Absolutely do NOT recommend! This was my second unsuccessful procedure with Dr. Wu; at Cosmetic Laser and Dermatology. I had two subcision procedures on my right cheek ($400 per session). The last procedure was a little over 3 mos ago and I have scars post procedure.The whole reason I went to Dr. Wu was to eliminate my acne scars; and instead, ended up with new scars. It has been absolutely devastating/heartbreaking. NOT WORTH IT!

Hi, we are sorry to hear you are unhappy with your experience. Acne scars are very difficult to treat and it often takes multiple treatments and more than a few months to see final results. We take our feedback very seriously and we would like to discuss your situation further. Please call us at (858) 943-2113 at your earliest convenience. Thank you.

As you can see by this close-up I have two noticeable scars post-subcision. These scars were a direct result of the procedure. I do NOT recommend.

I'm glad that I read this post. I was seriously considering going to Dr. Wu for a subcision treatment. Will look somewhere else.
