Be careful of doctors offering Subcision

What can you do about fresh pits?

Do you think straight up Vaseline would work or should I order some castor oil from amazon? Any bran silica that works well? Also what do you think of comfrey balm? Thank you once again.

Derminator for my scars?

3 hours ago, Ouhon said: 10%? I saw some peoples getting 90% improvement From derminator? I'd say impossible. @siriuslee @beautifulambition or anyone else what are your thoughts?

Derminator for my scars?

Derminator will give you very little results. It will improve texture/maybe give you (10%?) results after a year. You need subcision + filler as your first step and you will see great results imo.

Suggestions on scar treatment?

Your scars are mild. I'd say start with a round of subcision + filler or suction just to see how much they lift. If you can't find nokor then go for cannula or whatever should offer. Tca cross shou...

Still can't get rid of scars after two full fraxel treatments and accutane (pics included)

@EvidentNancy Ideally I would say sub + filler if done correctly. The only problem is (IIRC) that once you get it filled you should probably wait at least 6-12 months before getting another subcisio...
