After pixel laser: more wrinkles around my mouth?
I have had 2 pixel treatments now, the last one with 4 stacks on my entire face and 5 stacks targeted at acne scarring. Where I had deeper acne scarring on my chin(not too visible - but skin puckering when i move my mouth) It seems that I have deeper lines now. It appeared after the first treatment, I was told that these things might appear and then go away as the treatments progressed.
The second treatment made it worse. Is this accurate or is my skin rejecting the procedure. I also have a few faint white lines on my skin from the procedure. Will this go away? I want to continue, as i do see some benefits, ( and i need to correct the negatives that have occured due to the treatments) but i do not want to cause any further harm to my face. Help...... M.
