Still not sure
I need to wait until the red is gone from my face to rate dermabrasion and for my skin to heal up from the breakouts. It has been one month and 3 days. The red and the breakouts are a draw back though. In my opinion. I'll give my final rating in another month. I need to see my face with all the acne and redness gone to be able to see the true results.

I've been diligently following your posts. I'm 2 weeks out from my procedure and have been cleared for makeup, however, it is just too drying for my taste. Are you only wearing powder makeup? How red are you still? I'm still bright red with a lot of uneven skin tone.

I only wear powdered makeup. I'm afraid to try the other in fear of it clogging my
Pores and causing more acne.
My skin is still red and i too
have uneven skin tone but
not like it was. Your skin tone
will get better as time passes
by. Have you had any acne and can you still see your scars? I can see all of mine.

I haven't had any acne. You wrote that you were using Vaseline - I used Neosporin - not sure if that made a difference. I can see a few scars, but nothing too worrisome. I'm about 2 weeks behind you so that might change. Thank you for your reply!
January 25, 2014
Neosporin? Did you have a full face dermabrasion that runs around 2000 ? I really caked the vasiline on in fear of my face scaring from the scabs. I'm sure that is the cause of my breakouts. Makes sense. What kind of scars did you have? What do you know about the redness and how long will i have to deal with it? I can't wait for it to go away. Thanks for keeping in touch with me.

Yes - my dermabrasion cost $2700 so I assume it was the same as yours. I too caked on the ointment for fear of scarring. I had/have boxcar and rolling scars. What about you? The redness should last for a total of 3 months or so. My doctor said by then, I'd be able to get a good idea as to how well the procedure worked. Between 6-12mo, I should see the final results!

I was wondering how you are doing after your dermabrasion. Please keep me posted.

Kimmie06,
Did see any improvements on your scars...or they just the same as was before the procedure..from the the pic it is difficult to see your scars..
January 24, 2014
Yes i can see every scar like i had nothing done. My doctor told me that they woukd be less visable that my overall appearence would be much better but i can't tell yet due to all the red and uneven skin tone.

February 7, 2014
How did your dermabrasion turn out? Are you happy with the way things are looking so far?
February 7, 2014
Hello , it's been a week since I did my dermabrasion , my face is red with some bruises. I can see my scares like i did nothing may be with slight improvements on forehead , to be frank I'm not impressed with results so far , hopefully it will better soon.
January 29, 2014
Roshdi hi! I can tel you that i still can see my scars. My doctor told me that my overall appearance will be better that my scars will be less noticable. Before i had my dermabrasion i thought that theywould
January 29, 2014
Sorry about that. Anyway i thought they would be gone. I guess i misunderstood what my doctor was telling me. My skin is fair too.
January 29, 2014
Thank you kimmie
So how do you feel how much did u need to go in public ? I have 10 days off from work would that be enough ?
In general , do you think it is worth it
January 30, 2014
Roshdi, You will still be very red after 10 days. You'll beable to wear camaflouge makeup (not sure how its spelled) and that will help cover the red. I'm told it takes several months to see the final results. It takes time for your skin to heal and the collagen to build back up and once that happens your scars will be less noticeable :) I can't give you my honest opinion yet on weather i think it's worth it or not. I had it done Dec. 19th and it is only Jan. 29th. Give me another month and i should beable to answer you better. I hope you get the results you are wanting. Please keep me posted. I'll do the same :)
