51WithSkin 11 Share Posted December 30, 2015 What is the downtime after having subcision for rolling acne scars? I am between jobs right now, However, I am interviewing. I would hope I could get a subcision on a Friday and return to work on a Monday. I would do it now but I don't want to hear my significant other nag that I paid money it. However, this means a lot to me and I am going to get it done weather /he/she likes it or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
orangez 6 Share Posted December 31, 2015 /he/she...do tell, that sound scandalous. But yea, I personally would not get subcision 2-3 days before an interview... I think I saw somewhere that the downtime is like a week...although I think it might be strongly dependent on how aggressively it's done. Basically, how long does it take for a bruise to go away? That's how long you want to allow. YMMV though as I'm just speculating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robertitoo 322 Share Posted December 31, 2015 1-2 weeks. If you're suctioning 2 weeks, unless you're a girl (makeup) or you're a badass and can disregard people's opinions of you while you look as if you've self-injected botox erratically. I'm only kidding a bit. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ambergris 13 Share Posted December 31, 2015 After 4-5 days I looked ok. Yellow skin and bruising around the eyes though. If you suction then the downtime is longer. I looked ok after day 7 of suctioning and even when I continued suctioning for the rest of the following week I wouldn't bruise anymore.

51WithSkin 11 Author Share Posted January 1, 2016 Thanks for the reply. So I really should not go to work after I get a subcision? Or can I get a way with it. By the way, did anyone get subcision on their temple area? I have a few deep ones that really bother me. How happy are you with the results over all? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subcision + Suction performed twice improved my temples by a good 50%. All scars that were there are still there but now less pronounce! I'm going in for a 3rd subcision within a few weeks.

madzippy 5 Share Posted January 2, 2016 I was swollen for a good 3-4 days. Not much bruising. 10 days out, still have one bruise and still some localized swelling. The edema and swelling might actually temporarily plump up your scars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
