Me too but does sculptra really work at all? And I was bummed we didn't get to see a post healing of the forehead scar basically after the revision. Gotta be honest it doesn't look that different at least right afterwards.

Watch this one it has before and after 1,2,14 months. Also I noticed most of his patients are ethnic which means he understand what type of closure works best.

Another good example its before and after

It interesting he used dysporton the the close area to basically restrict movement in the scar which would help in scar not widening.

Yeah that's a pretty decent improvement. True there's a line there but it's less noticeable. Does the redness ever fade from that line, like excision or other things seem to never fade where it's stitched.

He's near me too. For the record his reviews are great on realself but on yelp with more limited reviews it's mixed.

As long as there is no indent im down with it.

In his case it was quite worth it. It's a subtle line scar no real significant indentation, just some redness/whiteness maybe. I think the 2 laser sessions probably helped blend the color or middle or whatever afterwards. I mean you can still see it but obviously nothing will be perfect. Hopefully over more time that white/red in the line color will fade more, but as a expert on old scars, I have 2 that are still totally white to this day. I think it's part of the nature of meddling under the top layer maybe.
