“Mixto sx on hands for fine lines and wrinkles”
MiXto Laser: Worth it
Cost: $449
Pain: Mild
Review of MiXto Laser:Pain: Mild
MiXto Laser satisfaction: Fair
I had Mixto SX performed on my hands to dimish fine lines and wrinkles. It's three day post-procedure and I did not peel. The redness on my hand (especially the right hand)has faded to a light pink. At this point, I do not believe I will ever peel. It's more like a sunburn that is fading. Also, there is no change to the fine lines and wrinkles.
I am realistic and was just hoping for a subtle change when collagen production increases in a few months. I am giving this procedure thumbs up currently because it's too soon to tell what the final results will be.

I had my hands, neck and face done at the same time and my hands responded very differently. The peeling started much later (3 weeks) and was minimal. I am already noticing a nice plumpness developing and that the crepe-y texture has improved tremendously. I think that hands just heal more slowly and less dramatically.

Thanks for your input. At approx. two and one half weeks, I had very mild peeling on my hands but no peeling on the fingers at all. I also noticed plumpness in my hands. I didn't notice any subtle changes in fine lines. Since the office is now charging only $249 on hands, I will try it again. The plumpness really hides most of the ugly veins in my right hand and half on my left hand so the overall appearance has improved.
