I would like to know if I should go to my second round of Bellafill and subcision after 5 weeks of my first session? I am still seeing my scars. My doctor, I was so blessed to have a fantastic, I'm not complaining about him I'm just worried that I still see the scarring and I'm wondering if in 5 weeks when I go back to see him if I should get another subcision and more bellafill?

Answer: Bellafill Thank you for your photos. Bellafill continues to work for several months after injection to stimulate your body to fill the scars in with collagen. There are also some studies showing volumization even after a year. 3 days is too soon for your final results to show. You can continue treatment or hold off to see if you continue to improve. Bellafill can be done at any time and over multiple treatments. Hope this helps!

Answer: Scars and Bellafill fillers You have shallow box car scars and possibly some atrophic and rolling scars. The original papers with subcision in 1995 showed that one needs 2-8 session for acne scar improvement - the number of sessions needed are extremely variable, depending on the insight of the patient, their expectations and end goals, the SKILL SETS OF YOUR PLASTIC SURGEON or DERMATOLOGIST and the type of scars, along with patient co-morbidities (active acne, race, smoking etc.). Follow your specialist recommendations, knowing that maximal collagen stimulation needs 2-3 months at least. Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
