I'm a 30 Yr Old Female That Had a Lot of Deep Acne Scars - Englewood Cliffs, NJ

Just noticed you had a couple more treatments. Thanks for letting us know and keep us updated on your progress. Thanks

Thank you !! I at first didn't see results because I we already dealing with self esteem issues until people were complimenting me ... Once I put the pictures with before and after I was so excited n happy . Recovery isn't bad at all . My skin felt like I had bad sunburn in which the doctor gave me a moisturizer and face wash for free . You have to use sunblock for a week n not expose the areas to sun . Very little brusing too which was great , and u can wear makeup 1 week later . The do use a numbing cream or injections to numb the are you will be having the procedure done but I must admit it's very uncomfortable. They now have the patients go under anesthesia but you would need to be accompanied by someone to get it . I unfortunately was on my own . They only bad was a day or two later u start to brake out where ever you had the procedure done but #1 rule don't pick on it just you the face wash n moisturizer n let it clear itself .

Thank you . It take time to see really good results but worth the wait ;) . I had subscision and prp which was for the really deep scars in May which was almost $1650 and in June and November I had the infini $895 but I must also mention that I only had my forehead done . It's different for the whole face or cheeks etc..

I only had my forehead done and it was $895 for infini and I also has subscision and prp for the most deep scaring which was almost $1,650

Subscision and prp was in May and the infini was in June n by choice I had another in November

No he hasn't but the pictures are not too clear in showing my scars but I had a lot of deep holes . What is softening of scars ? Any other info you can share with me is great so I can mention to him when I see him again ? Thank you

Did you see the first picture I posters on my profile ?

Softening of scars basically just means blurring of scars (they're still visible but not as stark looking.) TCA CROSS (not peel) is the pretty much the most successful treatment for deep acne scars, especially ice pick types. It's a pretty simple procedure and usually works better on individual deep scars better than any laser. It's trichloroacetic acid (high concentration up to 100%) placed directly into the each scar using an applicator that looks like a toothpick. It causes a chemical cauterization that slowly closes the scar. It's usually done in a series of 3-6 treatments. It should only be done by a professional, especially with high concentrations. I've been getting it done myself, at the same time as fractional c02 and I am getting results (even though most of my scars are boxcar type.) You don't have to have laser with it, just so you know. Anyway, I had this one deep ice pick scar right between my eyebrows that I had excised in 2013. That made it less deep but wider. After 3 TCA Cross with the laser just recently, it is gone. I'm planning on 3 more treatments because I have a face full of scars. There is a lot of info. on TCA Cross, just do a google search. You can private message me, if you wish.

Yes, I did see all of your photos.
