Asked By:mackers in Great Britain, GB

I am a 24 year old male. I decided to go to a dermatologist aiming to reduce the redness of a burn I had on my nasal tip. I walked out with was a face serum and cleanser. I was told to use both over my whole face. A week later and I was distraught as my skin became extremely thin and the skin either side of my nose became stretched and loose. 6 months and although the majority of my skin has recovered, the loose skin around my nose remains! Is the anything I can do to resolve this!? Ultherapy?
