I already had a check-up and recommendation on the side-effects i got from Flawless Aesthetic Center's pimple injection. If you may remember, I posted a few pictures on the parts of my face that shrinked from which i had some KI. (Read here.)
I had a few e-mails sent to Flawless, and luckily, they accomodatingly responded to it. I wasn't able to capture some screen shots of the emails, but here's a screenshot of Dra. Michelle Cruz's recommendation to me via SMS.
Last Feb 29, I decided to visit Flawless SM North Branch to "claim" the treatments recommended. I got it for free through complimentary basis since I am a complainant.
I had their regular facial treatment of my choice, then they had me undergo the powerpeel treatment. It uses crystals to eliminate dead cells which according to the doctor would help stimulate the growth of collagen that would fill up the sunken part of my skin. Then, they asked me to put tretinoin cream on affected areas every night. Tretinoin cream is said to be helpful in treating acne scars like mine. However, it makes the skin more sensitive to heat which may result to darkening or burning. So they did asked me to "avail" a sunblock cream to protect my skin. I am required to put sunblock everyday and double the usage if I'll be more exposed to the sun.
Below are the photos of the products and their prices.
Powerpeel Treatment P2,530 (Complete with Regular facial and mask)
I wasn't able to take a photo while I was having the treatment.
Above is a Googled picture of the machine itself.

Sunblock Gel P290
The doctors told me that the dents on my face are not permanent. It would normally be treated by time as soon as the skin is able to produce enough amount of collagen to fill the spots. It usually takes 3 to 4 months for the skin to get even, naturally. What they recommended me would just help fasten, at least, the healing process.
NOTE:
It was Dra. Castillo of Flawless SM Sta. Mesa who had me injected Kanolene. I met up with Dra. Andaya of the same branch for my first check up. After my e-mails, it was Dra. Michelle Cruz who processed my complains and had her recos, then another doctor from SM North Branch who had me last checked before i had the treatment.
Leave a comment! :)
