I had my 1st trtmt done 7 weeks ago using the Pixel Perfect and my 2nd trtmt 2 weeks ago. I've been using Retin-A 3 nights a week for 2 years - I stopped once each trtmt was done but resumed a week after the 1st one. I continued until the 2nd treatment but have not resumed because now I'm reading it can cause problems with healing. Right now my skin looks like it did prior to the 1st trtmt except for some acne - am I still at risk for healing problems? Or would there already be noticable issues?

Consider Benzyl Peroxides, and oral antibiotics. You should be seen by a Dermatologist. Acne is not treated souly by mono therapy. Make sure you wear a good sunscreen daily and reapply when you are out in sun.
Good luck

It is very surprising that you had this kind of reaction after 3 years of using the same product.... I would think that something else was going on at the same time. I would seek an evaluation by a dermatologist - bring photos! - as well as going over every kind of medication (natural and Rx)...
Yes. You are happy with the results on your face so absolutely you should try this around the eyes. The skin is very thin here so avoid over treatment (and of course avoid accidental instillation in the eyes).
