I have dark underarm and too shy to wear sleeveless. Can Pixel Laser make my underarm whiter? If yes, how many session does it usually take and cost?
Although pixel laser can help with some discoloration, chemical peels are the best option. Topical discolorating agents will be first choice. Lasers such as fraxel and pixel would be an option if above mentioned treatments does not respond.
What is the difference between fraxel and pixel and when should each be used? How effective is either in removing lines from upper lip and mistakes/bumps on lower jaw caused by injections?
Fraxel is a brand name of a laser made by Solta; Pixel is a brand name from a company called Alma. Both are fractional lasers and both can improve the lines of the upper lip.
In terms of the bumps of the injections: some can be improved, some cannot. It would be impossible to give advice without seeing this in person.
The derm clinic I've gone to (I live overseas) says the CO2 Pixel laser is the laser they use...but I'm a little confused. Is it the same as Fraxel?
Fraxel was the first fractionated laser to come onto the market and has remained among the leaders in this technology. In my opion, Fraxel Re:pair, a CO2 fractionated laser and the Deep FX from Ultrapulse are the two leaders in this technology. The treatments will cost more but are well worth it. I have seen many patients in my practice who had these lower cost fractionated laser treatments often resulted in minimal results, prolonged downtime and higher risks of complications.
My advice, stick with the leaders--Fraxel Re:pair or Deep FX.
