the people that have had good results far outweigh the people that havent. Can you provide proof for your claim?

Does these "prominent" physicians have first hand experience treating patient suffering from bad dermabrasion results?   Here is an example: read this thread.. This member flew from Italy to the...

Your posts are truely inspirational Sword. I really wish you (and others who have suffered from dermabrasion) well for the future.

Hey Hopeful,   Keep that up and I will be over my head and think I am really a hero )   It used to be heart-breaking to see the demarcation lines in the mirror, but I never stopped believing...

Thank you Wynne.   Hopeful, bugs and others, yes its time to take back what is ours and enjoy it the way we want.    

The doctor minimized the risks and then tried to blame me when things went wrong.

Hi Bug,   What is the need to wear a hat and sweater? How about just a good sunscreen?   It's been 2.5 years and my cheeks have been red ever since, not to mention the scars look pretty mu...

Hey Hopeful,   You tell absolute truth about Butcher Yarborough. Acne.org has tens of thousands of readers, but I keep thinking how to expose what he did to people to the whole world. My contem...

Compare to my dark neck, my face only has a small fraction of pigment left and is always red. I don't hide my neck, so people clearly sees the demarcation before my jaw line and my hairline for that ...

Anyhow, I got a gf that thinks I'm hot stuff and friends that don't see or talk about my remaining scars. Leaf, I remember your pictures, you have much lighter skin tone than me (between II and ...

I am 22 years old. Yes, I am loosing confidence due to acne scarring. mz, Is that your picture in your avator? You look extremely cute. I should stop my urge to give you suggestions and expe...

tricia,   I am glad to hear your red spots has improved and you have way to control it. I hope you only cover the spots but not the whole face because your skin needs to breathe. While make up ...

Thanks tricia for the suggestion. I have had 3 vBeam, $400 / session, but it didn't seem to do much. I will save the money on a bigger turbo for my car instead   Beware of permanent make up, yo...

mz,   Some (too many!!) people are so critical of other's appearance, their words cut you like a knife and they really don't care. I have been there many times before. Although I complain about...

Thank you tricia   My scarring type was shallow icepicks with rough edges, dermabrasion smoothened the edges, but in person you can still see the all the little holes on my face. They were ver...

anyways, don't make dermabrasion out to be so pointless and a "life ruiner" just because you've had bad experience with it. A couple years ago, a caucasian member here (I think it was "meet pete")...

tryingstill, opportunity, mz43026, AmoALaura, Betty-Boop,   You people are angels. Thank you for taking the time to read my posts and for your understanding and support. It is much appreciate...

If you haven't yet, I suggest researching complications caused by demabrasion (or any skin resurfacing procedure).

mz,   my natural skin tends to hyperpigment from peel, so it will only make the demarcation even worse than it is now. I have tried bleaching cream such as triluma and others, but my natural ski...

obi,   Of course I remember you. You used to have a different screen name.   Every day I focus on my goals and do my best to block off humiliation (at my redness and demarcation around my f...

Between Nov 2004 and July 2005, Yarborough undermined lives of 4 type IV asian members here by giving us Kabuki masks. How many darker skin reported they suffered zero complications and recovered in ...

Thanks Keith.   Something amazing would be Yarborough being stopped for ruinning more peoples natural appearances.   How can you trust a character like Yarborough to realistically ambraded ...

Don't do it, expecially when you have darker skin. Dermabrasion plunged me into a world of darkness and permanent humiliation.   If your doctor:   - does not advice you against dermabrasion...

I have consent of yet another dermabrasion victim to describe her condition 1 year+ post op.   Hi Sword, i have a question for yourself, and would be very gratefull if you could answer it, you ...

B74,   why don't you guys start a class action suit?
