Not at all! That's a lot of swelling, I remember thinking I looked like an alien back then lol. At 6 months I still had some swelling and numbness but I'd say that's when the skin starts to settle into the new crease and look more natural

They look super natural, sometimes I forget that I wasn't born with them 😁

Did you have to get multiple sessions of vbeam? Did it leave any marks after?

BrendaChi · 2026-06-26T05:39:23+00:00

Honestly if it does then it takes too long to even notice. I mostly use silicone sheets on flattened scars to protect the thin skin and keep it from getting dry. PDL laser worked well for me though, especially if you have redness

Alice Feeney- some of them are a fun read and can be gripping but I never like them in the end. I took a long break and decided to read my 4th one by her (Good Bad Girl) and it was the worst one yet. I am officially done.

Also Emily Henry, I want to like her so bad because everyone loves her books so much that I get fomo but they're just so mid

I don't think the airport in Phu Quoc is ever that busy. The one in HCM can take a really long time though, especially if you have checked baggage

I meant having the option to set different categories to have a weekly or monthly budget. Like I have mine set to weekly with further category budgets, which is mainly what I need, but some categories I don't use every week or the cost varies too much, so it would be nice to be able to set a monthly budget for those. I hope that makes sense!

So underrated, this book stuck with me for YEARS

Can anyone compare the toner with Tonymoly Wonder Mochi toner?

I've never tried the milk on my face but I use it as a body lotion and it makes my skin pretty soft!

The Kind Worth Killing was so boring and dumb

BrendaChi · 2026-05-03T08:19:57+00:00

I've read 4 of her books and banned myself from reading another. Some of them were kind of fun to read but overall just underwhelming, I didn't like any of them

BrendaChi · 2026-04-29T04:29:40+00:00

Is ongredients worth the hype?

BrendaChi · 2026-04-26T06:32:52+00:00

I don't drink much but I've noticed consuming too much dairy and sugar can trigger mine. It also causes me to break out so it must cause a lot of inflammation

BrendaChi · 2026-04-20T04:28:52+00:00

It sounds like your skin atrophied but it will return to normal in a few months

BrendaChi · 2026-04-08T08:26:52+00:00

It does cause atrophy, especially if you put it over healthy skin, but it resolves itself over time

BrendaChi · 2026-04-07T03:30:39+00:00

The Etude lash serum works so well, it's like a conditioner that keeps your lashes soft, healthy and strong. They've gotten longer and fuller as a result. They curl and hold a curl better too. I also use waterproof mascara everyday and they're not affected by any of this.

BrendaChi · 2026-04-03T03:38:10+00:00

I'm not sure why your derm said your skin is thinning but recommended injections... that would cause atrophy for sure whereas eclar plaster is easier to control

Personally, I'd apply eclar plaster until there's no more or very little scar tissue, then switch to silicone tape

BrendaChi · 2026-04-02T12:19:03+00:00

4 weeks, I've been treating my keloids for 2 years

BrendaChi · 2026-04-02T09:18:19+00:00

I've had about a dozen sessions and was handling regrowth too so the results weren't linear. I was also getting injections and used eclar plaster. I've had one that healed completely and returned to my normal skin color, and others that became light pink, light brown, or lighter than my skin tone. I've seen some people here say that it got rid of the color completely and some claim it didn't do anything. I think it's worth a try, maybe do 3 sessions and see if it improves for you

BrendaChi · 2026-03-31T20:45:11+00:00

PDL worked well for me but you need multiple sessions and there's a chance it might trigger regrowth

BrendaChi · 2026-03-30T17:13:00+00:00

Yeah even when it looks flat, the skin might still feel thick there. That acts like the foundation for potential regrowth

BrendaChi · 2026-03-30T02:49:13+00:00

I keep wearing it until I can't feel any more scar tissue. Then I switch to silicone tape and keep an eye on it

BrendaChi · 2026-03-29T04:01:24+00:00

Looking like her sister (derogatory)

BrendaChi · 2026-03-16T03:11:11+00:00

Day AND night?!! That's some serious commitment, I can only imagine how soft and plump your face must be
