I had a small brownish spot, less than the size of a pea, on my hand. My Beverly Hills Dermatologist told me I could have lasers used on it one or two times in order for it to go away and I happily agreed. The day I showed up for the lasers, an electric needle was used instead called a Hyfrecator. I did not know she was going to change methods. The light brown spot has been traded for a red shiny scar. It has been two months and I have been diligent about sun block. Will this go away?
7 weeks post Fraxel re:store treatment for trrating melasma. Now i have white spots hypopigmentation all over my face wich i can not cover because it stills appear under makeup. Im very depressed. I asked for a post fraxel rendezvous with dermatologist to see whats the matter he tells i may need another one. Her nurse passed by after he got out of the room and told me if she was me she would totally go for obagi treatment 550$ box cream package before going on fraxel #2. What should i do? :-(
I had 141 age spots treated with liquid nitrogen. But now the brown spots are bigger and darker than ever, some with a little pink spot in the center. My dermatologist said they will fade and I should exfoliate often but I look horrible. I was expecting nice pink skin after the crusting came off. How long will it take to get the nice new skin. I am being super careful with sun screen and clothing protection.
I recently had Erbium Laser Resurfacing 3 months ago and noticed small red veins popping up really bad on the right side of my face. I had a few before the laser but was told the laser would help. I have already visited the doctor who preformed the resurfacing when I first noticed the veins and he just told me it comes with age. Is there anything I can do about this? Or am I stuck with them?
I was quite pleased with the improvement I saw 3/4 weeks after my treatment but now at nearly 7 weeks it seems my scars are returning . Will I have any further improvement from now on ?. Would it be possible to have a further laser treatment to get more improvement ?My doctor said before my treatment I could only have one but have read about people having 2 or 3 . Is there anything else I could try ?.
I have a cafe au lait spot on my face. I have treated it with laser for 3 time every three months. It is now two months away from my last treatment and it is lighter than before. I want to ask whether I should do laser again and which kind of laser is best for brown birthmark. Can you recommend some good doctors in Los Angeles?
Hello, 8 weeks ago I had a Micro laser peel (20 microns) and profractional (450 microns ) - Sciton is the brand of the laser - ... I now have the face quite red. I had applied Topicort for 10 days and even though it has improved, redness is still significant. Which procedure would you recommend?
Hello, I am 8 weeks out of laser resurfacing (20 microns Micro Peel + 450 microns profractional - Scition). It took four weeks for the redness to start to fade out but it its not doing it evenly (in some areas the skin is darker pink in other light pink and in others starting to be my skin color). Is there anything I can do to accelerate this process. Can a VBeam laser help out? Are there any risk on doing the VBeam laser 9 weeks after the resurfacing? Thank you,
