Spent: $3,000 in Knoxville, TN
PROS: Removed brown spots/freckles under my eyes.
CONS: Did NOTHING else other than lift the few brown spots I had under my eyes. Hurt like HE!!, and that was after taking a sedative and having numbing cream applied all over. I thought I had a high pain threshold until I had Portrait...

Not Worth It
Spent: $1,500 in Kansas City
I am 62 and had Portrait a month ago for lower face and lip wrinkles. Recovery was very quick. I have seen no results at this point. I was wanting much BETTER results. I feel like I wasted money. My Dr. is now wanting to do fillers, but for another 1,200. I just wish I had done the filler instead.

Not Sure

I had numbing cream for an hour, but after the...

Not Sure
Spent: $2,300 in Bay Area, CA
I had this procedure done by a plastic surgeon. He had suggested it as an option instead surgery for drooping eyelids. I had the high intensity treatment done on my entire face and opted to skip the novacaine shots and just go with the numbing cream which, by the way didn't really kick in until...

I had the Sciton Fraxel with Portrait, at an introductory half off price. The only result I got was nearly 6 weeks of terrible acne, finally healing with antibiotics. I now have some uneven tone, which I didn't have before the procedure.It also seems my skin won't peel as easily, leaving it dull...

Portrait: was it worth it?
Portrait Information
Portrait skin treatment involves highly energized nitrogen-based plasma that acts to resurface the skin. Portrait plasma is designed to improve skin tone, skin texture and reverse the signs of aging: sagging skin, wrinkles, brown spots, and other effects of sun damage. Portrait is also used for treating fine lines around the eyes and mouth.
