Pros - smoother, tighter skin, decreased wrinkles Cons - long down time for subtle improvement Pain - I had only topical numbing as I had to drive myself home, (this may have also limited the physician's aggressiveness with the treatment) but this is a painful procedure. What I... Read more

I won't lie. Around two hours after the procedure my face was dripping brownish ooze, it hurt and smelled bad. By the eighth hour my face was numb, even to the touch. Day two my face swelled like a grape, my eyes nearly disappeared, I couldn't open my mouth and the smell was just... Read more

Under general anesthesia I had a neck lift, brow lift, and Deep FX all over my face on January 14, 2008. I'm almost 54, youthful in many ways but had a LOT of lines/wrinkles in my cheeks, severe squint lines, jowls, wrinkly neck, and droopy, tired, sad appearance. I will from here on out... Read more

I had mild acne scarring on my cheeks and sun damage. I saw a few doctors and liked Dr. Allison Hughes in Mercer island the best. Her skin was perfect and she seemed so nice and caring. She did the active fx/deep fx laser on my face. I walked out of the office with my face looking like hamburger... Read more

I had this done in Boston about 6 years ago. Not once but twice. After my first procedure, I noticed no difference except I was out 2,500. My plastic surgeon said that sometimes it takes two treatment to work for deep acne scars, so like an idiot I had it done again. The proceduder was... Read more

Wanted to improve skin tone and reduce fine lines and hyperpigmentation. VERY painful and post-procedure first night was terrible -- vomiting, almost passed out, spent the night on the bathroom floor so I would be close to toilet to throw up. 3 months after procedure the brown spots are...

I had active and deep fx done 3 years ago to help improve acne scarring. While it did help to shallow the scarring, it also caused lines or track marks where the deep fx attachment was used. The doctor that performed the procedure said he used modest setting. None the less I am left with... Read more
