In the office, they will sedate you - there is no pain pill. After they give you Lortab, 4 or 5 pills I forget. I used those pain pills to sleep, found it quite effective. I'm now out of sleep meds and pain meds and won't be getting more as it disrupts my normal sleep without drugs. I've been taking acyclovir (antiviral) and cephalexin (antibiotic).

@khadija_t Your scarring is very minor. You seem to have sensitive skin and heal slowly. You could get away with a few peels. Fraxel 1927nm multiple passes. You only have the slightest textural issues. Many would not even treat this and perhaps get a chemical peel . Your skin looks better than most cases I help daily. We all have some texture, pores, or differences in skin. See Dr H consults for a laser peel or Dr Anil for a chemical peel. I would not subcise you, ... what is there to

7 - 8 days. Then pink.

Don't you love it when people who just had mild acne or none at all say to you it is not that bad of a problem. Damn i put up with this shit for 30 years going to the derm. I will never be the same mentally and socially since my acne started breaking out at age 14. I wish i could trade my problem with those people and in 30 years could tell them....it's not that bad! I have been a recluse most of my life outside of working.

Hello, I suffered with the scars sometime during high school and it has been almost a decade since. I promised to give back to this forum if I ever got better because I had spent so much time researching on here when I was suffering. I never thought I would get over it, but I did. I kept putting off this promise even though I've been good for years now, but now I'm combatting another life obstacle, so maybe it is a sign to pay my dues. I have tried a plethora of things from VI peels, microdermab

@royaume I think we have here unrealistic expectations of scar revision work. You get a small percentage with every procedure. It depends on your body's ability to heal. Your Dr's expertise and skill. He has had (correct me if I am wrong), one procedure. This is great results. No one will go in after one procedure and have glass smooth skin unless there is a miracle. It takes treatment over time (3 years for some people) and healing. I NEVER promise % (Results),... why. That is variable for ev

Can a admin please tell us his opinion on the results. Maybe I am blind but I cannot see much difference. My scars are also shallow but its really disappoiintig to see that we are in 2018 and still dont have a new treatment where we can see clearly 50 % improvement. Maybe its the lighting but I can only see at maximum 10 % improvement. We need new options my friends. We are all sitting ib the same boat but thats my honest opinion. It doesnt make sense if someone tells me that they can see 5

I myself am falling for the picture because a severe case of scarring would look severe in either of those photos (at least in my experience) @F93D, what do you yourself grade your improvement?

There is a new treatment for acne scars in Korea and Sweden it's called INNO Plus+Subcision + RF using a cannula, can also use filler. It's a subtle change, seems like it would be perfect for box cars, rolling, and tethered spots. If you are near Korea / Sweden there is a new treatment subcision with RF. If anyone gets it please post a update here as we cannot get this in the USA ;-P-- Korea http://blog.sina.com.cn/s/blog_b9ef0f610102vmrr.htmlhttp://rnmeskin.blogspot.com/2015/06/inno-plus-upgrad

I guess this is why we usually stay up in our rooms all day to keep all this from happening.
