I would recommend Dr. Ko from Klang. Used to be their patients there and they are quite nice and friendly to the customers. When I was a student, Dr. Ko personally reduced the medical fee for me. No doubt some of their products can be slightly expensive but they are worth it.

Reduce by how much? blink.gif

A few hundred. I would say cheaper by RM100 - RM200. Dr. Ko personally told the nurse to reduce the price for me but did not state the figure. The nurse will then reduce about RM100 - RM200. That was years ago.

why the doctor didn't give me offer since i am a student?
r u any datuk's son?

i just went for dr.ko 4 days ago(tues)...

i was consulted by a beautician (grace teh) at 1st...
then i was bring to dr.ko for awhile...he just explain few things to me abt the medicine and sign to approve the medicine gave by beautician...
then i was brin to laser treatment by a guy (4get to ask his name but i guess he is not a doctor)

total bill is Rm520
RM240 for a month medicine(isotretinon and antibacterial)
RM80 for acne lotion...
RM200 for laser treatment (RM10 per shot)

this is what i have been through...

comment:
my skin condition is not that bad...just oily skin and some acne scar left over...
they give me isotretinon to control the oil...i think this is a must for every patient because this 'drugs' can cure most of the skin problem...
for antibacterial medicine,i dun think its neccessary for me because i seldom have acne now...even i have i also can use the acne lotion from them...
about the laser treatment,it is RM10 per shot...due to not much cash i holding,i tell them to set the treatment at Rm200...

the result will be given after 1 month....
i din see any obvious results now except skin start drying...

I'm not a datuk son and etc. Just humbly tell them that I'm still a student and can you reduce the price for me. Remember to only tell this to Dr. Ko since he has the authority to reduce prices. If you did not open your mouth, they will charge you accordingly.

I've been to their laser treatment once. No immediate result. The result can only be seen after several weeks. I would say about 2-3 weeks. Since you have oily skin, did Dr. Ko prescribe any pinkish medicine to be eaten? Use to control your oily skin.

From what i heard, Dr Ko's staff very money minded and look down on other people. Instead of Dr Ko or other doctor , the nurse will do the treatment for you. And i also heard their staff attitude was very bad... and often also over expensive than other clinic.

I'm not too sure whether they are money minded or not. But what I'm pretty sure of is that their medicine and service will cost you alot. I don't mind paying as they produce result. And when your case is not serious, the nurses will be the one doing the treatment. And it is very diffcult to get discount from them.

I know there's another skin specialist near the Klang river. Above the 7-11 store next to Lian Hup. Their price offered are resonable but never like their product. Never produced result and the doctor kept on trying other medicine on me and risking my skin. It became worse after seeing him. After that, went to Dr. Ko and I start seeing result.

oh,haha...coz i heard they treat datuk/datin/artist differently...
haih,4get to do that...maybe i will try to do that in nxt my nxt visit...

btw,what laser treatment u do?RM10 per shot?
is the result obvious after several weeks?
because there is one week from the day i do laser...so far not much effect and some of the scar are bleeding and darken...i am worried the laser make my scar worst...
does it really nid so long to see the result?

yeap, that pinkish medicine is RM180 per month...i think it is isotretinon/accutane or so call vitamin A...
but my skin still oily and lips not that dry even i already take the medicine for 1 week...maybe nid longer time to see the effect...

The result will be obvious after several weeks. The scar won't go away immediately. It'll slowly fade away. Bleeding and darken is a serious issue. I have never experience such thing before. Perhaps you should seek some advice from them. If I'm not mistaken, doctor consultation is FOC. Once went inside to ask some advice, and once done, just walk out.

The pink pill will make your face and lips dry. 1 week should be sufficient to see the result as your face will slowly get dry. May I ask, how often do you take this pill? When I first took mine, it was about 1 in every 2-3days. My skin became really dry and I have to apply moisturizer on my face to keep them wet.

I went for Ranjit in SS15 for the past 1 year... the pink pills given is Isotretinoin also known as Roaccutane... it cost me RM200 per box from Ranjit... including his self made anti bacteria cream... for my case he ask me to take one pill everyday for the 1st box... 2nd box alternate days then 3rd twice a week.. then 4th once a week and so on for 6 boxes... and he said the cream has to be applied for your entire lifetime... hence u'll become a loyal customer... rclxms.gif

recommended to a friend as well... his condition got better... so was mine... but after i stopped the pills and just applying the cream only, the acne starting to come back... when on the pill max 1 pimple per week only... now everyday 1... guess everyone case is different...

btw he doesnt treat ur scar until u acne problem goes off... so dont expect instant makeover or something...

Same here. I once totally stopped taking those pills and my acne come in one shot. I spoke to the nurse and she told me that there's a method to stop taking those pills and your acne will not come back. First of all, reduce your body dependency on pills to control your acne output. Start by taking twice a week for about a month or so. After that, only take once a week for the next coming month. Once you don't see any acne popping out, reduce your intake to about once in every two week and so forth. The trick here is to tell your body to reduce its dependency on these pills and you should be doing fine after that. These pills don't come cheap. I think it cost about RM5 for one pill.

After one week still no result, just wait for a few more week. 1 week is too short. And that's exactly what they have informed me when I first consulted them for my acne problem. Eat everyday and stop eating when lips too dry. And as usual, 1 week is too short. After few more weeks and you'll realize that your skin will not be that oily anymore. But always remember that when your face is less oily, your skin tend to be dry. Use a moisturizer if possible. I remembered Dr. Ko never prescribe me using a moisturizer until I complaint about my dryness.

You only reduce your pill intake once your acne has been controlled. Dr.Ko will never tell you to reduce the pill intake because I'm pretty sure they want you to continue purchasing from them. They only start telling me to reduce the intake after I compaint about the expensive price I'm paying for these pills then only they told me to reduce it. Remember, only reduce the intake SLOWLY and one step at a time. From everyday intake, reduce to probably once in every two days and so forth.

And this pills is used to reduce your face oil. Once you managed to control your face oil, eventually you'll be able to control your acne. Acne is produced when there's an accumulated oil at your skin pores. Therefore, reduce your face oil will help control your acne output as well.

i thought laser can clear my acne scar in short duration since it is costly...then i no choice have to wait loh...
ya,i already got use moisturizer before eating the pill...the beautician also never ask me to buy...

my acne already controlled before i eat pill wor...just my skin is too oily thats why the doctor ask me to eat that pill to reduce oil...i dunno whether should i reduce now or what...maybe another 1 week or 1 month...

You have already controlled your acne? Well, on the safe side, just continue eating as prescribe by the doctor for the next 1 month or so till you can feel that there's less oil coming out from your face. Once you've controlled your face oil, then only slowly reduce the intake.

ya,less acne before i eat pill...
but still got some on right side of my face...everytime also that area...so i scare it will spread over all my face...thats y i went dr.ko...i think it is some kind of internal bacterial...leaving me alot of scar on right side of my face only...
izzit possible to eat until face no oil?or is it better for our skin to produce some oil?
*
There's few possible reasons to why acne only popped up at your right face. First of all, did you sleep while laying your right side of your face on the pillow? If it is, this could be the cause as our pillow is filled with lots of germs and bacterias that can stimulate acne growth. Adjust your sleeping posture and the best would be your eyes facing the ceiling. Secondly, regularly change your pillow and bed sheet to ensure them clean at all times. I don't think it is internal. If it's internal, it will popped up at every part of your face.

It is not possible for you to eat until your face had no oil. Only eat the pills everyday untill your face oil have reach an acceptable level. Different individual had different level of tolerance. Once you're satisfied, slowly reduce the intake to one pill in every two days.

The cream is acne cream.. i took the pills for 2 years d i think... couldnt really remember... but i finish the whole course...
i dun think you stop time will suddenly get acne since u have no acne problem before eating... my acne came back i think mostly is because im working night shift now... liver not so productive since i do not sleep at night...

but i suggest u not to take the pill so often as it is proven by articles and my experience that Roaccutane can cause skin to be thinner... read wikipedia and other articles linked to it... my experience is when i went for paint ball... when i got hit, my skin got penetrated easily and leave a permanent scar on my hand... even the owner of the paint ball place said he never see such injuries before since paint ball wouldnt penetrate so much... so its down to my skin... i used to be an active kids who fell alot and stuff when i was young.. i can say that time my skin is not thin.. hehe...

Taking thisl pills will cause your skin to be thinner. Doctor did warned me before that. When you first take these pills, the skin on your face will become dry. Once they get dry, those skin will slowly fall off. The reason behind this was to shed old and damage skin to allow new skin to grow. Somehow, taking these pills too frequent will cause too much skin to fall off.

The best way that I know so far would be reducing your intake of those pills. Depending on these pills too much can bring more harm than good.

but i'm interested on laser treatment.. how long will it take to see difference? n how bout the cost?

You should be able to see the effect after 2-3 week but different individual will yield different results. As for the cost of treatment, depend very much on your face as well. If you face had more acne scar, that will cost you more as compare to those who had relatively little acne scar.
