hi everyone! I was wondering if anyone had experiences with treating scars while on accutane? I am currently 2 months into accutane, and it pretty much eliminated my acne right away so I don’t predict...

Based on my experience, that def isn't normal. I have 1 bump on my temple from his filler also. And that was from a couple years ago. It's still kind of there. Apparently massaging it helps make it go...

Have you asked him yet? I've gone to him a hand full of times now and one time he brought up the phenol peel and something that people do, but he said he didn't recommend it for me.

I recently got subcision and cross done at a local dermatologist rather than flying to Rullan, and my dermatologist did cross after performing the subcision. Wouldn’t this lead to possible complicatio...

Posted by: @dan It's always good to get a second opinion. According to research, here's what works best (attached a pic). But you can also go to the scars page and see what's what. Unfortunately all...

Surprised you have this much redness 4 weeks after cross. As far as the scars being deeper. Do you know if they're actually deeper or just wider? I think I've seen how cross works is it shallows the s...

I'm in the same case with how the temples look and I think you need more subcision there since it looks tied down! Also how much did the co2 ablative hurt? Curious if I get that myself

I've been working on fixing my acne scars since late-2020 I believe and so far I've done (all with Dr. Rullan) 4x subcision (with filler 3 times) 5x cross 4x erbium 1x morpheus Also got V beam 4x for ...

Wondering if anyone has any experience getting a cortisone shot by someone in SF. I want to decrease my chance of getting an indentation

I've had subcision with filler (but HA not Sculptra) with him twice. First one went good with no complications. Second one, I got 2 bumps from the filler I think. When I went back a 3rd time (didn't g...

20% sounds way too low. I feel like there were as many tethers my 2nd subcision as the first one

I always see it recommended that you get rid of any active acne before addressing your scars because you could just get more acne which in turn leads to more scarring. However, how realistic is it tha...

Those results look really good! Personally I'd be really happy with how it turned out. How would you rank the effectiveness of the treatments (if you can I know thats hard)

When I brought up the possibility of getting rf microneedling once when I was getting a trio done from rullan, he told me they don't do much. Of course that could just be him saying nonsense especiall...

Interesting, perhaps I'm wasting my time and money by doing subcision lol. I was going to get it for a 3rd time but not sure anymore..

Subcision with fillers or cupping achieves the same thing (depending on the filler). While the filler itself may be temporary, the reason to get it along with subcision is to prevent retethering of th...
