“Laser peel to remove sun spots made hyperpigmentation worse”
Laser peel: NOT worth it
Cost: $1,200
Pain: Worst possible
Pain: Worst possible
Laser peel satisfaction: Poor
I do not recommend my Laser peel provider: Name not provided
Why: Be very careful. Some doctors just want you to spend money.
You could use "Whitening gel".
I had 3 laser treatment on my face. Soon after the skin color turned a dark brown within the area that was treated. Dr said that was because of hyper-pigmentation. I did it to remove sun spots on my face.
My question is: My doctor, a dermatologist, knew I had a hyper-pigmentation condition before the laser treatment. Should the doctor have performed this treatment. Next Question: Now how can I treat this huge dark brown spot on both of my cheeks? My skin was damaged by the treatment and has become very sensitive. What would you recommend to help me treat my skin?
