Hello Sibel, i feel your struggle and really hope you will see some improvements in the new year. Regarding your question on percentages, yes i had 3 rounds of TCA cross with professor chu, and he ...

I had three rounds of TCA cross with Dr Chu, i remember the first time I was shocked how much worse it looked in the hospital mirror. Deeper, wider, 'angrier'. The guy has done this many thousands of ...

it's not a scam, i had a deep ice pick/box car right on the tip of my nose that was making me super self-conscious. three rounds of TCA cross (100%) and i barely notice it now. if the scar is relative...

Hello, I didn't really have much pigmentation at all. There was one spot that kept rescabbing- i showed it to dr chu who suggested it was a vascular reaction and cauterized it for me. That turned quit...

as I said in my thread, Dr Chu was definitely a good doctor to me. I saw him (privately) at the sainsbury wing of the hammersmith hospital, contact details are here:

thanks for your good wishes. really appreciate the information and support i found here.

agreed, but the hard thing is to find a doctor who will give impartial advice, and has your best interests at heart. for example some might recommend excision, but experts have told me that nobody can...

hi, yes it was private. £200 for first appointment/treatment from memory, and £100 thereafter. all in all i think very reasonable given the costs of lasers etc

Sorry if this is a late reply but I can strongly recommend Dr Chu (see my thread). Not only were the treatments effective but I felt all the way through that he had relatively little interest in makin...

So, after three rounds of TCA Cross 100% i am very happy with my improvements: hard to quantify but around 70%-75% i would guess? the worst icepick type scars are perhaps a little wider but much shal...

Hey, just to say Dr Chu is a wonderful and genuine doctor. Good luck with the visit.

seems like you had an exceptional response to your other TCA Cross treatments. Davin Lim on realself says around 30%-40% improvement is a good result for a single cross. I got around that for my first...

congratulations on your improvement! TCA Cross has also worked really well for me. I specifically asked professor chu about after care but he just said... nothing. just wash gently as normal. despite...

fwiw im in the UK and my derm prescribed treclin , which i believe is known as ziana in the US. before that the best i could find was paula's choice 1% retinol. i didn't use that long enough to know ...

scabs fell off a few days ago (both times they've stayed on over two weeks). there's further improvement, i'm maybe 60% better than when i started. with time (and tretinoin) i expect the filling in to...

update: i saw professor chu again yesterday, he agreed that my scars were 'filling in nicely'. he did another round of tca cross, and said i should wait three or four months before deciding whether t...

i'm no expert but your icepicks look similar to scars that i have, and a recent TCA Cross has helped a lot, so i think that would definitely be a good first step to take. make sure you get it done by ...

hi everyone, thanks for your good wishes. it is now 5 weeks after my treatment and i can report that yes, my narrow, deep boxcars have noticeably improved- i would say at least 40%. it's hard to be ...

hi, im not particularly knowledgeable about scarring but i can say that i have had great results from my treatment with professor chu at hammersmith hospital, he's hugely experienced and i think he ge...

checking in here as i inadvertantly posted misleading information in another thread. i had tca cross done by professor chu at hammersmith hospital 17 days ago now. early on i thought i had made remark...

hi, most were on the sides of my nose, the one that really bothered me was on the tip, as it caught the light. this one has definitely improved, i've looked at it in 'nightmare' lighting and it's much...

i would make the trip to london and visit professor tony chu at hammersmith hospital. cost is £210 for first appointment and i think £110 thereafter. he has helped me enormously in one visit (to the p...

i had rather similar scars treated by professor tony chu in london 8 days ago, 100% tca cross. already one pit has closed up around 80%, while the one that bothered me most, on the nose tip, is around...
