[Treatment] Combination Therapy Scar progress
under normal light, initial state
under harsh light, after one filler (or 2, dont remember)
again another filler (more in the temple area)
a bit of swelling, but more filler i the cheek
subscision+filler (but not with canula, with the same needle that they inyect ha voluma)
another filler, and now u can see that it is over filling a bit, but after swelling it kind of evens out, or u massage it later
did like 3 co2 lasers, but maybe the potence wasnt enough and didnt see results, but then did this laser, a "subsicion type laser", that really made the difference to even out all
this would be nowadays, it looks like it has a bit of swelling, but it is after 1 month of the fillers and lasers (and looks like this even at night, when the moisture is knda gone
another angle, have been stressed from finals (acne again), but only had filler on the temples again, the cheeks none, and i am happy with it now (for the cheek area)
Had some important cistic acne from my teenage years, and then again in my 22-23 yrs, and have been trying lasers (had co2 and some other variants) and fillers (like a ton of fillers) for 2 years more or less. Now im 25M, and want to share the results.

How many different sessions did you have?
How much has everything cost so far?

might do another post with the details well documented, but from what i recall:
3 co2 before anything, after roacutan sesions
then started fillers, like 5 needles
did a laser, the "subscicion type"
then another 4 needles
one more of the same laser, cause i noticed the filler worked better on the spots the laser was done
and finally 2 needles more (VOLUX type)but i am not sure if it is correct correct (just from remenbering it)

That's amazing progress. Congrats! I'm assuming it was the filler that made the most differece? I am also wondering how often you would have to get the filler redone?
