Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

6 months later...
Hey guys, sorry for not posting in awhile.
It took about a month (if not longer) for the redness to fade from my face.
6 months post, I can see no obvious difference in my scarring :/
Onto the next treatment...

Still red (but much better)
Hey guys! I'm 24 days post now -- my skin is still red (specifically on the cheeks) with track marks from the laser, but the texture is mostly normal and I can cover it with concealer and powder foundation.
I'm not sure about the results yet and think it's really too soon to say. Just ready for my skin to not be red anymore.
The healing process so far has lined up with what Dr. Lin told me I might expect.

Healing progress - level 3 is NOT for the faint of heart
I got the procedure done on Wednesday. It's now Sunday night and I am still VERY red, with noticeable scars.
I'm not concerned because I was warned by Dr. Lin that healing would take quite a bit longer with the level 3 Matrix treatment. Hopefully I'll be getting what I paid for.... (the level 2 was only $370 in comparison to the $1200 I paid for level 3).
These photos were taken Friday and Saturday night, respectively. Today was the first day I woke up with my skin looking a little better instead of worse.

Provider Review
I really appreciated how smart, down to earth, and precise Dr. Lin was. No bullshit, and I really trusted him (even though I found him on Groupon, lol). He's also a medical doctor who owns his own practice outside of cosmetic services, treating patients with skin cancer and other issues. For him, cosmetic stuff was more of a hobby -- and I definitely appreciated that about him and felt like he knew what he was doing. UPDATE: unfortunately, 6 months later, the treatment had no obvious results for my acne scars.
