    Looking at my scarring as of now it looks even worse. Is this normal? I am worried that my scarring is deeper due to the Re:Pair. My overall skin texture is worse as well. I know it has only been 1 week, but I hope I did the right thing for my acne scars.

    Thanks for responding. As for the density I am not sure of that. I will call and see. What is the proper density being used for acne scars. I have a few rolling/boxcar scars on my cheek. They seem somewhat deep to me. My doc said that at 70 MJ's it should do a pretty good job. I was told to watch it over the next few months because a lot can happen. Also to increase my results I had a light subcision done on the scarred cheek prior to the Re:Pair so I would only think that it will help with collagen and helped break-up the scar fibers holding it down, what do you guys think? Thank you so much for your time.

    I had the Re:Pair done for my acne scars a little over a week ago. Is it normal not to see any real improvment. All the swelling has went down and I see all the scars that I had before. Will it get better with time? The doc used the highest settings at 70 MJ's and I am still very red. But I am hoping that collagen growth with help lift up these scars and maybe really improve the smaller/shallower scars. Are the results progressive as they are with the Re:Store? Thanks -Schom
