I really considered punch techniques when I first began researching. However, most things I read made it sound like they are reserved for deeper scars and most of mine are pretty wide and shallow, yet...

Oh you're welcome. I hate to ask you to be more specific but is the improvement just from better skin tone and tightening or have the actual scars filled in some/the edges smoothed out? I am not ve...

Hey Cherry! Your blog is super cute! I was wondering if you have seen any improvement to your scars since your peel? The full post of the aftercare was very informative and now I'm intrigued!

Hey FeelsGood, thank you for coming back and updating! That's really nice of you. So are the scars on your temples and cheeks that were subcised essentially gone?

Wow, your pics/improvement looks great so far! I know it's hard to say and if you can't no worries, but from where you started with your original scars prior to your first DeepFx (and before or after ...

Well it's hard to tell the extent of your scarring because your before pics have numbing cream but judging from those, your scarring is not bad at all. I hope you realize they are very mild and that y...

Hey LearnedHand, did you only have one TotalFX done? And if it worked well, why not do that multiple times, why the switch to Mixto? And yes, thank you Slee and LearnedHand for the time you spend wri...

Hey Meg, thanks for coming back and updating! Not sure if I missed it but what laser was used and what type/severity of scars did you have? I'm glad you got improvement!

Hey Inspired, congrats on the treatment! Your results look awesome so far! I'm sure they'll just continue to get better. I hate to get technical, but you mentioned you're hoping for plumping on you...

Yes, I agree. And I wasn't impressed with the before and afters. They look like average results you would get with those treatments sans topicals. Also, the last two pictures the befores and afters ar...

Hey jbird, thanks for the update. What percentage improvement would you say you've had? Have any shallower scars disappeared?

Thanks, Michelle Reece. I do know about realself. What I mean is that, even the doctors on realself in my area do not treat "acne scarring". All of their websites list skin resurfacing or rejuvenati...

How do you find a derm or surgeon to perform acne scar treatments? Specifically, laser treatments. I've searched my area and there are maybe 1 or 2 derms that even mention acne scarring on their we...

Hey jbird, Any updates since your mixto treatment? It seemed like you had excellent results at first. Have they maintained? Thanks!

TokyoGirl and Austra stated what I meant much more clearly. I did not mean to be offensive, I apologize. I, too, have the same kind of scarring they are talking about and also wonder about the sharp...

I hate to be a pessimist, but thank you TokyoGirl for asking those questions of DRaGZ. DRaGZ your scars seemed very minimal in Rahimi's photos and what few icepicks and boxcar scars I can see in you...

Awesome improvements, Cherry! I'm so happy for you. I agree with TokyoGirl. A little resurfacing a la laser and I'd never believe you if you told me you had severe acne. Good luck in your continued...

Hey Cherry, Just wondering how much improvement you saw from the Obagi peel? I'm thinking of getting a series of peels done to unclog pores and if they would help smooth some scar edges or even sh...

Hi justmeuk, I've never had professional tca cross but my guess is the bumps will go down given time. Are they the same size as the pore or are they bigger bumps? Also, what kind of improvement ...

Congrats jbird! I look forward to hearing more from you! I am definitely beginning to lean towards the Mixto laser, especially because I have tan skin (Caucasian, black, asian mix).

DRaGZ, that's great news and congrats again on your improvement. I wouldn't mind having freckles haha. Did he perform subcision on each boxcar, including smaller ones? I have probably 20-30 per cheek....

Thinking about the way fractional lasers work, I don't think they could untether skin. In fact, I would argue those that don't get results with laser alone is because their scars are tethered down. I ...

Given the improvement on your deepest scar from the test spot, do you think it's possible to get 90% improvement or more on shallower scars? I don't expect to irradicate all my scars but besides my b...

Gotchocolate, sorry if I missed this in the thread but was it fractional CO2 or full on, old school CO2? Do you know the name of the laser used?

Hey TokyoGirl, for your spot treatment on one scar, did Dr. Rahimi use the different head to sand down the edges or anything, like he did with Dragz? Or was it just a simple one shot with the laser? ...
