Hello All, Roughly 2 weeks ago, I completed my 2nd round of subcision with Dr Peter Rullan in San Diego, CA. I went with him the 1st subcision in 2017. That time I did filler at the same time, but was...

Update: I've attached new pictures under harsh lightning: Left Side: Right Side: I'm very happy with the improvement. The time I can tell the biggest difference is when using a public restroom. Be...

It was $800. The photos were before the rf btw. I didn't notice a difference in scars, but it takes time to improve. There's a decent difference in skin tone and appearance though.

I attached some new photos in my original post. I would say that I received a 60-80% improvement. So much so that I'm moving on. I might do another Vivace session in 6 weeks, but that's it. I did one...

I went back to working out including cardio and weight lifting about 9 days after the subcision. I had no problem with it.

It really is the way to go. I'm glad you're getting great results as well with the subcision/filler. I just had the microneedling + rf done. My face is quite red right now, and I had some pin-point b...

Picture update will be tomorrow night. Looks much better now.

I ended up getting the Hyaluronidase injection yesterday to dissolve the filler. I went to a plastic surgeon's medical spa. He has fantastic nurses that have lots of experience with fillers as they do...

How's the healing process going?

Juvederm Ultra caused lumps for me (easily fixable -- HA fillers are reversible unlike BellaFill), so I'm going to stay away from Ultra from now. I didn't pick the filler, however. I just told the doc...

Congratz on deciding to do subcision; it looks like you picked a great doctor as well. Hopefully, the results stay the same once the swelling goes down, and I look forward to the next update. Do you s...

I bought a Clarisonic vibrator for the skin. I plan on using it on the affected areas twice a day. If there's no improvement then I'll probably get a saline injection to decrease the size.

Oh, I was actually referring to the bumps; and not the actual scars. The scars on the areas that didn't experience bumps I'm extremely happy with. I just hope these bumps don't linger on for months, b...

It was around $800 with filler.

Quick Update; mainly focusing on the leftover bumps: Pictures are 21 Days Post-Op: Right Side: Left Side: (with flash) Minor improvements to the bumps; slow and steady. Does anyone know what those...

QuanHenry -- No problem. I will be posting an update on Wednesday. I hope your subcision goes smoothly, and you get great results as well. thepwhisp -- Thank you. I will definitely be posting frequent...

If you're looking for an AHA, but without the potential for irritation you could look into a serum with lactobionic acid. Whenever I tried glycolic acid in the past it would cause irritation for me, b...

Quick Update: Pictures are 16 Days Post-Op: Right Side: (new picture added) Left Side: (new picture added) The bumps are still there, but they're getting better each day. The left side being a ...

Hello everyone, I decided to go with a combination of subcision and filler (Juvederm) thanks to the great knowledge provided by "beautifulambition." This forum a whole lot better place with him here, ...

Hey Beautifulambition, would you recommend Dr. David Rahimi for subcision/filler? Dr Rullan's earliest appointment is over a month away...

The Dr also stated that subcision would only result in a minor improvement, while fillers would help the most based on the pics. So would subcision even be required? Could I just do the fillers?

Kat22 -- I appreciate the compliment. Yea, I won't be doing BellaFill. Not worth the risk. I've consulted with a doctor, and he recommends subcision with a temporary filler. However, the filler won't...

What do you think about Dr. Rullan? He has a couple of good before/after photos for subcision. Not sure if it's with a nokor needle, however.
