Scarless Healing "Anna, I tried to get in touch with Kimble too but he didn't answer his email. Heh, heh, heh. Perhaps he is a ladies man or something and will only answer emails from women. Perhaps you could have a g... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing Thank you for your response Emily! I did do a search on this and saw it quoted in numerous places, but I wasn’t able to find it on Renovo’s website nor was I able to see where someo... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing Neca, This is depressing. I pinned my hopes on Renovo for the last five years, and now it seems that hope is kind of crushed. This isn’t rocket science. Professor Ferguson merely o... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing Tom, I agree and disagree with you on your points. I think that it is not going to be much longer until we reach the point of being able to both prevent and reverse scarring. Scarring is not just a ... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing The idea of combining Juvidex and Juvista is a great idea Neca! It at least would be a step closer to a custom application. I don’t think there is any possibility of too much of either TGF ... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing “I've read some articles on Juvista and it's supposed to be a miracle for existing scars as well as preventing new ones. Existing scars can be markedly improved with just two injections, with the co... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing I've thougth the same thing Tom. I wonder too if, at the time this treatment is put into place, it won't also address some aging issues. At a cellular level sun exposure is extremely damaging, so if... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |
Scarless Healing I believe that when the military is behind the research it works to the general benefit as the government doesn’t commercialize the technology. I could be way off on this, but that is my bel... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |

Scarless Healing At this point, that would be a more accurate description Tom. The banner on Renovo's website used to read "Scarless Healing" but they seem to have taken that down. They really are pushing the invest... | In forum Acne Scars | 18 years ago |

Why do scars revert back to normal after x months James, I think what you may have read is that instead of DNA the dermis, once injured, has a permanently altered matrix in that it often cannot, by itself, revert to its uninjured state. With deep ... | In forum Acne Scars | 22 years ago |
Why do scars revert back to normal after x months James, Are you saying a mutation occurs and if a drop of my blood were taken, given the scientists knew where to look, they would be able to tell from my DNA where I had a scar? Do you have anythin... | In forum Acne Scars | 22 years ago |
Why do scars revert back to normal after x months Hi Sick Skin, I'm not sure. Maybe the treatments create an overall building of collagen but not a scar specific one. When the overall collagen starts to diminish the scars are back. I believe som... | In forum Acne Scars | 22 years ago |
PUNCH EXCISION for ICE PICKS I read once about a plastic surgeon who would surgically remove scars bit by bit. By this I mean he would excise a small portion of the scar, let it heal for about a month, and then go after it again... | In forum Acne Scars | 22 years ago |
PUNCH EXCISION for ICE PICKS Hi All, I actually tried to order the TCA from Fisher and didn't have any luck. They want business references, etc. A local chemical supply house wouldn't provide TCA until they did an on site in... | In forum Acne Scars | 22 years ago |
