An update I did my second treatment of Airgent with Dr Matta a few weeks ago, and I am really liking the results so far. The first treatment didn't give much result, so I didn't post anything except ...

good to know you are still having improvements. by the way, maybe I missed it -- did you go to the downtown Dr? if not, how was the discussion you said you would have? **week 3 update*** Okay gu...

don't find acne easy to beat... I still have some and it is so annoying, when I think I have it under control BEM there comes one.. I don't get many but the ones I get stay for so long time... Any tip...

Julian, don't be misled my the photos. As I have emphasized, the photos do not really show the severity of my scarring for some reason, (might be due to the lighting, my right side face almost looks s...

The Doctor took some photos, I didn't, largely because i don't find the photos able to show the severity of my scarring - for example, when I look at the photos I just took, my right side face looks p...

Yes I drove back. There is no anesthesia involved, not even tropic one. Where do you live? why not just drive? yes, I will just stay with the same dr. To drive to Brampton every 3 months is not a bi...

Thanks Allex, it's awesome to see the true aftermath. It does look like a bad acne breakout. Keep us posted on how much the swelling goes down in the coming days. I'm seriously considering this th...

So I had the treatment done yesterday. Dr Matta and his staff were all very nice. The treatment essentially involved no pain and lasted 30 minutes, and the price was not bad (full face $600+Tax). Im...

Damn it, I didn't know! I initially book for two weeks ago and changed it to next Friday! too bad u didnt book ur treatment for this month. you woulf of got a 20% discount on treatment, its a pro...

No Hope, best luck on your treatment tomorrow. My appointment is next Friday, and I am super excited. Do you think 3 days are enough for the down time and will I be presentable for work on Tuesday? I ...

@no_hope TCA CROSS was done in a different country, but I know that some doctors do perform this procedure in Toronto. My understanding is that it works best for deep and small icepicks scars, while ...

I used to have everything - a total mess. I think TCA cross helped filling many icepicks (deep narrow craters) and I still have tons, primarily some boxscars on the center cheeks/temples and rolling s...

No HOPE, did you get your treatment on the day of your first consultation? I was thinking maybe I should reschedule until they have the new machine to save a 45 minutes trip which I need to take a day...

It is just consultation. I asked if the procedure can be done on the same day, the receptionist said no. What you mentioned is probably why.   You are right. When I called them, they said t...

You are right. When I called them, they said they don't do it any more because of "supplier issues". Don't know what means but I made an appointment with Dr Matta later for the 15th. I am at downtown...

this thread attracted my attention. I did some research and there seems to be a clinic in Richmond Hill that provides this service as well. No Hope, thanks for documenting this... you said the downto...

Hi Greg, thanks for sharing with us your journey, and especially those photos. I can see that you are trying to show the real improvement as much as you can, which we really appreciated. And from the ...

I live in Toronto and I agree that TCA CROSS is probably the most effective way to deal with icepicks I have tons of acne scars of different kinds thanks to 15 years of cystic acnes. A few years ago,...

Allex are you asian-skinned? People had it done years ago during the dermabrasion frenzy. I have no idea how their results help up. Yes, I am east Asian. When you say "it", you mean TCA or derma...

it is not popular because it is not as fancy as those "new lasers" and the doctors can't charge $$$. More importantly, it requires lots of experiences and high skills, which means it is easy for the d...

With all due respects, none of these "natural stuff" will give any visible results, at least not in the first 20 years.

I did it two years ago. didn't give much result i would say. My face remained reddish for 6 months. But now it returns to its natural color without any complications. But in general, no result (or li...
