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.

Restalyne silk (Dr. Morganroth)

Decided last minute to get one syringe of filler to see what it would do to my scars. Overall, I feel as if the area has lifted significantly (more dramatically so than after subcision). I do think that in some way it accentuates the textural problems which I think at this point are my biggest hurdles (very shallow, uneven, etc). One of the pictures below makes the scars look absolutely crazy--I don't think they look like this in normal lighting. Kind of unsure about next steps as I tend to overexamine and obsess over my skin to the point where I can't even tell if there's genuine improvement or my mind is playing tricks on me (I'm sure some of you can relate).

Underwent two rounds of subcision: first procedure...

Underwent two rounds of subcision: first procedure in February, second in April. I think the smaller scars are virtually unnoticeable but I'm not quite sure about a significant improvement in the large clustering of the larger boxcar (?) scars on my cheek. Friends/family indicate a 30-60% improvement but the jury is still out (although I acknowledge that I focus on them much more heavily than outsiders).
I tried my best to capture a variety of different angles and lighting (as you know these factors weigh heavily on how good you're feeling about your skin on any given day).
I'm due for another consultation with the same dermatologic surgeon (whom I trust based on his initial conservative approach) next week--I want to explore additional rounds of subcision, perhaps combined with a temporary filler (e.g. Restalyne, Juvederm). Petrified of lasers, so that is out of the question for now. Does anyone with similar scarring have any advice/feedback? Has anyone had any positive results with different/similar modalities?
