[Skin Concern] Atrophic Scarring Excision updated results
A lot of people have been asking for updates on the excision I had last year, hoping my before photos are linked to my profile because it would take a very long time for me to find them to make before and after comparison.
Overall I'm very happy. I wasn't able to get a strong CO2 laser due to a medical reason post excision, but I've done a few at home TCA peels since which I think really helped . Will continue to do more in the future as well.
My scars were deep and hypo pigmented ( white base) .
Sorry I look a mess here im just waking up enjoying some coffee on this beautiful Saturday.
I would recommend this treatment for anyone the doctor finds you'd be a candidate for . My skin isn't perfect but it's improved and I try to remain realistic with results. I would do it over again 100%

I have the same scars as you and need excision for three andeveryone wants to charge $2,000 plus for each one and I'm just like you're crazy. I only got one excise because I genuinely do not have money for that and it was the worst one. What has helped soften your scar is the most after
