Acne scar removal is my subspecialty - spend 1/3 of my day revising scars. This video is long, but I had to edit the other dozen or so methods I also use to keep this under 30 minutes. Bottom line- everyone has a unique pattern of scars, and individual treatments and combinations gives the best results. Davin LIm. Brisbane. Australia.
Hi Dr Lim, I just have to ask you although I know its not something you would not advise, if I were to numb my skin then use a 1 ml fine needle to try on myself to try and improve a raised scar on my lip do you imagine i could see improvement lets say after a couple of treatments? Or does this process work best on rolling or sunken scars as over in the UK Subsicion seems not to have caught on as of yet.
Lasers and Lifts by Dr Davin Lim Hi Dr. Lim. I know that this is off topic from your video today. But just wondering if you can get to feature something about the benefits of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) for the skin? I will be undergoing this treatment sometime next month because of my herniated disc. The doctor mentioned to me that the excess of the PRP shot can be also used in the face. I have a terrible skin because of pock marks and chicken pox scars. I will appreciate it so much if you can fill me in on this, to give me an idea on what to expect from this type of treatment . Thank you and Best Regards.
Lasers and Lifts by Dr Davin Lim yes you are the best Doctor in this planet👏👏👏.... i wish i could fly too,to see u..Amazing Doctor with Amazing techniques... love u❤
I wish I didn't have acne scars. My skin is horrendous and halts my confidence. I always feel stuck in one place because of it. Sucks how appearance can hold you back.
Dr. Lim, why is it that you are the only dermatologist that understands about using angled lighting in order to see the severity of a skin depression and the shadows that the defects or scars cast on the skin, even if it’s not acne scarring?? Dermatologists here on Long Island, New York put in filler and treat your skin under very soft, diffuse overhead lighting so your results come irregular and look worse when you get home and look at yourself in in natural (side) lighting. When you go see the doctors initially, with the texture or contour issue, they think you’re crazy because the lighting in their offices is unusually diffuse and quite flattering and hardly shows what you are concerned about. But side angled lighting shows what’s really there. I just don’t understand why this is not a concept used by all dermatologists. It’s very frustrating and upsetting …..
What an interesting and very uplifting video. Dr. Lim must love his job. Years back these remarkable results were not possible. You change people's lives!
I’m so happy that I discovered this video, as well as some of your others. I have (what I believe to be) atrophic scarring on my cheek. I’m not sure if it’s a scar from my childhood, or possibly chicken pox as I had a severe case of it in my childhood. My body was left plastered in scars. It has left almost like an indentation on one side of my face. One side appears plump and the other indented. People always make comments on my physical appearance. “You look like you’re on drugs”, amongst other things and after years and years of it I am completely exhausted and spiritually drained. I had no idea if it was possibly genetic, scarring, or nerve damage etc. I had absolutely no idea what to even search for, despite trying dozens of times. Thanks so much for this information, I feel so hopeful that I can begin to fix some of the things that bother me. I could almost cry 😢 I’m excited. Now to find a good dermatologist that can help me!
I think that despiting the fact that you are a really good dermatologist, the fact that you love what you do and you treat your patients wanting their scars get better and not for money, makes you the best one of thr best ones. Best regards!
LOL... I do get reimbursed by insurance companies... having said that I treat many patients for free to get the end result I am happy with. Having said that. ...love what I do.. helping people get back self esteem.. (Rather that then filling up huge lips all day!!!) Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Absolutely mind blowing results. That one procedure resembled liposuction, not surprised you don't like it. Not sure what I like best, your procedures or your personality. You're fun to watch either way lol. Thanks for the video it was awesome!! Have a great weekend Dr Lim
I was able to get the techniques you use performed on my face last week here in Manila. I was treated in one session (lasted 3hours) with Subcision+TCA CROSS+Platelet Rich Fibrin Matrix injection (like PRP). Your videos have helped me tremendously in making an informed and wise decision whether or not to follow my dermatologist's treatment plan. When I saw here that you're using exactly what my doctor has advised, I went and got the treatment. I can say that it has been great so far. My next session will be Infini then Picosure then Fillers (only if needed and is the last step according to my dermatologist). Thank you very much!
That was the "most complete" video about scars and laser I have watched. I am in Italy and I thought "I will fly to England and see this doctor, but... then I saw you are in Australia and it is not around the corner 🥲😋
Dr Lim, thank you soooo much for the time you put in to these amazing videos! Your compassion for people shows not in only choosing this type of work, but in how carefully you analyze each person for just the right treatment for them. You are amazing! The world needs more people like you!
Thanks for your kind words. Helping someone out of depression from scars is one of the most rewarding aspects of dermatology and surgery. Life changing. Dr Davin Lim
Acne scar revision is constantly evolving. The future is with no downtime procedures such as subcision together with PRP- filler techniques. New lasers, energy devices, and stem cells are the future. The best results are based not on technology, but technique. IMO acne scars are medical conditions and not cosmetic. If you reside in Australia Medicare recognises this as a medical treatment and a rebate applies only if Plastic Surgeons or Dermatologists revise scars.
Hi Dr. David Lim, I would like to know if how many times I can use TCA cross? Is it until I see a good result? Fyi, I' am using it evry 1 - 2 months and seeing a bit imorovement.
Thank you for your compassion. I have tried everything the Dermatologists have offered, which has been Retinol and Fraxel which I can see now is mot the optimal treatment for my atrophic scars! My scars have been holding me back for 15 years!!! I've seen multiple dermatologists and they all give me depressing information, one even said "those scars will never go away" and sent me home. And when I had severe acne the dermatologist couldn't even figure out how to treat it. Now I'm an MD myself and seriously it is not that difficult! Unfortunately they have been so incompetent and pessimistic. And worst of all, they made me feel shallow just for wanting better skin. I put on heavy makeup to cover up, but people around me think I do because I am vain. I've felt like a superficial person going in for "cosmetic surgery" when all I wanted was my scars gone. To me it was never cosmetic. And yet I live in a Scandinavian country where the healthcare system is supposed to be free and perfect. I used all my money as a student on treatments. They never worked, I feel they even made it worse. However if I can't find better treatment then yes I will visit you next time I'm in Australia lol. As you say it is about technique! X
my favorite video so far. I have never personally had acne but a lot of my friends still have scarring after theirs. I guess when I went to high school and later studied medicin at the Karolinska Institute it didnt exist. Thank you for the time you put into this, much appreciated. good night from Utah
I save some of my allawance to treat my acne and my acne scar and i think i already find the best doctor i hope we will meet someday. Sending love from PHILIPPINES😍😍
This is a fast and useful study. I`m recommending this acne guide *AcneCureOnline. Com* to my friend who will start their acne remedies to achieve a clearer skin. Very much liked this and appreciated the insight into how my inside issues can affect my skin.
I want my facial acne scars gone so bad, they have made me not even leave my house, I have no quality of life. I know that sounds very shallow but I have no self confidence and feel like everyone looks at them. It's ruined me. 😢😢😢😢
Trust Me i feel the same. Infact my acne scars has actually let me not to see myself. But You need to believe not in the doctors, but in yourself. You must RISE UP AND FACE TOMORROW with a brave hearth. You need to belive in yourself okay. ! One day all acne scars will fade away with just one laser. Hope is a good thing , maybe the best of all things, and no good thing's ever die :)
I'm so sorry you have to go through this. Just know that you are not alone, I've been through the exact same thing for a whole year, not living the house, no social life bc of my scars, it is devastating to see your face "destroyed" with scars everywhere, but there is hope. You can get your skin back, it will get better!
I love your videos! I watched this whole video, stopped it many times as I was taking notes. Thank you for taking time to educate us on the many options available.
What an amazing video! Thanks for taking the time to make this and show results for most techniques. I'm fortunate not to need this but the educational value is tremendous. It will help people make a more informed judgement when they see their dermatologist. I'm also fortunate to live not far from Brisbane so if I ever need help with my skin I know where to go. Keep up the great work and posting the best videos of this type on You Tube.
Oh my god , you gave me hope !! I'm only 21 and I have the worst acne and acne scars ever all over my face ... I hope I can someday "really soon" can make to your place to get rid of it
I want a fraxel co2 laser so bad🙏... I've always had skin issues. I'm thankful for you Drs that help fix peoples imperfections to make them more beautiful 💛
When I was a teenager I had acne and I am embarrassed that people saw me, so I decided to get a treatment online. Today I have 2 months with a treatment and the acne that I had disappeared.
My husband didnt undergo treatment anymore. He just uses the banisher 2.0, a dermastamp that helps in fading acne scars. With consistent use of 5 yrs, his skin is now better than ever
@@thelegendofthem6120 well i couldnt argue with that sweetie.. he is still using the Banisher 2.0 up to now that's why his skin doesnt need that much maintenance compared to others who need daily skincare
How banisher could repair deep acne scars with 0,5 size ? If banisher work, dr pen m8 work too, maybe the key is still using dr pen, dermaroller or banish for few years… 🙏
Yes, Fraxel .... I have 6 Fraxels but do not use them for severe scars. That company should be sued for saying it works in severe scarring.. mild mix scars, fair go...early scars 1550 Fraxel can do.. but severe scars waste of money. Sorry to hear...
I have been suffering from Rolling scars for like 10 years, and then one day i watched your videos about treating acne scars,and i was interested with subcision technique, after watched your explanation about it i finally managed to encourage my ownself to undergo the procedure and finally my scars were lifted like 50% of this method,it was all thanks to your video To all people who suffer rolling scars i really reccomend you guys to take subcision procedure cause it really works
Hey David, I'm so close to pulling the trigger from flights to Perth. I can only travel a month before I'm going to head to Europe. My scars are mostly tethered, all over my cheeks. I do have one huge atrophic hole as well. I've seen a lot of people complaining about downtime from Infini and I don't want to have punchhole marks and other redness while in Europe. I believe I am a strong candidate for subcision. Anyway my question to you is how much control does the patient get on what procedure they get? Obviously you know best, but if we have something like a holiday weeks after would you be more open to using procedures with less downtime? Thanks can't wait to meet you in person one day (hopefully soon!)
Yes, I just did half a dozen interstate patients yesterday... If you could at least stay a night, I can fit 2 sessions in ... make sure you get a referral from a gp as I am a specialist. More on the is procedure on www.lasersandlifts.com.au under the acne section. Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Thanks so much! What is the go with the 'cooling off period of 7 days?' I was going to come just for a few nights, hoping to get something along the lines of subcision or something
I live in Maryland, and Ireally want to fly where you are Dr. Davin Lim so you can help me with my acne scars. i never thought that there's something that can help with acne scars. I have been suffering with acne scars for 7 years now and pretty much affected my life.
Lots of good doctors in the US, goto www.lasersandlifts.com.au See the out of town patients, search there. Cheers, DL m, Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
Hi Dr. Davin Lim, I am constantly traveling between Orlando, Florida and Bogota, Colombia and I am planning to visit Australia just to get acne scar treatment with you unless you know of anyone near those two cities who knows as much as you do? Thanks!
Hello Dr Lim. I am a 44 year old asian woman who suffers from acne scars since high school. After subscribing to your chanel for many years now I really want to be set free from being depressed and stressed every time i face the mirror……… please help…… Although I live in Australia too, because I live in NSW, removing my scars by you are just a dream…… it took me 5 years to come up with a courage to leave a comment here to ask what are my options such as how many flights and travels it would take over what period of time I need to take into consideration to start my treatment from you. Thank you…….
For specialist that I know of around the world go to www.lasersandlifts.com.au Navigate to the far right, see the out of town patients section. Listed there. Specialist that I know who can perform Gold Standard acne scar revision. Add to the list in the comments if you know of others. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane Australia.
Dr Davin Lim Dr. Lim, I am struggling with my acne scars from my high school, I have chemical burn, can you suggest me, what should I do, can I send you my pics to you ? I need your help
Dr LIM, after watching your videos I am confident that I’m a good candidate for subcision. You seem like the best in your field. Thank you for posting these insightful videos, and for all that you do . gives me hope to one day get rid of my scars, which I’ve suffered with for years. Is there a doctor of your expertise with acne scarring that you can recommend me to in NYC?
If I come to Australia I will book an appointment with you. Your videos have been very informative regarding acne scarring. I'm trepidatious with the doctors in my area - but hope to find a qualified , experienced, professional for the Infini microneedling
I’m so impressed with this video. Excellent explanation! I fully understand what I’m into. My acne scars are very small and scattered. Maybe it’s difficult to treat.
Dear Dr Davin, I am a dermatologist in Japan. What 21G needle which you use on the video? Could you tell me brand name of the needle? Because we have only BD Nokor 16G or 18G needle.
I use everything from 30 G for fine work, all the way to 16 G. Yes you are indeed correct, the only source I can find is 16-18 G NOKOR via Delasco. Cheers, from your colleague, Davin Lim. Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
I bought a derma roller in order to address my forehead wrinkles at home. Consequently, I developed a Staph infection on my forehead and am now left with tethered scarring. I have an appointment with a board certified dermatologist and am hoping to be a good candidate for this procedure. Because of my appearance, I feel the need to wear a hat everywhere, and I don't have any confidence at the moment.
Dr. Liam I totally enjoy your videos. I enjoy your knowledge, your professionalism and it is apparent that you enjoy teaching. The quality of your videos have improved and it makes watching the videos quite enjoyable.
on minute 18:20 you talk about a female with skin type 1 and used a combo of erbium and fractional laser. if i am going to ask a dermatologist office if they do this procedure, what machines would i ask for? thank you for all the videos you make this is a long shot but do you know any offices in chicago that offer this treatment?
Its tough because you have to find the right specialty doctor who can do this correctly without damaging your skin T_T I live in Los Angeles. I plan to save up money to see Dr. Lim lol
@@f0repl4y i finally found an office that does new treatments, and is up to date with the "science" and stuff! you live in los angeles?!! its def over saturated with specialists in all fields of cosmetic plastic etc, but thats kind of a huge advantage, im sure if you look you will find an office that does the same procedures as dr lim
Thanks for sharing. You always give some of the best advice for people all over. I have used your advice on many occasions and have been blessed my using your advice. Thanks Dr. Lim.
Hi dr lim would you ever come to london i've seen a lot of good dermatologist over the years but find your approach brilliant with great results a no nonsense approach but very professional each time.

Yes - fillers and lasers etc.. are not cheap.. will do a video on why acne scars should be covered under insurance when psoriasis and vitiligo are... Davin LIm.
You definitely have achieved some great results Dr. Lim! Wish you practiced in California. I will check out the list of Doctors in my area. Good to know there are methods now that actually work! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
You’re the best I’ve seen online. My skin is terrible and I wish I can afford to fly down and have you treat my skin! I’ll be saving up so I can. In the meantime I’ve been doing at home microneedling but it’s not helping much

Wow!! Such talent, such dedication, and so much humility and collegiality. You are a true professional and you remind me of my own sons. Like your hairstyle and it reveals your age ... in your late 30s or early 40s the latest. If I have a derma problem, I shall look you up. Meanwhile good luck and keep searching for further improvements in skin health. I think you are the best!!
I do have acne scars too just like this, and I never been into dermatologist not even once. I want this to be cured but I find it quite expensive and one thing I really am afraid of needles after watching this I have a little courage now but still are afraid 😨 great result doc ❤️
Well.... that is the complexity of acne scar revision. I apologise for the complexity, but general dermatologists can not follow the complexity of targeted approaches. Hence the video, .....not to confuse, but to educate. Cheers. Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Oh, not at all! I thought your explanations were perfect. The reason I said "difficult" was because I thought the procedures were intense (eventhough I am aware that local anaesthesia is used). Really, the video was incredible :-)
Hi Davin, can you suggest me any best doctor here in Melbourne, who is as good as you are with the scars and ance ? otherwise , i am more than happy to fly up to Brisbane to see you . regards

When I was a teenager I had acne and I am embarrassed that people saw me, so I decided to get a treatment online. Today I have 2 months with a treatment and the acne that I had disappeared.
I believe most people can get rid of scaring. It’s a journey for sure. little by little u get ur confidence back!! Until u don’t need much treatments
How big were your scars and how much % improvement you have seen.
@ I’d say 80%. They were deep and medium size
Found you years ago and it’s still my dream to travel from the States to see you. This is such a thoughtful, well-explained video. Thank you!
My husband didnt undergo treatment anymore. He just uses the banisher 2.0, a dermastamp that helps in fading acne scars. With consistent use of 5 yrs, his skin is now better than ever
5 years!? Honey.. I got lasered 3 times and they're gone. 3 times in one year.
@@thelegendofthem6120 well i couldnt argue with that sweetie.. he is still using the Banisher 2.0 up to now that's why his skin doesnt need that much maintenance compared to others who need daily skincare
How banisher could repair deep acne scars with 0,5 size ? If banisher work, dr pen m8 work too, maybe the key is still using dr pen, dermaroller or banish for few years… 🙏
@@kzzaza1768 im not sure about that because we've only tried the Banisher 2.0. With consistent use, you'll see a huge difference after 8th use.
@@MissInformationVlogs how kind of scars got your husband ? How many month using this ? 👌
You are the best professional for acne scars in the world
Cheers,
Davin Lim
I’d love to get treatment but I’m scared of them causing more scarring :(
Dr. David thanks very much for the time for putting the effort for making the people aware and helping with the treatment options .
had fraxel laser co2 sessions,i forget to count sessions and its just a waste of money and time,i have deep acne scars,thank you.
Yes, Fraxel .... I have 6 Fraxels but do not use them for severe scars. That company should be sued for saying it works in severe scarring.. mild mix scars, fair go...early scars 1550 Fraxel can do.. but severe scars waste of money. Sorry to hear...
yes it was waste of time for deep ance scars,thank you very much for the info.
@@ozgurkuzu2202did you try something else?
Will you do a video on broken or dilated capillaries? From my all research you seem to be the most informed & best at conveying the information.
Is there a talented physician like you, in the u.s. (new york) that you'd reccomend for acne scarring? Great videos
I have been suffering from Rolling scars for like 10 years, and then one day i watched your videos about treating acne scars,and i was interested with subcision technique, after watched your explanation about it i finally managed to encourage my ownself to undergo the procedure and finally my scars were lifted like 50% of this method,it was all thanks to your video
To all people who suffer rolling scars i really reccomend you guys to take subcision procedure cause it really works
Hensen Prasetio do the needle create scars too?
How Many session have you done ? I have done only one and i get 0 results
Ça m’intéresse aussi ! Donnez des nouvelles
@@feyesavate5103can you see some results now?
Hey David,
I'm so close to pulling the trigger from flights to Perth. I can only travel a month before I'm going to head to Europe. My scars are mostly tethered, all over my cheeks. I do have one huge atrophic hole as well. I've seen a lot of people complaining about downtime from Infini and I don't want to have punchhole marks and other redness while in Europe. I believe I am a strong candidate for subcision.
Anyway my question to you is how much control does the patient get on what procedure they get? Obviously you know best, but if we have something like a holiday weeks after would you be more open to using procedures with less downtime?
Thanks can't wait to meet you in person one day (hopefully soon!)
Yes, I just did half a dozen interstate patients yesterday... If you could at least stay a night, I can fit 2 sessions in ... make sure you get a referral from a gp as I am a specialist. More on the is procedure on www.lasersandlifts.com.au under the acne section. Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Thanks so much! What is the go with the 'cooling off period of 7 days?' I was going to come just for a few nights, hoping to get something along the lines of subcision or something
@@beaubobitbobo how did it work with your scars
I live in Maryland, and Ireally want to fly where you are Dr. Davin Lim so you can help me with my acne scars. i never thought that there's something that can help with acne scars. I have been suffering with acne scars for 7 years now and pretty much affected my life.
Lots of good doctors in the US, goto www.lasersandlifts.com.au
See the out of town patients, search there. Cheers, DL m, Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
Did you got rid of your scars?
Hi Dr. Davin Lim, I am constantly traveling between Orlando, Florida and Bogota, Colombia and I am planning to visit Australia just to get acne scar treatment with you unless you know of anyone near those two cities who knows as much as you do? Thanks!
See the end of video... lots of guys I know in the US including Dr Steve Weiner in Florida . Davin Lim. Brisbane, Australia

Hello Dr Lim. I am a 44 year old asian woman who suffers from acne scars since high school. After subscribing to your chanel for many years now I really want to be set free from being depressed and stressed every time i face the mirror……… please help…… Although I live in Australia too, because I live in NSW, removing my scars by you are just a dream…… it took me 5 years to come up with a courage to leave a comment here to ask what are my options such as how many flights and travels it would take over what period of time I need to take into consideration to start my treatment from you. Thank you…….
For specialist that I know of around the world go to www.lasersandlifts.com.au
Navigate to the far right, see the out of town patients section. Listed there. Specialist

Dr LIM, after watching your videos I am confident that I’m a good candidate for subcision. You seem like the best in your field. Thank you for posting these insightful videos, and for all that you do . gives me hope to one day get rid of my scars, which I’ve suffered with for years.

Happens to be my B day as well... DL
Dr. Davin Lim gave me a reason to live.
This is your best video! Super
thx
@@drdavinlim best video.
More videos on punch excision and punch grafting
Great informative video. I have bunch of acne scars on my nose, which are like bumps, and not downward shape? What are those? And how to treat them?
If I come to Australia I will book an appointment with you. Your videos have been very informative regarding acne scarring. I'm trepidatious with the doctors in my area - but hope to find a qualified , experienced, professional for the Infini microneedling
Tomsprincess A me three!!! I'm in Atlanta .
very cool. Hot-Lanta ;) I don't check this very often, sorry for the late reply! :)
I’m so impressed with this video. Excellent explanation! I fully understand what I’m into. My acne scars are very small and scattered. Maybe it’s difficult to treat.
Dear Dr Davin,
I am a dermatologist in Japan.
What 21G needle which you use on the video?
Could you tell me brand name of the needle?
Because we have only BD Nokor 16G or 18G needle.
I use everything from 30 G for fine work, all the way to 16 G. Yes you are indeed correct, the only source I can find is 16-18 G NOKOR via Delasco. Cheers, from your colleague, Davin Lim. Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
Thanks, Dr Davin.
I learned a lot from your site and video. I'll be always your big fan.
From your colleague in Japan.
this is always one of my go to videos to reacquaint myself
Can some body cut my head plz and place it with another one ???
I bought a derma roller in order to address my forehead wrinkles at home. Consequently, I developed a Staph infection on my forehead and am now left with tethered scarring. I have an appointment with a board certified dermatologist and am hoping to be a good candidate for this procedure. Because of my appearance, I feel the need to wear a hat everywhere, and I don't have any confidence at the moment.
Damn, just realized you work like 10 mind from me. This just became an actual option for me.
Small world. Hope to help you some day. More info on www.lasersandlifts.com.au
Cheers, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Dr. Liam I totally enjoy your videos. I enjoy your knowledge, your professionalism and it is apparent that you enjoy teaching. The quality of your videos have improved and it makes watching the videos quite enjoyable.
Thanks for your encouragement.... DL
doctor David lim i am from Cyprus and i am planning to come to Australia to see you...how can i contact you? :)
Why don't you Google him. Not to mention he provided a link at the top. Easy as it gets.
How I wish that there is a dermatologist like you in Singapore. I have spent so much money but with only very minimal recovery of my acne scars. 😭
You are amazing! I subscribed!
Thanks DL
love your videos. makes me want to go back to school to become a dermatologist.
Thanks .. love my job. Davin Lim
I miss my smooth skin😰 but now i did not realize..to what happened
me too😥..its been 3 years from now..and i dont know what happened
on minute 18:20 you talk about a female with skin type 1 and used a combo of erbium and fractional laser. if i am going to ask a dermatologist office if they do this procedure, what machines would i ask for?
thank you for all the videos you make
this is a long shot but do you know any offices in chicago that offer this treatment?
Its tough because you have to find the right specialty doctor who can do this correctly without damaging your skin T_T I live in Los Angeles. I plan to save up money to see Dr. Lim lol
@@f0repl4y i finally found an office that does new treatments, and is up to date with the "science" and stuff!
you live in los angeles?!! its def over saturated with specialists in all fields of cosmetic plastic etc, but thats kind of a huge advantage, im sure if you look you will find an office that does the same procedures as dr lim
Love your videos doc!

LOL.. far from it, I learn from the best in the World, but still a small timer .. Davin Lim
Great video! Hey what would you say are the hardest acne scars to treat?
Rolling and tethered scars in dark skin types, or 'stelate' or start shaped fibrotic scars.. hardly mentioned, common, and hard to treat.. DL
I want to subcision myself 😂😂😂
Thanks for sharing. You always give some of the best advice for people all over. I have used your advice on many occasions and have been blessed my using your advice. Thanks Dr. Lim.
You're welcome. DL

No... apologies DL
Aswin can it is possible to go Australia
Hi dr lim would you ever come to london i've seen a lot of good dermatologist over the years but find your approach brilliant with great results a no nonsense approach but very professional each time.
Thanks... see Dr Emil ... goto www.laserandlifts.com.au, navigate to the far right ... see the OUT OF TOWN patients section.. go there. Excellent dermatologist . Sorry I ve done my time in the NHS for two years well over a decade ago! Love London, I still have my GMC registration funny enough, so still can practice in the UK and Ireland... but no, too much equipment at home. Remember I need all my tools, depending on the scar type. All the best, and Dr Emil will help you .Dr Davin Lim, Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
Ok I'm sold. Saving money to get treated by you (from Europe). The fate of my future face is in your hands now doc lol
Dr Davin, can you give us a quote for how much is the cost for this procedure? So we have an idea ?
Omgg very inspiring, i just need $$$$
Yes - fillers and lasers etc.. are not cheap.. will do a video on why acne scars should be covered under insurance when psoriasis and vitiligo are... Davin LIm.
😐
You definitely have achieved some great results Dr. Lim! Wish you practiced in California. I will check out the list of Doctors in my area. Good to know there are methods now that actually work! Thank you so much for sharing your expertise.
You’re the best I’ve seen online. My skin is terrible and I wish I can afford to fly down and have you treat my skin! I’ll be saving up so I can. In the meantime I’ve been doing at home microneedling but it’s not helping much
Great video Dr. Lim, I wish you lived closer and I'd definitely go and consult you, I live in Connecticut, US.
Again, great info..!!
Many great guys in the US

Welcome. For patients in the US, goto www.lasersandlifts.com.au and go to the part of the site that says 'OUT OF TOWN PATIENTS'- i have listed a few good US plastics and dermatologist with an equal passion for treating acne scars. Davin Lim, Brisbane. Australia
@@drdavinlim would you be able to recommend doctors in Turkey or Europe too? Thank you in advance Dr. Davin.
I have really light scars.
But I wish to see you bc u have so much experience.
I don’t want them to become worse with unexperienced doctors
Wow!! Such talent, such dedication, and so much humility and collegiality. You are a true professional and you remind me of my own sons. Like your hairstyle and it reveals your age ... in your late 30s or early 40s the latest. If I have a derma problem, I shall look you up. Meanwhile good luck and keep searching for further improvements in skin health. I think you are the best!!
Thank you kindly, much appreciated, Davin Lim
Dr. ¿Are the results permanet, or you must repeat the treatment for maintenance? Fillers i mean...
Eneide Alvariza the results are permenant
Wow! If I could afford one of your treatments that would be a dream come true!!! Nice work
Cheers, DL
I do have acne scars too just like this, and I never been into dermatologist not even once. I want this to be cured but I find it quite expensive and one thing I really am afraid of needles after watching this I have a little courage now but still are afraid 😨 great result doc ❤️
I love your videos- especially your thorough explanation of each proceedure. I am SO available should you need a to try out some treatments ! 😊
haha me tooo...
This is what is was looking for. So much information. I have acne scarring and hope to build collagen too. Thank you for all this education!!
No problems. Davin Lim
Thanks doctor for your good work. Please show more about how to treat deep scars.
Coming soon. Davin Lim
Very educational but also so difficult to watch! Thank you for the upload, Dr. Lim
Well.... that is the complexity of acne scar revision. I apologise for the complexity, but general dermatologists can not follow the complexity of targeted approaches. Hence the video, .....not to confuse, but to educate. Cheers. Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Oh, not at all! I thought your explanations were perfect. The reason I said "difficult" was because I thought the procedures were intense (eventhough I am aware that local anaesthesia is used). Really, the video was incredible :-)
Dr Lim, thx for ur video. Any doctor suggested in Hong Kong?
Prof Henry Chan.
Hi Davin, can you suggest me any best doctor here in Melbourne, who is as good as you are with the scars and ance ? otherwise , i am more than happy to fly up to Brisbane to see you . regards
