I had my laser resurfacing treatment exactly 2 weeks ago, and my skin has completely healed (or from what I'm seeing because I don't see scabs and I don't feel any rough patches, red areas, etc). I was wondering if I could squeeze in a microneedling treatment 3 weeks before another laser session?
I had my first Fraxel dual for acne scars 12 days ago. I see the skin is still peeling a bit (especially in the mornings right after I wake up). However, not happy with the results. I see very minimal to no difference to the scars. And, a bit disappointed. :( . I wonder if something went wrong ? I wonder how many sessions does it take. Since the first one wasn't great I got a bit negative. I would be really grateful if i could get some advice / answers from experts here ? Thanks a lot.
I had my first fraxel session two weeks ago (acne scars...had acne conglobata ), my face is no longer red but I think that it looks worse than before. I had a small acne breakout / got some whiteheads, a pimple on my nose and the area on the cheeks right next to the nose looks more uneven than before (like the skin of an orange). Is this normal? .... can I still expect an improvement or did something go wrong? I am supposed to have another ssession next week (4-6 are plannend but I panic now.
I just had Sciton profractional laser done 2 weeks ago and I realize I like the results from fraxel dual laser much better. Is it safe to get fraxel dual afterwards? And when is it safe to do so. I did Mlp 10 micron depth, followed by profractional 150 micron depth. My acne scars and hyper pigmentation is still there. And the Sciton laser added more rolling scars.
I am 16 days post aggressive fraxel co2 laser. My forehead is still red, but that seems to be normal as far as I can tell. Bu, my right cheek has red streaks & red blotches. There is also a red mark between my eyebrows and a darker shaded area on my nose. My doctor prescribed triamcinilone acetonide ointment 0.1% and luxamed, neither of which seem to work. Do you think these lines & blotches will fade? What do you think about what he has prescribed for me? Should I be doing something else?
I had my second treatment with the 1550 Fraxel laser two weeks ago. I had a tanned look and more significant flaking/peeling than first round. All looked great after a week, but then I got an itchy, rough feeling with redness. Patches of itchy rash are showing on my chin, nose, above my lips, and cheeks. They seem to be small fluid filled blisters and involve all of my face except my forehead. Some are larger than others. I have been taking Benadryl. I'm worried about scarring. Can you advise me?
I had fraxel 1550 abit over 2weeks ago. Around the 4th day after the procedure I developed tiny little bumps ever where hundreds of them you can only see in some lighting but to touch skin feel very rough and bumpy. I told my docter and has put me on a steroid tablet for 3days and am on Keflex antibiotic in case of any infection. Nothing has resolved yet I'm very worried and wanting some advice on what it could be or what I can do.
