I am sorry to hear about what has happened to your skin because of acne. Here are some natural options that may help your skin: 1). daily doses of zinc 2). Coconut oil is an anti-inflammatory and has...

Sorry for the disgusting picture. Any idea what I can do about these? I'm 29 now. It's so hard to get a job. I no longer get that many cysts on my nose. I used to pop and tried needling once. Laser ...

It's been awhile since my last subcision treatment, but I believe that I did not use ice for the first two weeks. The suctioning resulted in prolonged bruising and inflammation which was probably the...

Catherine: I think that some type of auctioning device is better than none. I've found that the subcision/suction method in conjunction with dermarolling and topical vitamin C to be a very powerful co...

I had a Pearl Fractional laser treatment while back and my doctor applied a numbing cream about 45 minutes before the treatment. Even with the lnumbing cream, the procedure was uncomfortable especiall...

I would follow your doctor's advice. You've come this far, why not go the extra distance (two more months)?

Readytosmileagain: I took a look at your before and after photos and I think that you've made quite a bit of progress with the collagen remodeling process. Once you skin calms down, have you conside...

Hi Matt, Where did you get your red and ultraviolet light from? Was it expensive? I purchased it from the LED Man. I spent about approximately $125.00 for the unit. I'm not convinced that it ...

Congratulations on your upcoming wedding! That is awesome. You are the first person that I've heard of who has had subcision for a surgical scar. The purpose of the suction method is to prevent the ...

How are things going for you, justmeUK? Hi, I still have the lumps but they've gone down a lot now. Only one of them is still visible but it has reduced in size by about 50% and although it still l...

I've read that it should be worn indoors due to the fact that UVA and UVB rays can penetrate window glass. I wear it 7days a week during the day. I've come to far to lose any collagen due to sun dama...

Don't forget to apply sunscreen to your freshly peeled and new skin. Enjoy the gradual transformation your skin will undergo over the course of the next several weeks and months.

i would like to do this ...does it matter where you order your peel? Rob, I had my done through a dermatologist but Matt did home peels. I bet he will answer your question soon. Day 6: Well I ha...

Livvie: You are absolutely right. We do live in a fallen world because sin entered the world and along with it: disease and death. Mankind was created into a perfect world and there was no such thing...

Based on my dermarolling research, don't use it more than once a month. I would use it at 6-8 weeks intervals, even. It takes time for collagen to build and you have to allow that time for skin to rec...

I've used Arnica in the past as a means to avoid bruising and I can't say that it did anything to help at all. You are correct - the bruising process plays a large role I the healing process. During m...

451: Your symptoms are completely normal at this stage of the game. Your skin will continue to tighten and turn a darker color of brown while tightening up, crinkling, and then peeling like crazy on d...

matt or 451, thanks for sharing. I have a question for you. What did you use to do the suction with after your subcision? Do you have a link to where you bought it? Thanks mate. I used an Oreck ha...

Believe it or not, I actually used an Oreck hand held vacuum sweeper nozzle to suction my face. I used one hand to hold the nozzle and the other to cup the end of the nozzle because the suction power ...

Rob: I haven't had any problems doing so. The Reviva Labs product will eventually absorb into your skin and you loose the shiny look. Matt

hey mr matt which reviva products did you use and where did you get the vitamin e? I currently have micro retina pump prescribed by the my dermatologist. I had 3 sessions of PDT and to be honest it he...

I apply vitamin E oil at night to my face after applying Retin-A.   In the morning, I apply the Reviva Labs product following by sunscreen.   By doing so, I have antioxidants and vitamins...

Rob: I would wait until the irritation from the Retin-A has subsided before you attempt a 25 percent TCA peel. This is a medium depth peel and it will remove a tremendous amount of visible sun damage ...

Rob: If you have prior sun damage, I would recommend that you consider doing a 25 percent TCA peel. Using Retin-A is a good primer for that type of peel. Both Retin-A and peels have made my skin look...
