Hey everyone,

I have a question concerning subcision.

When doing scar treatments, it is usually recommended to perform subcision before doing laser treatments. Now i was wondering if someone knows if there is any real disadvantage to performing subcision after laser treatments instead of before.

The situation is as follows. I have just had my second total fx treatment, and although there certainly is improvement, I suspect I have a few boxcar scars that are either tethered or need some extra lifting. The problem is, there is no one in my country performing it so I'd have to go abroad. I will do that if necessary, but i really first want to make sure it actually is necessary. This winter i will also have a full co2 laser treatment, the non-fractionated one under full sedation. This might just take care of it, but I'm just exploring my options.
