Update, 2 1/2 months after Treatment 3

July 16, 2014. It has been 2 1/2 months since my last treatment. Attached are some pictures of my arms now. I have been asked if letting more time for healing in between treatments would help the process and I don't honestly think it "helps". I have my appointment for Treatment 4 on July 31. The red is really not budging and I'm unsure of what to do for that.

Treatment 3: May 2, 2014

I had treatment 3 and attached are the pictures from the day of and the day after. Not much change with the red again :( and the fading seems to be slowing. Attached is also a collage of my right arm with the top two pictures being before and the bottom two a day after my third treatment. Not much pain after this treatment but *I did make the mistake of not getting the numbing cream prior to the appointment and it was a HUGE mistake.

4 Weeks Since Treatment #2

Here are some updated pics. Totally healed except for some dry skin; this is because I was out in the Spring sun for a few hours and assumed it would be fine. Bad idea. Very thrilled to see the fading- although this red is giving me a run for my money! :/
