That said, when the skin that lies in the vicinity of acne scars is evaluated under a microscope one can usually (not always) see histological changes in the all three layers of the skin from the epid...

All sebaceous follicles in the face originate in the subcutaneous layer of skin. If you plan to remove all scarring, you will have to go down that far.     It's the sebaceous gland that the...

Think about the hot spots on the face, the temples, and the cheeks where smiles can cause it. Think about where most people don't get scars, the forehead, the nose, although some people scar here, it...

Nah, hopeseed, it's hard to disagree that the mechanical side of things is what contributes to scarring. This is based on scientific research. Look at the picture of my back and you'll notice that m...

I especially liked the part that said Dr. Gurtner predicts that new therapies to significantly reduce scarring are only a year or two away...   I didn't like the part where a mechanical aspect w...

I think Acell is a step ahead of Juvista, and more effective.     I hope so...but right now Juvista has more scientific evidence.       Renovo, is also traded publicly in ...

back to juvista (I don't know if this was posted back on July 10th)   juvista news webcast   looks like they are about to test scar revision

What you say regarding docs trying Acell is not reasonable.   I never said anything about docs trying acell ...I put the notion out there that people getting CO2 and dermabrasion should inquire ...

LASH laser

I think what we should do is go into the threads that people post/peruse right before they get CO2 or dermabrasion done and let them know about Acell and ask them if they would be willing to ask there...

My hope is that since the face seems to be easier to scar that once products are developed that hinder the cascade of events that results in scarring, that scars on the face will be easier to reverse/...

I think the best case scenario would be local application of TCA followed by a continued appliation of Acell in a gel form over a period of days.     This best case scenario could pan out if...

Hey, I haven't been in here in a few hours, did we cure scars yet?     Well when you die and turn into dust, you won't have scars anymore.   Kind of the beauty of life isn't it? No ma...

Prevention is the same as revision. If you can prevent scarring from occurring in the first place then you will be able to remove exisiting scars from patients via scar excision (a form of scar revisi...

SW Cub has kindly posted his/her communication with an Acell representative and from what I deduce of Acell's reaction to using their ECM technology for scarless healing it seems the product is not su...

Skin care clinic possibly pursuing Acell for acne scars:       deliverance is at hand

It would be interesting to hear from Dr. Prevel how well Acell works on surgery wounds. If it produces scarless healing or very close to that then it would probably work really well with acne scars b...

Absolutely. In all likelihood, asking any ACell trained physician will point you in the right direction in terms of using the treatment on older scars.   I wonder how are we supposed to find an ...

Guys, let's not forget that scarring most likely goes all the way into the subcutaneous, fatty tissue underneath the dermis, as that is where follicles originate.     Scarring doesn't most ...

I feel like I'm the perfect candidate to try these sorts of things. I think it was nikkigirl who mentioned something about no doctor being willing to cut up someone's face without evidence that it wi...
