Okay troops. I haven't been back to update in a while and thought I should.   I had my 6th ematrix done on Monday. (October 11th) It was done the same as my 5th treatment. We did an IPL first a...

I've been following this thread and have decided to go ahead with Ematrix. Special thanks to Sassy for her detailed experiences.   I've got some significant acne scarring, especially on my cheek...

Hey Tomster, I had already typed up a super long reply and then I hit some wacky key on the Mac and lost it all Durn it.   Anyhoo, have you decided to go ahead then? When do you think you'll go...

Hey Tomster, glad you came back to post. Sounds like you're going to get the info you need, however, I'm sure you already know this, don't let the Dr. talk you into something you're not 100% on board...

Oh, thank you Some on these boards have not had success w/ the eMatrix, but the same can be said for other treatments, including Re:Pair. I chose this treatment specifically due to it's minimal downt...

Hidy Ho everyone!   Back to give another update on my eMatrix RF Sublative Rejuvenation treatments. I was able to get my Sept. 7th appt. bumped up to last Monday (August 30th) so that's why I'm ...

Treatment 3 (performed on August 9th)   Well, instead of reposting the same old, same old (Day 1, 2, 3 ect.) Thought I'd just give a quick (albeit NOT BRIEF) summary about my 3rd treatment. &nbs...

Oh I hope you're able to see some improvements. I've noticed a couple of my icepick scars aren't as deep. Do I look flawless? No, not by any stretch of the imagination. I still think I'm gonna need ...

Treatment 2, Day 6/7   Hello all I didn't update yesterday because quite honestly, I was too stinkn' tired to get on the ol' computer after working all day!   Most of my scabs have flaked o...

Yeah Dudlely, you're right. eMatrix is not really a laser/light treatment, but it's not really a peel either. It's rather a hybrid of the two. Since it's a relatively new treatment, the lack of fir...

Good luck on your journey! I'll be reading your posts! Thank you for explaining in such detail!   God Bless Thanks Sub State! I'm beginning to wonder if anyone else is reading these posts! I'm...

Treatment 2, Day 4   Not a whole lot to report. Most of the visible swelling is gone and my skin is beginning to flake. I emailed pics to my esthetician and she thought things looked great. S...

Treatment 2, Day 3   Didn't get the chance to update last night.   Healing is actually going better than it did the first time around. I don't have as much redness and the grid dots (scabs)...

Treatment 2, Day 2 update:   Sorry for the delay. I just purchased a children's boutique and I've been up there working all night.   I have to say I'm not having as much swelling or redne...

Hello all!   I'm going to do my best to inform y'all of my 2nd treatment and at the same time answer some of the questions that were posted. (I'm posting this information here and in the Light/La...

Wow! You seem to be healing fast. Did your grid marks stay on shorter or longer this time? Did you have the same type of reaction to this treatment that you did to your last?

The micro laser peel was okay. It really is just equivalent to 4-5 microdermabrasions. I ended up getting a couple pimples from the aquaphor and I also had an allergic reaction to it that caused unu...

Thanks for the reply! I'm 35, so it looks like we're in this whole "Let's fight acne scars and aging at the same time!" battle together! I agree that aging takes it's toll.   I was surprised a...

Trying Hard, You're gonna think I'm an idiot, but I tried looking for your pictures again and nothing is coming up in the gallery, even when I do a search using your name. Either I'm computer inept o...

Trying Hard! Glad to have ya back. What treatment level did she use? As you probably saw, we only did a treatment B at 48 mj. I went back to my retin a couple of days ago and I think my nightly app...

Just wanted to give another quick update.   No real changes from Day 6 except that my skin is returning to normal. I had a rough texture to the treatment areas for a few days, which I'm assuming...

Day 6   Most redness is gone, for the most part, and the swelling is gone as well.   Not as itchy today and I would say that the majority of the scabs have flaked off. There's a stubborn pa...

Day 5 update:   I'd say approximately 50% of my lil' scabbies have fallen off. The redness is fainter by the day and the swelling is gone. However, I will note that you can still see the grid s...

Day 4 update:   I'm totally flaking out!   Less redness today and the swelling is almost completely gone. It's SUPER hard to not want to pull off these little flakies, but I shall resist! ...

Day 3 And the Matrix RF saga continues   Not much change today. I'm less "puffy" and the redness continues to decrease. Since the kiddos were harassing the hubby and I about seeing Toy Story 3...
