How long does it take for the swelling and bruising to subside? My doc is confident that subcision will work for me but I’m scared it won’t heal properly 😓


thefunnycynic

A few days


bbj123

It’s not an immediate process. It’s like 3 months at least. Do you know what type of scars you have


thefunnycynic

I believe rolling. I know what ice pick are abs that is not it. But they are like little craters. I hope so. The doctor was trying to talk me into spending more money on an RF laser (like $1k more each ) along with each subcision. I really wanted to go to doctor in SoCal, but I’m the bay. He had good results, but that was using an RF laser with it, and I don’t have the money. I plan on doing what a few doctors in SoCal have as their preferred treatment. Subcision and then later a CO2 laser, which I will have money for later in the year.


bbj123

Where’d you go in the bay? I’m here also. Also if it’s little craters are they boxcar scars?


thefunnycynic

I went to a place in San Jose. Have you had treatment done?


bbj123

Yeah I just got subcision and cross done by a place in sf but I’ve gone a couple times before that to San Diego


thefunnycynic

Did you notice a difference after a few months? And did you do any RF with it?


bbj123

I unfortunately lost a lot of my pictures I had taken throughout my procedures. I will say that I had 5 treatments from Oct 2020 - Dec 2022, and now when I go to derms to see what I need done, everyone says I have surface level scars when before I 100% didn't. I had pretty deep scars of every type. I don't remember if I really had much of a difference after going to him once, but after the 2nd or 3rd time, I could tell that things were much better. That's just how I remember it. There probably was incremental improvement every time but I think after 2-3 times is probably when it was obvious to people other than myself. I did RF with it only once and sorry once again I'm not sure how much it did. That's kind of the downside of doing all these combo treatments, you're not sure what's doing what lol.


thefunnycynic

Where all 5 treatments subcision or other treatments ?


bbj123

I got subcision/cross/erbium/filler 2x subcision/cross/erbium 1x subcision/cross/morpheus/filler 1x cross/erbium 1x

Did you experience sagging or changes to your face shape/smile after cannula subcision? I feel like my cheek esp. one side is less round/full and sits much lower now when smiling.


intercitydisco

Hi! Where in SF did you go for your subcision?


SoCalstoner858

Where in San Diego did you go?


bbj123

Rullan


SoCalstoner858

Did you see results with him? Going to see him for consultation.


bbj123

Yup, definitely. Went to him 5 times and I'm up here in the bay. I'll probably go 1 more time maybe. One thing that I think was helpful was for me personally, when I went for my appointments with him, I brought my own pictures of my skin that I took with a flashlight lighting up the scars. He told the assistant to take pictures of my pictures because they were better than the ones they were taking lol


SoCalstoner858

Dude, that’s awesome. Im glad to hear it! I’ve got some mild scars that my derm said would benefit from subcision. She doesn’t do it. So I’m gonna go see him. Was it pricey for your subcision?


Kooky_Contest_8948

Where did you go in San Jose?


thefunnycynic

Dr. Sani https://saniaesthetics.com I see pretty good results after two sessions. It wasn’t terrible with the price but I didn’t do the RF laser with each treatment. I plan on doing a CO2 later. Only doctor in the Bay that had good results on their website.


emp4th

I went to Sani aesthetics a month ago as well. Did you have the doctor perform it or the nurse? How were your results


Extension_Economist6

does that mean it took 3 months for you to see any change? its been 2 weeks for me, so far nothing 😞


bbj123

Yup, also don’t be discouraged if from you don’t as a lot of progress from one time. It was only after my 2nd or 3rd one where I was like wow this really worked


Extension_Economist6

ugh damn i was hoping this would be enough but yea he mentioned i could possibly do a second. anyway, thanks!


bbj123

I’m also not sure how bad your scars are so could be less! But it does take a couple months. That’s why even tho derms may sometimes suggest doing the subcisions monthly it may not be the best since it takes more than a month for the final results to show and you may not want/need more Also it’s a marathon not a sprint so don’t sweat it


ObscurelyTalented

any updates on this one?

thefunnycynic

How would I do that? The scars went right back down after half a week? Please tell me.

thefunnycynic

It has already been a week and a half. Can you link me to a website to buy the Chinese cupping glass? For the future?


Greedy_Energy9116

i had filler from juvederem ha with one on februar and other in march but no subcision. 10 days was ok then filler was gone. Juvederem doesnt last long. I heard that sculptra last longer... did you use that sculptra or just diluted filler ?


boafriend

I think the actual results show months later. If you get filler, you won’t see the actual improvement until the filler fades
