Am i blind? I don't see an actual "after" picture of the healed scar.

Before and after pictures would be helpful.   Considering he had traditional Co2 laser on fitzpatrick type III and a few of the excisions failed with one scar turning out worse, I wonder how his ...

Hmmm... /> There is nothing special about a multi-layered technique. By definition, Total FX refers to the combination of both Active FX and Deep FX, each of which can be used in one or more passe...

One of the non-acne scars that was easy to pinpoint was on my nose, and it was from an auto accident when I was about 20. They did Re:pair on my nose and it was almost gone after the 1st Re:Pair and ...

These aren't really red scars. They're like purplish, and I think from the blood. Like not physical scar, but purplish color =/.   Without a picture, I can only assume you're suffering from hyp...

1) Yes, they looked worse. 2) Saw no improvement after waiting 4 months. Some scars remained permanently enlarged. My skin kind of caved between small ice pick scars that were close together, so that...

Hey there, TokyoGirl, No, she doesn't perform laser in her offices. She was happy to give me a referral to a doctor who does perform laser. But at her prices for punch floats, and the peel afterward...

I'm really glad you were able to clear that issue up for me, TokyoGirl. I had actually wondered how long the results of a mid-level Obagi Blue peel would last, because I know they can't last forever. ...

Tony, It's extremely rude to hijack someone else's thread like this.

Hey TokyoGirl, Thanks for your input! I have to say that I am certainly appreciative of the respectful, informed responses of those who replied to my original post here on acne.org. To answer your...

If you've seen such great improvement from your derm, I would trust her then, and give a blue peel a try. You really don't have anything lose by trying it. While I have seen improvement from laser, no...

Just a quick update. Today marks the 4 week mark since the Ultrapulse / Fraxel:Repair. Under one eye where they performed the MaxFX is still pretty pinkish/red and I was wondering if putting the 4% H...

If you're seeing improvement already, then that's a good thing. Your first treatment just makes me more curious about how Laviv works.   Thanks for sharing this. Keep us updated on your progress....

ADD-ON: Duh, I just realized you said silicone injections, and were not referring to many of the popular fillers today. It is my understand that silicone injections can lead to problems years down th...

Done by the right doctor, fillers are a great temporary solution. You can see improvement for 6-12 months. I don't believe in peels for treating acne scars. Did your derm say how many peels would b...

Interesting. Is there a reason why he did Laviv before subcision? I was under the impression that most doctors do subcision and then fillers to fill the empty space. Or, did you get Laviv for another ...

"Cosmetic surgery." It's a different but similar org. Thanks. I actually did figure that out after I posted, went to his site and then the other board's site. There is however a major differen...

He is board-certified in both dermatology and plastic surgery, which I think is somewhat of a rarity. Did you actually verify both certifications? Just curious because I could only find him certif...

interesting. I just asked a follow up question for more details.   He replied: Dott. Matteo Tretti Clementoni Plus 19 hours ago SCAAR Fx is only for thick wide burn or traumatic scar. Total F...

Hey DRaGZ, How much improvement have you seen to date to deep, ice pick scars following your Mixto treatment? Thanks

The main piece of information is exactly how deep can the Deep FX penetrate. These are my numbers, Active FX = .3mm Deep FX = ???? Scaar FX = 4.0mm FraxelRepair = 1.7mm Ive dont research on the...

I wonder if he's referring to Deep FX combined with Active FX.   He is. More info at 25:25 of the following webinar.   Great link. Thank you

I posted a question in the comments section, let's see if he gets back.   He replied to your question with: Dott. Matteo Tretti Clementoni Plus 13 hours ago This application goes to deep for ...

Collegeboy84, You remind me so much of my husband. He has the same kind of scarring too. While he does suffer from mild breakouts, I do think his scars are related to facial hair. He plucks too, and ...

I was just kidding. LOL Haahaa?? Add-on: I mean, I was kidding about the grilling part. I felt really bad for saying anything. I'm relieved to know we haven't offended you. Your contributions to th...
