Dermatologist Guide Thread 12 - Dermas pretending to be patients, pls STAY AWAY

[purplewanderer]

Hi sissies, just want to know if anyone had sessions with Dra. Lucia Fores (Makati Med / Renergy at serendra) na?

[monkeybusiness]

^^pasagot Yes. I experienced that too.  Nagsugat talaga sa face ko pero after a day or 2 magfafall off na yung scabs. 

I have a question too for patients of Dr. Leah especially those who are prescribed glyco soap, tret and erythro, nung pinabalik kayo after yung initial consultation, what did she do na after?  Nagfacial ba ulit? Did she change your meds? hehe..sowee dami questions

[VainDoll]

Nung 1st time ko glyco soap, erythro at tret gel muna walang treatment or facial kasi tadtad
pimples ko. After 2 weeks nagsubside na so I had facial, TCA peel and Glyco Peel

[julidita]

How much yung facial + TCA + Glyco peel kay doc leah? Will she prescribe tret agad? Kasi as much as possible inaavoid ko yung purging dahil may school pa kasi ako.

[loball]

Mga sis, ano difference ng facial + peel ni Doc Leah na worth P1,000 versus sa facial + Spanish peel ni Doc Mike Chua na P1,000 din? Mas convenient kasi sa kin pumunta kay Doc Mike, pero may P350 pa yatang consultation fee pag first timer? Hindi ko habol magpa-consult with either of them kasi wala naman akong pimples. Facial + peel lang talaga habol ko.

[khaesj]

monkeybusiness Ako sis after initial consult, after 3 weeks ako pinabalik. Then nag facial ulit, but this time diamond peel na. (I wanted the diamond peel she said okay naman)

julidita TCA+glyco+facial costs 500 kay doc leah. In my case, she prescribed glycolic cream muna before nag tret. Mga 2 months din ako nag glyco, pero I told her na ayoko na mag glyco kasi ayoko yun sting after i-apply. Then she prescribed tret 0.025. Di ko na maalala kung after ilan months ako nag 0.05 but now I'm using 0.1 na. Pero di ako nag purging sa glyco kahit sa tret hindi din. (I don't have pimples pala sis, just the occasional breakouts when I get my period, pero I have blackheads and whiteheads sa nose area kasi oily skin ako)

[khaesj]

loball Yun 1k kay doc leah, includes diamond peel (2 passes), cleaning and TCA. Ako kasi nag papa glycolic bago mag diamond peel, tapos super thin application na lang ng TCA after. It also includes vit. c infusion.

[snazlean]

magkano po ang kailangan dalhin sa second visit kay Dr. leah? TIA

[khaesj]

It depends, kung naka bili ka na ng meds nun 1st session, mas onti na need mo dalin na money for the second session. Pero it will still depend sa papagawa mong treatment, kung glyco+tca 500 lang. Pero kung may diamond peel, 1k need mo. 

[snazlean]

^salamat, sis! binigyan niya ako ng erythro gel, glyco soap at acne plus solution nung first visit ko. meron ba si doc ng sunblock gel?

[khaesj]

^^ Yup meron siya sunblock gel spf30. Meron dun nung chemical free sunblock na spf45.

[minatay91]

may derma ba na.nagspecialize in aesthetics and skin whitening talaga? I went to my trusted derma for my pimples, it's all gone na, I kept asking her about whitening products, gluta at parang "bleh" lang siya sa akin.. sobrang dismayed ako

sabi niya "I'm white enough", or ganda na skin ko, I was dismayed lang, gusto ko mag.ask ng whitening churva sa kanya, parang ayaw niya or sobrang hesitant. she said in a calm, professional way na "ayoko ng mga ganyan" etc, parang if healthy ang skin, she just wants it that way, parang hindi niya gusto i.adjust pa or ano..

kase sisses I'm soo obsessed with whitening and vanity and skincare hehe  dream ko talaga maging super opaque puti parang bondpaper but if dermas don't cater to this, skin clinics lang ba? what do you think?

[snazlean]

sis khaesj, salamat! di kase ngprescribe si doc ng ganyan e. gusto ko pa man din sanang bumili.

[taleebin]

^^ may point naman sis yung derma mo. minsan kasi pag sobra na mas nakakasama pa saka alam naman nila yung ginagawa nila. this isn't whitening related pero minsan nangulit ako sa doctor to do the procedure, niexplain nya na sa akin lahat, nagtry ako sa ibang derma turns out shes right. at instead na gumanda pumangit pa. at least alam mo na di ka lang pineperahan yung iba kasi go lang ng go kahit hindi naman kailangan

[jafi19]

Sis Minatay91, who's your derma? tia!

[jafi19]

^^ Yup meron siya sunblock gel spf30. Meron dun nung chemical free sunblock na spf45.

Sis, how much is the chemical free sunblock? have you tried it? ok ba and is it creamy?  TIA!

[khaesj]

^^^ 200 yata or 250 for a 20 ml pump bottle. Yup eto gamit ko ngayon, though ina-alternate ko siya with my biore perfect face milk depende sa mood ko. Medyo creamy siya pero madali naman i-spread at pag nag dry semi-matte ang finish.

[mariadj]

^Sis san nakaakbilii niyan?

[sakuramie]

[khaesj]
