“Go for It with Total Fx - Peabody, MA”
i have been considering getting Total FX for some time now. i am writing this in hopes that i can answer any questions that anyone might have for me since i am now in my third day of recovery.
there are a lot of things to consider when having this done, realistic down time (a whole week at least); finding a great board certified doctor; and how much pain you are willing to endure.
i will say two things about this procedure, it is Extreme, but, the results are like nothing i have ever seen. first of all the tightening is seen immediately and i mean immediately and the pain is real and not for the faint of heart. i had co2 resurfacing 15 years ago and BOY has the technology changed. total fx blows the old ablative procedure out of the part! i know that all my scars will not be gone but i now see a good 90percent improvement.
if anyone has any questions, just write me. i will see if i can upload before and after pics in the future. my doctor is the best and located in peabody, ma, caring staff. the $4,000 was for face and neck and doctor has monthly deals for $500 break.

just wondering how long the prickly, sensitive to hot/cold sensation lasted
I am 8 days into deep fx laser on cheeks. I have these exact symptoms. Had major swelling first couple days..6 days started getting more intense feelings, with major preassure and burning. My skins looks good without alot of redness...but feels horrible from the inside!..I hope this is normal behavior in the healing process and the nerves are doing what suppose to do and won't last or result from some kind of bad lasting side-effect or damage?Need some peace of mind!!!!freaking out and triing to keep myself together. let me know how everything worked out and if have any advice!!!
Thank you!!!!
