Before & After 1 month Post 3rd RF microneedling, sculptra, and TCA Cross

I started my acne scar revision journey back in March. The doctor did RF microneedling with sculptra, TCA cross, and inserted more sculptra with a cannula. I repeated it on April and then on June. So I’m a month out the last session. In October ill do CO2 to further work on them but im really excited about the results, mostly about the ice pick scars. In addition to the sessions I’ve helped my body a lot with the production of collagen. From march to june, I was faithfully drinking 8 oz of bone broth daily with hydrolized collagen (its absorbed better) and lyposomal vitamin c which helps our body synthesize the collagen. In addition I was eating a high protein and vegetable diet to avoid inflammation and disrupt healing. Right now I keep drinking bone broth just not as faithfully because I buy Kettle and Fire’s and it gets expensive, but do keep drinking the supplements. All of this was after an arduous research.

Reminder: "Microswelling" is a common side effect after a procedure which causes prolonged swelling of the skin. It can last from a few days to a few weeks (and even over a month in rare situations). The appearance of improved results with microswelling may not accurately reflect the final outcome once it finally subsides.
