Hi Queenie!   I hope your doing well. From my own experience i did not venture out in the sun for 9 months and as a result my skin was pale and even a little pasty despite the excellent improvem...

Hi Kipster,     I have had no complications at all. My skin color is the same as it was before dermabrasion - just like I scrapped my knee and then it healed. The next two months for you a...

Billy Boy - dermabrasion is no different to scarping your knee playing sports. If you have done this how did you heal? Is there any noticeable discoloration? If not it is likely dermabrasion will pro...

Hi Obi,   I too have Mediterranean Skin and have had two dermabrasions with Doctor Y. The first one took about 4.5 months to get almost back to normal colour (like 95% -remaining redness only no...

Sword,   The trick is to ring them and ask to see someone in your areas. Then the lady can meet you and give you a color which is an exact match. It is a pain but is worth it in the long run. If...

Hi Sword,   I went through all that stuff, red as a lobster blah blah blah because on the first day back at work I tried all the MAC stuff, green concealer etc having read it on the board. Plu...

Hi Kim,   I had both mine on Monday Mornings - one at 9am, and one at 10am. How many he does per day and at what time just depends on his appointments. In his younger days I think he mentione...

Hi Sword,   Thanks for passing on the words from Cassandra.   Cassandra is the absolute best. I missed out of getting to know her first time around as she was on vacation but this time she ...

The Clarion Grand is a great place to Stay. If you ask for Gary, the manager there and mention your a patient of Doctor Y's, they give you a real good rate on your room unless booked out.   I...

Just a quick point on the break outs and whiteheads. Like all of you I got it bad --- probably had about 20 at one time. However now six months afterwards I am the clearest in terms of zits and one ...

Hi Miss Shady,   In Terms of getting the scripts from Australia I got my local derm to get me the Cold Sore script (because you have to start that one two days before) and filled that here. I ju...

Hi Portland Boy, Don't worry about him going deep. He went deep on me both Cassandra and him said to me I gave you a "very deep dermabrasion" and he told Sharon Meyer "that means pushing harder ag...

Miss Shady,   As I flew in from another country I can tell you getting the medications is no trouble. The only one you have to try and get in your own country is the one for Cold Sores, can't ...

whoa whoa Craig I don't want to give the impression that it has returned to normal. With scarring like mine that was not and is never possible.   However when I entered this procedure I sought ...

Hey there --- this is a message for the guys. If you are prepared to use Dermablend there is no need to tell anyone why you are going. Noone will even know you had it done after about two a half wee...

Confettied while I am sure everyone appreciates the link, personally I think that those posters could be anyone and not entirely credible.   The reason I say this is, is I did a paid search on D...

Well amnesiac mine was a very deep dermabrasion he told me himself. He wanted to get the most out of me while I was in the US and given the severity of my scarring.   My personal view is that he...

Hi Guys,   I would just like to give my six week update. My redness has completely faded! Today was the first day without using the Dermablend and thank God as I was getting fed up because for ...

I would like to offer my thoughts here. Personally I do not think dermabrasion is an invasive procedure at all. What is invasive is having to live your life unhappy because you can't do the things yo...

Guys,   In my opinion Doctor Y, God willing, will be around for a good while yet. Yes it is important to get in as quickly as possible due to the need for possible more than one procedure but I...

As I was forunate enough to spend a considerable amount of time with "Kiki" prior to the procedure (we were both at the Mcfarland Inn two days prior to our dermabrasions) and heal together after the ...
