My Current Before and After Pics of my Scarring

What a great positive post for a change.... ugh it was getting depressing around here. I really think the professional subcision sessions you plan to get will give you even better results. This is p...

My Battle with Acne Scars

Pictures would help diagnose the severity and the appropriate treatment. If you have mostly rolling scars, then subcisions and filler would help with that. The pinkness is relatively pretty easy ...

Moderate-Severe acne scars treatment (Post 2 rounds of fraxel, 3 rounds of and 4 rounds of CO2 laser)

Your point is? That is such a remote possibility it's pointless. That's only if you inject in the tear troughs. Once again you find a way to make it about you bro. Not constructive or helpful in...

Moderate-Severe acne scars treatment (Post 2 rounds of fraxel, 3 rounds of and 4 rounds of CO2 laser)

I don't think it is practical to just recommend going to Dr. Lim. That isn't financially feasible for most people. You could give TCA Cross a try for the boxcar and ice pick scars, although you sh...

Dr David Lim Reviews

While I really like his results and I think he's one of the better doctors out there for acne scars, I think everyone should take a breath before elevating him to guru status. We've seen this a lot w...

Mixto laser on cheeks for acne scars

So was he the one that treated you ? I'm not clear on where you got your laser and filler, which failed in your opinion. To be fair to Rahimi, he really does see the worst of the worst. I mean som...

Mixto laser on cheeks for acne scars

DRagz and Slee were basically the two threads that brought Rahimi a lot of attention and business. They did get positive results and both were happy with their treatment. Yes, I think as far as sub...

Mixto laser on cheeks for acne scars

A lot of doctor's become well known here and eventually fall out of favor for one reason or another. Dr. Lim is certainly no God, but he does produce consistently good results. Dr. Rahimi's name was...

Mixto laser on cheeks for acne scars

Several years ago, before he became well known on the forums, his prices were much more reasonable and some users had positive experiences with him. I've followed him over the years, and his prices h...

Check out these before and afters

It's the same person. Looking at it again, it seems like the "afters" were taken soon after, which means a lot of that improvement is simply swelling. Post laser swelling can make it look like 90% i...

Laser Doesn't Work, Prove Me Wrong.

The extreme ends of the debate 1) Lasers are totally useless 2) Lasers are the gold standard are both kinda wrong. Lasers have their place, but cannot be used for every situation. It has to be tailo...

This girl's results are amazing! Dermarolling/Dermabrasion/Suction

That is not dermabrasion. I've had 2 spot dermabrasions and trust me microdermabrasion is nothing like real surgical dermabrasion. You will be bloody and swollen, and recovering for 1-2 weeks depend...

MSM: The verdict?

There is no topical or supplement in existence that does anything for acne scars. It is 100% all snake oil. The only things that have any effect are surgical treatments, lasers, TCA Cross, etc.

Laser Doesn't Work, Prove Me Wrong.

I have felt this way for a long time. It's not that lasers don't work, they do to a degree, but they are vastly overhyped and overused for all types of scarring. Lasers are marketed and pushed by do...

What kind of scars do I have? Severity? Solution?

First, don't go with this doctor. Anyone who suggests only one modality is not an expert, and frankly just after your money. You were smart to think twice about this surgeon. As many of us have fo...

You Want To See Cortisone Dent

I think hyaluronic acid is pretty safe in terms of the actual material. It is bio-identical to our own natural HA. The glabella area between the brows is a higher risk area, but it's probably a remo...

How severe is my scarring?

I'd also rate them as moderate. The scars seem to be concentrated in your beard area, so it makes concealing them so much easier. If my scars were concentrated there and if I could actually grow ...

Scar treatments don't work. Save your money and quit funding your doctor's trip to Hawaii

The truth is somewhere in the middle. Acne scars and scars in general are difficult to improve, but it is possible. I think sometimes as scar sufferers, our expectations outpace what can be realisti...

Every pimple turns into an ice-pick scar.

You need to get on Accutane. If your acne is scarring regardless of whether you are picking at them or not, then it's serious enough for Accutane.

Do the temporary fillers first to see if you like it before committing to something for life. It would essentially be a trial run for when you do decide to do something permanent. Of course, if you ...
