Finding the right doctor and treatment can be a journey in itself. I highly recommend that you take your time and do your research using professional opinions, patient reviews and credible studies. I ...

your ice pick scars from tca cross came back ?? thats weird idk i still feel doing 5-10 will help I only saw improvement to very small ice pick scars and scarred pores from TCA Cross. Some of them ...

Hate to say it but your skin will look great after it peels. The results will fade in time, as your skin returns to normal. To maintain the results, you'll have to continue doing peels. Peels simply d...

Hey guys, When you stretch your skin and the scars are able to completely smooth out does this mean they are less tethered? I've read about somethin like this mentioned here before but can't seem to f...

Here are doctors answers on how long the results should last: Personally, I don't think it's worth the investment. Any lifting you *might* experience would be temporary. That's a pricey temporary fix...

Ultherapy is quite popular right now in SoCal, and tends to be expensive. I have read a bit about it being used differently on acne scars to make them appear less deep. Example: I think the combina...

Is Rahimi planning to do Ultherapy, Mixto and subcision in one session? Did he explain the benefits of Ultherapy to you? I am curious to know how that can improve atrophic scars.

Like you said in another thread, Recell helps with the surface. I have never seen any proof of it helping atrophic scars that reside in the dermis. If anything, I believe it speeds healing and can imp...

Jenny,   How are you doing? Any progress with your healing? I hope you have been able to locate a doctor who can help you.

I am going to be bluntly honest. Your skin looks awesome. I think you are far too hard on yourself. Excision can fail and cause much worse scarring. In your case, I see nothing to excise and it makes ...

I agree with Blahblah. I don't understand why your doctor recommended needling or Dermapen on raised scars. I would think it could make matters significantly worse. I also can't tell if those are actu...

Just wanted to post some updated photos that I took outside a month or two ago. I must say -- laser can lead to improvement. I do have one dark pitted scar on my left cheek that seems resistant to tre...

I don't know about you but I would be really upset if my doctor released my phone number to potential patients. I don't think it is realistic to expect that. I know I also refused to allow my doctor t...

Rob,   Have you had that checked by a doctor? It could be something serious. I work with someone with a similar flesh colored bump under his eye. In his case, it turned out to be a form of skin...

I think you need to see your dermatologist. From what I understand, hypopigmentation can occur in darker skin from retin-a, hydroquinone, or any kind of peel that can strip melanin from your skin. It ...

Sorry but peels are not going to improve deep pits, if that is your goal. If you are hoping to improve pigment and clogged pores, peels can help. I wouldn't buy them off eBay though. I would use a pro...

Hey SLee,   Congrats on your improvement. Your skin looks so much better. Where are you getting your needling done? I started dermastamping and seems to be softening my texture issues. However ...

I think it is odd that any hospital would claim they can cure your scars over email, especially when they've never evaluated your scars in person and scar treatments don't work for everyone. Really st...

I think he/she is saying that because lemons are acidic just like an AHA. Going the water and honey route, you are basically letting nature take its course with natural remedies for healing and detoxi...

Zavvi,   Scroll up. He answered your questions already

For your type of scarring, which is very similar to how mine looked (see my gallery), I would go with fractional co2 laser and then dermastamping. I don't recommend wasting your time with peels as I h...

Hydroquinone only slows the production of melanin in your skin. You should apply it to problem spots. I have used it on and off over the last couple years before and after scar treatment. I only saw b...
