For many years I suffered severe acne resulting in prominent facial scars and depressions. After a comprehensive internet search I located Westside Dermatology at Taringa in Brisbane AU who specialise in treating these scars. A number of subcision and CO2 laser treatments were used with great success. There has been a noticeable reduction in scar visibility (50%-80%). For each technique there was only minor discomfort as patient care is of importance.

Nice improvement -- congrats! What are your best pre/post-op tips to help others prepare for this procedure?

Hi Eva. Thank you!
There isn't really any patient preparation for subcision and CO2 laser treatments (taken care of by the clinic) although it certainly helps if the guys shave on the day.
Post treatment for CO2 is to minimise time in the sun for a few days and apply moisturising cream to the treated area.

Thanks for your reply! Ah yes, shaving beforehand would be important -- great tip!

Very happy for your success! Would you post another photos in future, maybe a before and after in the same light?

Thank you! Yes certainly although the photos don't do full justice to the improvements I have seen. I have however added another photo from the end of my treatments.
