Great service and staff.

I have been dealing with acne and acne scars ever since I was a teenager. I was tired of having uneven skin tone so I decided to do something about it. I found Doctor Umar and went in for a consult.

He prescribed me some medicine for the acne which started working right away, and now I rarely break out. After a couple weeks I went in for a laser treatment for the acne scars, and I noticed a difference right after the first procedure. And every procedure after that, my skin has only gotten better.

Great review?

Glad you are seeing good results!

Do you happen to know what kind of laser he used, or what the name of the medicine he prescribed for your acne is?

He used Spectra laser for now, later he will start using Fraxel, and prescribed minocyclin(antibiotic), erythromycin and tretonin(topical solutions).

Wow, you guys are really hitting it hard it sounds like. Is the tretonin the generic version of Retin-A? If so you might want to check out our Retin-A community. It can be a little rough getting going with it, but once your skin adjusts its really great. The community members in there give some great suggestions on how to deal with the side effects.

Looking forward to hearing how things go as you progress through the treatment your doctor has laid out for you!
