with them.

Emer is capable but he will charge you a down payment on a house. Benham has gotten more expensive and I don't think his technique is top-notch. Weiner is popular too but I think Rullan beats him on technique and cost.

There are local doctors that do subcision. If you don't have extensive scarring, you could consult with them. Subcision for small areas isn't as difficult as the entire face.

Please avoid Dr weiner. He's only good at advertising his Instagram page.

He definitely advertises more than the average doctor. He has the tools but is he good? Some people here hype him up so beware. He might do package deals that will cost lots of money so take caution of that.

In my consultation with them, they were definitely interested in selling the whole package(Genius+TCA+Sub) for 1900. So, I took the Genius +Sub treatment. I'd consider him as an East coast version of Emer.I believe they recommendGenius for everyone possibly because he has some kind of a contract with lutronic.

What pissed me off was that Genius gave me massive acne cysts on my cheek within 1dayof having the treatment(possibly some kind of a bacterial infection). I've been acne free for the last 10 years atleast, so iwas quite shocked.It's honestly depressing that you are out 2000 bucks and you get additional scars for your trouble and pain. Genius was frigging painful was well.

 

I might possibly visit Rullan bc he appears to be more humble and doesn't advertise too much. But I have to see. I feel so many of these docs just want my money and that's it, nothing more.

Nobody is as bad as Emer when it comes to advertising and cost. It's almost evil.

I wouldn't doubt Weiner has some backdoor deals with companies or people.

Rullan isbetter at sub than Weiner. Rullan also does Phenol Cross - not sure how much this is better than TCA. You can read many posts about him. But don't think one visit with him is going to get you miracle results. Scars are hard to treat. Period.
