Neofight, the "prevailing wisdom" on tretinoin versus tazarotene is that tazarotene is seen more as an ingredient that treats acne, whereas tretinoin treats both acne and possesses powerful anti-aging...

Can you link this thread you're referring to?

Congratulations on your success with Silikon ... I would have NEVER had the courage to do it! For some of the reasons that have already been mentioned. But your progress with the Silikon is amazing. P...

I'm curious about the cheek filler you had that improved the look of your scars. What kind was it? I'm interested in this. Also, I agree with the other member who said your scars aren't deep. That's...

Quadboy, thank you! This is basically exactly what I was hoping to hear. I'm pretty sure you guys have told me before that subcision is not appropriate for my scars? Not sure. I'll look back over my o...

Hey Chummy! Welcome to the forums. Thank you so much for your feedback!! :):) I really appreciate it. I honestly think a lot of my scars are scarred pores/enlarged pores too. Let me know if I can help...

Hey guys. As you all know I have some icepick scars, but I think the majority of my scars are boxcars, and most of my scarring is superficial (I think.) I'm terrified of TCA CROSS, but am getting more...

Are subcision and phenol cross done at the same time to the same scars?

My bad, I must have gotten the two confused!

I would use concealer for the redness. It works wonders. I hardly leave the house without it (not for redness but for my undereye circles.) Additionally, look into products you can use after the proce...

I'm definitely incorporating glycolic into my routine now, like you said, if for no other reason than to improve the overall health/quality of my skin. The only thing I want to disagree on is that I'm...

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone has used Epidermal Growth Factors/stem cell topicals combined with microneedling to treat acne scars?

Actually I'm not finding a lot on glycolic in the FAQ, except for in the hyperpigmentation section.

I still think these are very impressive results for "just" a chemical peel with tretinoin. Glycolic is not even a deep peel. It's very encouraging. If it helps even remotely with atrophic scarring, wh...

What do you guys think about this? We are always told that nothing topical will improve acne scars, so how is this possible?

Hey, your before and after for the silicone microdroplet fillers is incredible, but what is the third picture? Is that current? My understanding is that phenol is ridiculous for downtime/healing. You...

Dazzed, I appreciate your honesty. You're totally right. I'm completely obsessed with my skin. I'm leaving it be for now. The only thing I might do is add adapalene (Differin) on the nights I don't us...

Toni, I think your skin looks totally fine, and I don't think it's worse than mine at all, only difference is you have a few scars on your forehead and I don't. I used to hate when people said this bu...

Mine are totally visible too, sound like they are worse than yours, but many people on this forum have told me they are mild. Are you starting out with TCA at 35%? That's crazy to me. I have this...

Hello everyone, many of you have told me that my scars are "mild," but they bother me SOO much. I've been thinking about treatments for a while now but I'm so terrified of side effects like hyperpigme...

Hello, I'm guessing you know this but I just want to reiterate you should not do a TCA peel at home at with anything remotely even close to 35%. Definitely not initially, anyway... I ordered my first ...

I don't think it looks bad. I know that's not your question but just my $0.02!

It looks mostly like scarred pores to me from my research. I'm told TCA cross is best for treating this type of scar.

AHA and tretinoin have done very little for my shallow acne scars. So I doubt Retinol (over the counter version of tretinoin) will do anything. Just my experience. Tretinoin has done wonders for eveni...
