I go to TCS Skin Clinic @ Central. They are relatively good. Subsided my whole red and boiling face within 1.5mth on their regime.

As for the acne scars, usually they will recommend laser. It is reliable and effective for my case as the scar aint that visible as compared. As for the affordability, bout $2k

Went to TSC before too. 1 session around $600 iirc, unless you sign a package, excluding consultation and products. Depending on the severity of the scars, any pitted/boxed scars? Or just superficial marks? The former will not heal completely, regardless of what you do, and a 20-30% improvement is considered good in my opinion after a few sessions, not one. For more severe cases, you may even need subcision. Also bear in mind the downtime. You wouldn't dare to step out of the house before you heal completely.

And please only opt for laser after your face is cleared aka no more breakouts, or you will only be wasting your money. Laser only help with scars, not with breakouts. Get advice from the doctor.

I use a tea tree soap from my derma (different oil from the ones in The Body Shop). I also have erythromycin cream (with something else) as a spot corrector. It works wonders!

Not so sure about the last statement - my wife had breakouts and went to Gangnam Laser Clinic. They did the carbon laser treatment and it cleared the acne problem after a few sessions. Her friends also gave the same treatment that they renewed packages there. The pricing is very similar to the normal laser facial too

Perhaps there's a combination of other treatments and products? The doctor should resolve the ongoing acne problem before CO2 laser, which is used for scar treatment. Different lasers for different purposes.

Agree. Am sure the doctor treats the underlying problem too in conjunction wif laser treatment
That's why important to find a good doctor and not just a laser.

I've recently tried this this laser facial treatment. It cleared my blemishes in 7 days. I would say it's pretty good in combating pimples/acne. If you want to know more details (e.g. before-after photos), it's documented in my website.

There are two types of scars (1) flat red type (2) holes . I have (1) .. Using a sunscreen helped reduce the redness .. Also sk2 essence helped me calm down the skin ... But both are effective only when I use (2) my colleague has deep holes and went for laser and it seems to help a bit... But I think very hard to be perfect

How many days it takes to heal completely.

Read from blog that raw honey apply direct to face can help cure acne as raw honey have anti-baterical properties

Anyone try before... May work with some people

Hi Nicole
thats a very informative write up of your treatment at Gangnam Laser Clinic. I learnt alot from it. It certainly is a good value treatment for what it is and what it can achieve
