How to go on with downtime of treatments

It can be frustrating. In order to have the money to pay for a treatment, you need a job and don't have time to do it. If you have no job, you have the time but not the money. I usually take a couple ...

The tca cross spot took like 8 months to heal. I'm not sure my skin can handle 100% tca. I had 3 fraxel treatments, 6 or 7 derminators, 2 subcisions on the cheeks, 1 on the temple, and voluma. I'm not...

Other Than Faked Photoshopped Pics, i don't believe there is LEGIT treatment for acne scars

Meh. I used to feel the same way, but 80% improvement is possible. My pictures are not faked and show a couple scars that have been nearly removed completely with just 2 subcisions. Some people will ...

Why do people go to Nelson Lee Novick

I realize I have hyped up Novick on this board, but I have no problem with people criticizing him. For me, it was refreshing to experience a doctor tell it like it is, and actually manage improvement ...

Why do people go to Nelson Lee Novick

I would only travel so far to see him. He is a good doctor but there are probably others that can do what he can. Still, technique does matter and I'd personally rather go with someone I trust than s...

Anyone ever treat with Dr Jeffrey Rapaport (in NJ)?

I know that he used to do subcision and fraxel at the same time, but I guess he moved on to infini (which is a good sign). Like BA said, you don't have to do exactly what he says, and the consult is f...

Anyone ever treat with Dr Jeffrey Rapaport (in NJ)?

I've talked to him a few times and I like him. The only reason I chose Dr. Novick over him is because Rappaport likes to use energy devices I didn't want.

Filler for acne scars

I think the term filler can be misleading to people. You aren't literally filling the hole. It's place in acne scar treatments is to replace destroyed volume, or used with subcision. TCA and possibl...

Whos the best filling doctor in the US

It's hard to say. We can only really judge based off of the impression they've left on the internet. Dr. Novick and Rullan seem to have the best reputations.

Subcision vs Punch Elevation

Subcision works by going below the scar, and cutting the bands tethering the skin down, allowing them to "float to the surface". I think you are referring to excision, which involves cutting the scar ...

Does pride come before subcision?

I agree with the other posters here that subcision will be of little benefit to you. The best outcome of a subcision will make deep scars more or less the same as yours. I think that beautician was ju...
