Scar revision time! TCA Cross 4/19/19

Watsup yall. Long time no review. So I've been busy and my skin has been great with minor breakout of like one pimple on my face here or there around the time of the month when I'm mensing. I'm so happy I decided to do accutane, because my skin has been clear and no more sore pimple breakouts on my face.
I'm left with ice pick and rolling scars. My dermatologists had no idea wtf #tcacross was so I just started doing treatments at home from a kit I found off of amazon. Below is the link of the 85% Trichloroacetic Acid I'm using:

PH balancer after I use the acid on my face:

Its actually pretty easy to use just have to make sure your skin frosts then use the neutralizer afterwards. I did my first session in the beginning of the month. I'm doing them in 2-3 week increments. I already saw a huge improvement on my scars from the first session. I'll try to post my updates.
This pic is the second session directly after.

Still using the cream, moisturizer face wash, and spf. Waiting for the months to pass so I can do some chemical peels and some real recovery for my scars.

White lady, very enthusiastic, answers all your questions, explains as much as possible, nice, knowledge, caring, and professional. Although sometimes trying to get an appointment is hard. I originally had my doctors office conveniently located at their other location in town, but it was even more worse trying to schedule an appointment at that location so they moved me to Kailua. Now I have to travel to Kailua to go and see a dermatologist and I live about 30 miles away, which is a pain. I care about my face though so whatever and I'm too lazy to go through all the trouble with my insurance.
