I have had subcision to loosen some of the tethered scars and TCA cross to rebuild some of the holes. Many of my friends have commented that it has made some difference. I am not convinced it is very much difference, but am happy with the process so far. Next in the process is the CO2, erbium laser followed by Recell. I don't know how much to expect - I do know not to expect miracles but I am very hopeful for a reasonable improvement. Fingers crossed there will be no negative outcomes. I will keep you updated as I go.

Have you already spent $7000 just for subcision and TCA cross?

No that includes the laser and Recell process. My skin is even better now than these photo's. Unfortunately the practice sent me home with the wrong written instructions in my kit and when the anaesthetic wore off I followed these instructions and washed off the Recell sooner than I should have. This has effected my cheek areas the most with a scarred surface. It is still smoother than it was previously. On my nose and chin where the recall took you would never know I had laser
