It has been a year since my surgery. I'm am beyond grateful to Dr.Peng for my results. The photos show the scar without makeup. I feel confident and like a new person.

did you put on silicone gel sheets?

Wow! You got great results!

I am so happy for you! You look amazing. It must feel absolutely wonderful to have what you considered a disfigurement completely removed. I suffer from acne scarring on both cheeks and have undergone several different treatments with little to no improvement. I research and read daily hoping to find the "miracle" for my scarring. I am planning on scheduling a consultation in the month and praying I will be given suggestions of a treatment plan with an outcome of results as amazing as yours. Once again, Congratulations on a beautiful result!

How did you find Dr Peng and what type of closure did she use. My daughter has two scars from a dog bite and the dr performed surgery on them. I wish I would have never allowed him to do so. My daughter now has train tracks on her face. We are going to try laser first and then maybe scar revision. You said the laser made your scars look worse first? What type of co2 laser was used on your scar. Thank you for sharing and I am happy you have a beautiful result. Dr Peng did the best scar revision I have ever seen.

Amazing, and congratulations on your unnoticeable scar! Dr. Peng must be really good. I can certainly relate as I have a 2.5 wide scar on my forehead that extends into my scalp. Looking to get some work done on it this year. Congratulations, once again!

Thank you for sharing your journey! I'm getting a scar revision on a nasty scar on my neck and I've been so torn about going through pain again since it has been 10 years since I got the scar but your results make me hopeful! =)

Some of you have sent me personal messages asking for a picture of the scar with make up. Here are a few pictures. I am very happy with the results. For once in my life I do not feel like people are looking at the scar.

Here are pictures of the one month post op. Thus far the scar has improved tremendously. The color is changing everyday and it is also shrinking. You can still see a little inflammation which is normal. There isn't any pain. I continue to apply my scar gel everyday and stay out of the sun. The results are exceeding my initial expectations.
