Before Treatment
These images were from before/after the acne scar treatment with Dr. Taylor. The before images were "improved skin" after a series of e-matrix, spot treatment subcision and other non-invasive treatments. The after, I was wearing light mineral foundation, but you can see the major difference! My skin continued to improve since then. My scarring was much worse than these before pictures.
Post Visit
I've received image requests and are unable to send in messaging, so I've attached it to my review! These images are days 3-9 after the subcision, laser, prp, stem cells (on one side) and chemical peel on the nose.
Acne Scar Treatment That Works!
Dr. Mark Taylor and his team are amazing and I put my full trust in their hands. He’s extremely passionate about carefully assessing, not only each patient’s unique face, but each unique scar to provide an optimal treatment solution. I have lived with acne scars for over 25 years and have tried some pretty harsh treatments – including full face dermabrasion (literally cutting my face off) only to be disappointed and worse off by an inexperienced plastic surgeon (this was pre-realself.com). However, Dr. Taylor is not only a leader of the latest treatments and research for acne scarring, he is a trailblazer.
About 3 years ago (I thought I had written a post about his, but now realized it hadn’t posted), Dr. Taylor performed subcision, fraxel laser, PRP (using my own blood) and chemical peel (just to the unlasered areas) to my full face. Dr. Taylor was also undergoing a clinical trial for stem-cell therapy and applied it to half my face to compare the recovery and results. My results were astounding. It was the first time in my life that I had hope of improving the deep acne scars on my face. This procedure improved the scarring by about 85% (everyone will be different). The recovery time was a lot quicker than I thought it would be after seeing my face the first day. It looked like I was in a bad car accident, but by the next morning, the swelling had reduced greatly! I have a series of photos documenting the recovery time and improvements that I am happy to share.
Now, two days ago, I went in for a “refresh” and had a full-face Sky Walker laser procedure. Although I am only two days in, I can say that I am optimistic for an even greater improvement. After the procedure, I was very red and minor bleeding. The first night, my skin was itchy due to either the ointment or polysporin, but I was able to use an anti-itch ointment that helped the next day. I have very sensitive skin, so I tend to break out with little whiteheads from the ointment, but it goes away pretty quickly – especially when using the Omnilux Clear-U light (red & blue light) handheld device that I was able to purchase from Dr. Taylor’s Apothica shop located within his facility. They have all the best products needed on site which I LOVE and find so convenient. I will continue to document this procedure as well.
Dr. Taylor is committed to helping me along this painful journey and has achieved such a great improvement to my acne scarring. Family and friends have taken notice and cannot believe the difference in my skin. I confidently leave the house without wearing makeup and have become more comfortable talking about the devastating effects to the skin caused by acne and poor treatments by inexperienced surgeons. I will only see and refer Dr. Taylor for any skin-related procedures.
