I had quite creppy pigmented skin for 37. My job (area i no longer work in) had me working in quite harsh conditions. I did wear SPF 50 daily but it still took its toll. I had Deep Active FX to remove pigmentation and tighten my skin.

I had Deep Active FX Done in November 08 and again in February 09 (4 months apart). My regular dermatologist didnt do it but he recommended me onto another dermatologist.

Since I've had it done my skin has taken on a bumpy/cobblestone/orange peel appearance in fact at times it looks a bit like heat rash. Its quite distressing at as its very noticible and even my regular dermatologist who saw me last month was shocked by it.

I'm just wondering if any of the doctors have come across this before and, if so is there something i can do to reduce it ie another treatment, retinoids etc? Many thanks
