I had an old scar on my lip. Revision was out of the question. (see my picture). I was looking to camouflage it using tattoo makeup. Instead they offered me a non-surgical procedure.

The results were pretty good for three hundred bucks(see my picture).

Great review?

It looked like a bad scrape for about a week, then the scab came off and it looked pink, less noticeable than before. It took a while, may be a month or so for the pinkish colr to fade out.

Wow, they did an amazing job. I have a scar in the same area, except it ends right below my nose. How long did it take to heal? I'm trying to figure out what is the best option for me. Thanks.

Dear Sir,
Thank you very much for your information, maybe the skin needling is useful with my scar too.

They used something like a tattoo gun, put an anesthetic on and just scraped the scar off. When the scab came off, scar looked much smoother but pink and then after a while pink became skin color.
