blahblah82, Thanks. That is also very good advice on sculptra. At the "no-cost" consult the Dr did also offer the possibility of using my own body fat as a filler after the subcision, but said that i...

Zen9821, This thread does have some great info. So, I'll add a little more. At my consult in Columbus the Dr recommended 2 rounds of subcision and sculptra filler. Subcision $150 + 9mm of Sculptra ...

Inspired, Thanks for your post on "light" subcision. I thought I had read quite a bit on this and did not know about this. I have been unable to find a dermatologist in my area of Ohio that will perf...

bzuz, I had a similar discussion with my aesthetician just yesterday. I had earlier purchased a package of dermanpen and peels "on sale" and have been doing the peel at the same session as the derma...

OK. So, it seems that you are using a 2.0 mm roller about 2 times a week, and roll "heavily". Then you take large amounts of collagen and amino acid supplements , as well as a few topicals, to effec...

An interesting personal prescription. I am not very familiar with the supplements you are suggesting. Perhaps you could describe your logic behind the selection of the supplements and topicals, and h...

AghhNe, It is my understanding that the beta glucans in oats are mostly in the bran, which is about 25% glucans by content. If you look at oats in general with the whole kernels, then the content is...

Yes, I agree with NO_HOPE, as I am one of the newcomers that is seeking answers and information in general on possibilities for my own treatment. I would be very interested in a "7 year update" from ...

Aquasea, I have been following your posts and I have a few questions: 1) I have noticed that in your earlier posts you have certain information "with a line through it", as if the information was "c...

Aquasea, WoW! Thank you for sharing your experience, as this is surely to put more perspective into the choices we make on dermarolling, peels and retin-a. As a result of your warning to be cautiou...

Clearly, there are a lot of different techniques in dermarolling with various needle lengths, time between rolling, and a variety of topical applications. So, just to add more confusions to the mix....

I am thinking that the reason the growth factors are not to be put on the skin after dermarolling or on an open wound it that they are produced from actual human tissue. Technically, all actual human ...

I am also interested in this, as I posted a question on TNS growth factor a few weeks ago and received no responses. My aesthetician seems to be quite sold on the product, as she uses it herself and ...

I am not surprised that sulphur helps acne and I found out about totally by accident. Years back I had a job where I emptied 50 lb bags of powdered sulphur into a large mixer, and some of the dust wou...

I do not know if vinegar will work or not, but it is possible to make your dilute solution more like a lotion by adding 1-2% xanthan gum. Then you could put it on and it would stay a little better. ...
