Pixel laser for mild wrinkes and reduction in pore size around nose. they said it woudl brighten my complexion and make my already good skin even better.
I had very good skin to begin with but was talked into this. It has been 4 days and i look AWFUL!!! My skin is still extremely red (they said that would only last 24 hours) and the spots where they did 2 passes (chin and laugh lines) look even worse. I look like i have aged 20 years. My skin started peeling yesterday but it doesn't look good. i want my skin back! will i ever look normal again. i wish i had never, ever done this to myself!

I heard the downtime can be about 10 days for the skin to heal and redness to go away, and the first couple are scary, so maybe wait a few more days and hopefully it wont be as bad.

Hi, I was thinking of having this done for my mild acne scars, and just to tighten up my skin a little. Has your skin settled down & are you still unhappy with the result? I have very fair skin. Thanks

Sounds like you will have a good outcome. The results you saw after 4 days suggest that you had appropriate treatment for acne scars. How are you now? Are you pleased with the way you look now that your healing is complete?

Are you happier now? 4 days after laser treatment is definitely much too early to make decisions about results. How are you now?
