i am considering doing this next October. i was a bit worried reading some other reviews, but the difference in your skin is nothing less than DRAMATIC! as a person who also suffers w/acne scars, i can relate to how it can....make you so insecure. you look incredible! thank you for sharing so much of your experience w/me!

Hi, your result looks really cool! I am also Asian. Is each procedure costing you $3000 or are they together $3000?

Had my second procedure exactly two weeks ago. It was a TCA Peel + Mixto + Subcision, and it was free. Check it out.

Its been about 4 weeks since your last laser, how do you feel now? Do you see improvement between this one and your first one?
Thanks!

Pretty much exactly two months since I had the treatment. I added two more photos that I took last night, when my scars are at their worst after a long day:
As you can see, left side still pretty much the same (I'm still wondering why the left side resolved so damn well) whereas there is still room for improvement on the right, but it's definitely getting a bit better. I also have a bit of active acne still ongoing, but it appears to be on its way out, as far as I can tell.
There are some days where they look worse. For instance, on the left side of my face, a slight crater may show up at the end of the day, and on the right it'll look a bit messier, but overall this is generally how they look at their worst.
I scheduled my touch-up for July 28. After consulting with Dr. Rahimi some more, I have confirmed that it is, indeed, basically another regular Mixto treatment (in fact, he said he would be going more aggressively on my right side than last time), except he'll be attacking only the scars and not the entire face. He also said any subsequent treatments, if I would want any, would be $500 each. However, considering that I'll be starting grad school, I don't think I'll have time for more treatments until at LEAST winter vacation, so yeah.

Thanks for keeping up with the updates!! Your improvement looks amazing, how much pertcentage of improvement do you think you got so far? At this point is there still microswelling or is that gone?
July 3, 2012
I think the microswelling went away after about a month.
I think, so far, the percentage of improvement has been about 70% on my left and 30% on my right. There are still portion on my left that very much bother me, and my right can obviously use more work, so I am looking forward to my second treatment at the end of July.

Hello,
Just wondering how your 2nd treamtment went and what you noticed on your three month mark. I heard you heal faster when you get a 2nd treatment, hopefully thats the case for you :)

Yes, I took my second treatment on July 28. It was actually a 20% TCA peel, then the Mixto (which was done much more aggressively), and then a pretty aggressive subcision (I heard a lot of popping noises when he did it).
I am actually still somewhat swollen, more so than last time, but the peeling of the skin went a lot faster than last time. I plan to post a picture maybe 10-14 days after treatment, since all of the swelling (or most of it, at least) would be gone by then.

You are having so much improvement.
I will go to see David Rahimi MD.
