I just received a skin subcision and a TCA Cross from Dr Ben Behnam and it's the first day and I already see improvement. I am going to follow up with photos before and after. I was adamant to see him and I am quite pleased with how our interaction went, the staff seemed quite friendly and we covered alot of ground that I've used other treatments that didn't get close to as effective to the success I see in targeted areas that I do now. I am looking forward to one more subcision + TCA cross treatment with him.

It's not exactly where I want it to be, after the peeling occurred I saw improvement. I guess I wouldn't have been as disappointed if I didn't shell out 1300 for it to not be closer. I'll have faith in the process like I keep telling myself, I wish it would have remained where it was during the bruise and swelling of the first few days but without the bruising. I can believe collagen will keep producing beneath. I can still see all the scarring from post treatment and really had higher hopes that subscision plus TCA would have a greater impact on my main priority scar. I'll keep you posted as time reveals more. I did not receive any hyperpigmentation from these treatments.

I would say the subcision was a 100% success, the TCA cross he did say would require more appointments so just for clarity I am satisfied I just want it to be perfect now like anyone would. I do see a drastic difference in the depression of my face in that area, which was crucial to making it appear better. The surface appearance he did let me know would require multiple treatments. I stand by my decision to take Dr. benham on and I am not going to go anywhere else to solve this.

Taken on the 22nd, one minor scab on the subcision entry peeled off that I was unaware of and I will begin derma rolling with a .5 to boost collagen reproduction SS recommended. Will need a second treatment, but I'm overall happy for see the results somewhat emerging.

One of my friends saw a noticeable difference in the overall quality of my skin on this side, which prompted me to take another pair of photos. I do believe that the subcision has increased the plumpness that was hindered by scar tissue beneath the surface. I will start proactively using my .5 dermal roller, starting tonight

I had gotten this treatment done twice, and altogether I saw temporary results likely caused by the subcision. I can't really say I yielded the results I felt that I did after the procedure. Once my facial swelling went down and settled my scarring doesn't look much different. I would still say that Ben is an amazing doctor, I just can't vouch my results as being an extraordinary improvement.
