Severe Scarring After Active Fx for Stretch Marks - Bogota, Colombia

  • Not Worth It
  • Cost: $200
  • Bogota

Hello, I had a session of active fx for pregnancy...

Hello, I had a session of active fx for pregnancy stretch marks on flanks, lower back and thighs and I was left with severe scarring after the procedure. Four days after the treatment the stretch marks formed scabs, which when they came off left scars. The ones on my thigh are the worst because they are a lot wider than before. My heart is broken.

Please do not have active fx on your stretch marks or you may be disappointed. At least look carefully into the possible side effects of the treatment you wish to have. Just one session of active fx messed up my skin.

Great review?

Hi Britt, thank you for your comment. No, my doctor did not say anything about scarring before the treatment. I knew it when it happened to me :(

HI anon, 

Oh that is so sad to hear. You went in to get help for scaring only to gain more scaring I'm so sorry. Did your doctor happen to mention that it could make scaring worse? 

Thanks,

-Britt
