Candela Quadralase C02 - Troy, OH
UPDATED FROM Buggahroo
4 years, and 4 treatments.
WORTH IT$600
I had my 4th tx done in summer of '15. Here is how it's looking now. ???? I think it's definitely improved a lot from my "before" pictures ! (I only took pictures of the one side of my face with the worst scars for this update...will update with both sides later !)
UPDATED FROM Buggahroo
well its been a couple years since my 1st tx ....
Hi everyone,
I got my 1st laser treatment in late 2011 and it is now 2014 and I figured I could post some new pictures. Ive done a total of 3 treatments so far and I'm definitely doing more in the near future ! I do see a big difference with my before and afters.Sometimes all I see when I look in the mirror are my scars... well thats an understatement... ALL I ever see when I look in the mirror are my scars. And fellow sufferers know where I'm coming from. But seeing my before pics and comparing them just shot up that hope inside of me... its just a matter of getting more treatments done and I will (hopefully) be confident with my appearance again someday. :)

Thank you so much for sharing your journey and you are right...you are beautiful. I am going through the same thing you are and have dealt with my acne scars for years and years and have spent so much money. The only thing if I can suggest anything to you is that I have seen the biggest difference using retina-A. I have done the lasers and recently tried venus viva in 3 separate treatments and had seen no improvement. I'm glad you have seen improvement with the lasers, but I felt it made my skin worse. On a bright note, Retina-A for me has been a complete blessing...it really has transformed my skin and pores. If you haven't used it before, just know you only apply a pea size amount all over your face at night where I particularly pay attention to the areas of my scars. Let the retina A absorbed into your skin for about 5 minutes. The other benefit of this product is that it truly is an anti-ager...as it hyper exfoliates the skin. After 5 minutes, apply your moisturizer of choice. I personally use Neem oil..which may sound odd putting oily on your skin..but it actually does the opposite and moisturizes the face and fights breakouts at the same time. It's important to moisturize over the retina A because your face will burn if you doing moisturize on top of it. You are very sweet to share your journey and I hope your skin continues to look better and better!

Hi there... Still doing good, thank you. I haven't taken the time to take new pics yet but maybe I should do that and compare to see if there has been anymore changes. Other than that I don't think there is anything new to mention. But thank you for keeping in touch!
