Would love to know what she did as well! What treatments. It to me looks like multiple laser treatments.

Dr. Steven Mandrea!! He is working with me to get my life back after a botched excision that sunk my whole cheek. He did subcision plus filler and I am going back to him for the Co2 laser,

Yes, please share on the fat transfer. It still appeals to me as going every single year for the rest of my life getting Restylane is not appealing. Fat transfer if it takes is lifelong if I understan...

I had subcision + filler which helped some to lift tethered scarring. I was hoping for a miracle, but it is no miracle cure. Think it helped lift some and then now I need to try blending in the scarri...

Yes, I have a terrible salicylic acid allergy. I say clear of all products with it. Causes more cystic acne, redness, horrible for me.

I stay clear from anything with salicylic acid. After a couple years in my early twenties using it, it was too harsh, caused more cysts and just exclude it from my routine. I think I am definitely all...

Monikah - feel the same. How did your journey turn out? Did you see Dr. Mandrea. That is who I am going to now.

Just following and saw MichiganMom your subcision photos - how did it all turn out? Who did you go to? Did you get it resolved. I just did subcision one month ago - think it made an improvement...all ...

What was your experience? I have found Dr. Steven Mandrea a wonderfully kind Dr. and the only one who has helped me so far. I wish I had gone to him from the beginning. Instead, he is trying to fix a ...

 I appreciate you caring to respond GetSmart. The actual sutures healed and i have a line, which is not entirely the issue. The underlying tissue and structure around the line sunk leaving...

Thank you for your perspective. Yes, you are probably right, once it had turned into an indented pencil eraser size, only option was the eliptical excision that leave a line. My skin around it is quit...

Did subcision with filler a month ago. It worked ok - not a miracle cure. The filler used in my case was Restylane.

Cystic acne - deep, painful and I always messed with them with poking, prodding, harsh chemicals and nothing but scarring to show for it.

That is so kind of you. Yes, have lost nights of sleep and have been quite miserable with the self-blame for 6 months now. Your drawing is perfect. It was a traumatic, way too big excision. He should ...

mid-40s - and yes collagen loss at this age and being so invasive - didn't think about the result. It is a one inch gash - was 6 stitches. If he ever told me how much he would cut or how big, never wo...

As it is the apple of the cheek, I needed to get filler in first to lift it up and now will do CO2 laser to help with the discoloration around the scar and the excision scar line. Hoping to smooth out...

Just beating myself up about a botched excision and trying to mentally, emotionally, and physically recover from it. Gave up a pinhole/ice pick scar on the apple of my cheek for a gash across my face ...
