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.

I had acne for about 4 years (High school yrs :( .Accutane took care of this in 10 month-I wish my doctor prescribed it earlier-However, I was left with 3 scars on my left cheek and I never even knew that plastic surgeons could do anything about them.[0.7 cm hypopigmented & indented scar]
I went last month to a local plastic surgeon who performed 'on spot' dermabrasion for free and told me he would charge me only if we saw ‘very significant’ improvement.I so trusted him. 10 days later I went to him again for a follow up appointment. The area was red & needed 1 more mm to reach 'no indentation' level .It became however,less hypopigmented...
The surgeon injected very little mount of filler and of course I saw an immediate result. Now I see no indentation at all but the area is still red(less than last week) but with even less hypopigmentation.
I am applying Petroleum creams and covering it when I go out. I will give it an 85% so far.
For pain..He injected a very littel amount of lidocaine prior to the procedure and i felt nothing.
I will keep you posted. Pray for me!

I had been 2 months now. I can confidently say that there isn't any indentation at all. The redness however is less by 40%.
Glad to read your comments and I am willing to share my experience because I feel I owe 'Dermabrasion'!
After 2 months I can see how difficult for someone to get the full face dermabrasion due to its final results are worth it.
I have seen pictures of people who did this and I have to say that it is a brave decision as it has both psychological and financial (time off work) liabilities.
My overall satisfaction is still high: 85%
Thanks for your wishes
