I'm done doing treatments (for now). It's been a couple years, but looking at doing fillers. Any suggestions for the Southern Cali area?

ALL acne scar doctors hike up prices because they know how vulnerable the patients are. If a doctor wants to charge you $5,500 for your initial treatment, you should look elsewhere. Also, if the talk ...

Just a few examples I found of whoever is controlling the hlp account. I hope the moderators see this, as it's a manipulation on vulnerable acne scar sufferers to promote yourself using different acco...

You can make the scars more noticeable and wider with CROSS. They're so small that no one notices them except you. If they really bother you a lot, a little makeup but I would hate for you to spend mo...

Happened to me with TCA CROSS, mainly the left side. It's gotten better since I did 3 TCA CROSS and have done 4 phenol CROSS with subcision. I think it's worth to do at least another couple rounds of ...

I would go with cannula subcision as your first treatment to see how much improvement you get from whatever is tethered. I've never done RF microneedling due to the possible side effects, but if you r...

Differin is the OTC version, which is 0.1%. If that's what you're using, I'd suggest getting a prescription for adapalene 0.3%. Same active ingredient as Differin except a lot stronger. You can also c...

Take care of the acne first, then do scar treatments after. No point in doing TCA CROSS if you keep breaking out. Could be something you’re eating causing acne, or something else. See a dermatologist ...

The best scar treatment for that would be TCA or phenol CROSS. That said, the enlarged pores will most likely get wider an more noticeable. It's also possible after several treatments that new scars w...

TCA CROSS can make things worse before the become better. Dermatologists all say to do multiple treatments to fill in the holes. Have several more treatments and reassess to see if there's improvement...

It could be something you're consuming that's causing this. Try to eliminate one thing you usually eat for a couple weeks to a month. Do that for each food you usually eat to see if it's something you...
