About 8 years ago I had a mole removed on my cheek. Over the years the scar began to sink and become depressed. Here is my first subcision progress. More than likely will have another treatment in 2 months but so far, good!

If you have a deeper scar like I did, I would highly recommend this procedure. :)

Can you explain the procedure a bit? Thanks

Hi! Basically they take a tool and go under your skin in a windshield wiper motion to break the bonds between the scar and your tissue. Then your scar becomes filled-in over time with new collagen. You can also have fillers injected to have more immediate results.

IT looks way better than how it looked before subscision, you look great ! The only thing you may need a laser treatment afterwards however you still need to ask a doctor ✨

1 week progress update

About a week ago I had my first subcision procedure to the sunken surgical scar on my cheek. Right after the procedure it was pretty swollen and started to bruise a bit but after a week I have seen progress! My scar definitely looks much less sunken. When casting a light on it there is much less of a shadow. I am excited for my next procedure in about 7 weeks.

Subcision #2

Ninnieminni
Hi all! So it's been about 2 months since my first subcision on a scar left by a mole removal. The scar was very deep and had sunk quite a bit since the surgery years ago. The first subcision made some nice improvement on the scar but it usually takes 2-3 subcision treatments for the optimal result. I will post before subcision #2 pics and right after. I did notice the bruising and bleeding on this treatment to be way more noticeable than last treatment. Excited to see the results. I'll post an update in the next few days once the bruising has gone away.
