sparkee 0 Report post Posted June 10, 2009 Dear All,I have read with interest on ways to alleviate scars in this thread.Below is my experience in Europe.I personally find:- a) chemical peels rather abrasive and more for extreme scar cases; AHA peels rather abrasive too;c) Microdermabrasion - outdated, painful and abrasive and ineffective (if using the diamond peel) - not as painful but less effective for deeper scars/craters (aqua microdermabrasion)For those with light scars, it is pretty easy to solve. So far I find only one product which is botanical based and able to solve light scarring up to 85%. No acid involved.For those with medium scars to deep scars, I saw a technique called Transdermal Micro Infusion Treatment whcih some of my frens did. Frankly I find this is the most efffective way to elleviate scars, not abrasive but definitely effective. Visible results after one treatment only; Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ATok 0 Report post Posted August 10, 2009 This is common sense, I think everyone is doing a lot of research prior in deciding...It actually doest matter to us as long as he/she is a good doctor and solved your problem... However, it is also true that a lot of doctors have turned out to be very business minded...In Malaysia, there are so many patients dying because of the careless doctors..Anyway, I do know that Dr Chea has spent a lot in buying the most advanced machines..thus, she sounded more like a business woman on this..She is still a popular doctor around..just that I dont like the way she pushed me for MD and injections (which i dont need them)...and she is selling at very high price..thats why I have opted for other alternatives...She might not be good to me, but as long as others find her ok and dont mind paying more for repackaged products..
