had a second smartdot this time i have itching and tram lines left on my neck,also my skin feels like sandpaper ,when i look close under a good light i can see all the dots ,can someone explain why this would happen as i had no problems 1st time round, can i have a tca peel to get rid off the dots or would another laser be better.
This is not an easy question to answer without a bit more information. I am not sure if your first treatment was also done on the neck area. Perhaps you can gain some reassurance knowing that the dots you see are likely a good sign. The rate at which the skin cells turnover on the neck is slower than that on the face. What you are experiencing can be completely normal. I would not recommend a tca peel at this time. If you are the least bit concerned, call your doctor. Good luck!
Is laser tightening and laser resurfacing best done by a board certified plastic surgeon or can I see a board certified dermatologist with experience in these procedures? My city has many board certified dermatologists but only 1 board certified plastic surgeon that I could find and it is hard to get an appointment with her. Please note, I am looking strictly at laser skin procedures not extensive surgery. I am new at this whole thing, thanks!
Based on their medical training, most board certified dermatologists have significant laser expertise. Your best bet is to visit a dermatologist who has a laser you desire (e.g., Fraxel, Fractionated C02 and Erbium lasers for resurfacing and Radiofrequency or Infrared lasers for skin tightening). If the practice has these lasers, it will advertise them on the website and the dermatologist will use them for various cosmetic treatments. For resurfacing procedures, in order to get optimal results, ensure that the dermatologist is performing these procedures.
Good luck.
