BRD,   Thank you for posting this information. I've been researching this for a while now, and I think we're on the precipice of a revolution in skin renewal.   The thing I'm curious about i...

Just wondering how everyone's results have been faring.   ???

Hi Kiki, Are these incisions that you had to correct the additional ice pick scarring you received as result of your dermabrasion? Are incisions only used to treat ice pick scarring? Can y...

Amnesiac and Guarded,   The best thread about Dr.Y is 62 pages long and located here:   Several procedures are discussed. I hope that helps.   I'm not sure what the next step is for me...

Well guys/gals,   It most certainly is not a Punch Float! I had those last year and 1 more in May. Trust me...Punch Incisions are different than Punch Floats....and they're definitely different t...

wait this doesnt make sense if a incision is to cut into the tissue than a excision is when the scar is cut out and stiched up did she mean excision     ←       Hi Delta,...

Hi LOVE,   Haha dont tell me you actually listened to them did you? you must be in my age group then. I took my siggy off because I was just about ready to leave the board again LOL since Old Guy...

MeetPete,   Why did you take the songs off your siggy?

Why can't he do the punches for free on the icepick scars for you? Did he offer this at least (even though I know you are uncomfortable with seeking further treatment from him)?   ←  

I am so sorry this happened to you, Kiki. I remember when you and I were researching dermabrasion way back when.    How can you possibl...

WOW! I would think he would do whatever it takes to help you in your situation.  I mean, come on, you just spent $4,500 on the procedure alon...

I should add, I don't believe I, or anyone on this board, should tell another person what they should or should not do/undergo. It's a very personal choice and should be respected. Just because someth...

Thanks sword, i will be giving Dr Y a call at his office on Monday morning, and i will ask him what he makes of it all. I think so far out of everyone who has had this procedure done by him on thi...

No. These are very large icepicks. These are even larger than the ones Dr.Y had treated before the derm.

LOVE please explain further what happen if you could. Thanks     ←    

Wow, it would sure be nice if all these dermabrasioners came back here to update us.      ←    

Right now i am going for peels (Jesseners) for 2-3 months and see if that helps my condition.   ←   What's your "condition" --what type of scarring do you have?

Poe, I'm happy to know you're sustaining good results.

hi kiki! i went through all the postings here, but i coudn´t find an answer if derma affects the scar or the healthy skin. i have a lot of scars (kind of icepick) on my forehead, and they are v...

hi there! i have one question about dermabrasion: i had an appointment with a laser doctor last week and she told me, laser would treat the healthy skin, and not the scars. ??? i always thought method...

Punch Floats:   Appropriate for scars less than 3mm in width. The punch instrument will not accomodate scars larger than 3mm in width.

I have no idea why I didn't get a greater improvement from the dermabrasion.   Kiki

It's possible that if I'd had my deepest rolling scars excised and then subsequently dermabraded, the result might have been different, but that was not the avenue I chose.   Kiki
