1540 wasn't worth it to me.

ORIGINAL POST

1540 is a Waste of Money.

$2,550
Had three 1540 laser treatments for acne scars and to be honest I saw zero change in any sort of way. Maybe a slight 1-5% difference in tightening of the skin. Complete waste of money. Threw 2.5k down the drain. Dr Hanke is legit and a really nice and caring guy but I'm starting to feel everyone else's complaints and pain before me. Treatments do not work. Also had subcision almost 3 weeks ago and not seeing any change so far. Idk man it's very depressing and I get why people spend thousands of dollars just to be let down, I do not think acne scars can be dealt with unless you have 20-30k to spend 1-2 years doing treatments over and over again just to see many 20% improvement. Consistency is key and frankly it's starting to get too expensive for me to keep going.

Dr. Hanke is awesome, no complaints about him. He understands my concern (acne scars) very well. But acne scars are incredibly complex and I just don't think there's any wow factor treatments out there to give quick or even noticeable results which is definitely unfortunate. Not his fault. All of us suffering from acne scars go in hoping for a miracle when sadly dealing with acne scars is a very long marathon, years of consistent treatments and not a sprint.
