WORTH IT$4,000
I will be getting treatment for my acne scars soon! I had my consultation about 2 months ago and the doctor offered me Venus Viva for 2k or Mixto for 4K. He said the Venus would take 3-4 treatments and mixto only 1, and if I decided to come back for a touch up it would be 1k each. He was so nice and honest! I have my medication and creams he wants me to start taking before the procedure. (I can't remember if I start 1 or 2 weeks before? I have to call.) I also bought an all natural aquaphor alternative that I plan on using. I'm excited! 21 more days to go!
I hope this procedure works, last thing I tried was eMatrix if you guys want to check out that post I did. It worked slightly and my skin is smoother, but not aggressive enough for me. I am looking for something one and done. My options are also limited since I have dark skin.

hi Rokatelyn,
Firstly, you look beautiful. I am male, I have brown skin too but looks like I have much more wrinkles than you do. You don't really have a before picture uploaded, so I was wondering whether you had this procedure for wrinkles or for another reason?
How much of an improvement did you see? As I am planning on having this done for fine lines and wrinkles but I have heard good things and seen a few reveiws saying that most before and after pictures are not genuine or manipulated and the procedure really makes no visable changes following the healing.
Your opinion would really help me out as you have already had the procedure.
Regards

Surgery in 15 hours!

I'm really nervous actually, I've never undergone a surgery like this and am naturally really tense during situations like this.
I will definitely let you guys know how it is going and take lots of pics. From what I've heard I'm going to arrive and apply lidocaine and let it sit for an hour as well as be take a pill that knocks me out and then I'll be out and drowsy the rest of the day. Results coming soon!

I had Mixto 3 weeks ago and am very disappointed. It did nothing for my wrinkles like all the reviews said it would. It was a waste of money. I went back for my one week check up and the surgeon told
me that my face will not look any different in the future. All I read about was how your collage would begin to rebuild soon. Very unhappy.

Procedure and first day!
rokatelynNovember 24, 2016
Hey guys! So I went through the proceedure, I'm so proud of myself lol. Anyway, I got there and they gave me a Valium, then took me to a resting room where they put numbing cream on my face and then shut out the lights so I could rest. Then a few minutes later they put me in the proceedure room where the doctor then gave me a shot, which I was not expecting. As I started to fall asleep, he injected something into my face in about 7 different places which sucked. I hate needles. :( After that all I can remember is the sound of the laser, but I didn't feel anything. When I woke up, his assistant was watching over me, then walked me to back to the resting room. She showed me how to wash my face, then sent me on my way with my mom lol.
Anyway my face was never really hurting. I look like a burn victim that it punched in the face 10 times lol, but it doesn't hurt.

Great! Please update your photos too - love to see your results!
How long after the laser treatment before you can have the Subscision?
I created another post for that survey so hopefully others can find it!
