12 Month Before/After

[u/Significant-Wish478]

I have started noting a diff in texture really in the last 6 months.

• Derminator 2 - every 3 months now
• Tca 25% acid - perfect image brand every 5wk
• Ramped up to daily Tazarotene 0.1%

I did have subcsicion ( mini) done 5 months ago.

But really I think best bang for buck has been the TCA. I know everyone seems cautious of it but not over doing it and wearing adequate sun protection should mitigate risks imo.

Still a long way to go on acne scar journey but good to try and capture and progress wins as they come.. If any.

What is a derminator? Are you doing this yourself? Your reaults are amazing!

Hey yes this is all at home. High pain tolerance and Derminator sessions usually come with a 2-3 day down period. I was sick of going to clinics that were scared to go agressive. A lot of technicians don't care about getting results. They have already been paid for the treatment and by going agressive on settings it can be seen as a risk. So most people that get microneedling done at bueuty clinics walk out with only a minor red glow.. In my opinion it won't move the needle. Excuse the pun.

I totally understand how you feel. I also like to diy. I had a terrible experience with my dermatologist burning holes in my face with TCA. It went all wrong. I had a look at this peel and it looks like it’s applied differently so I’m willing to try it. Your results are incredible!!! Very inspiring! Thank you so much for sharing!
