I had the procedure Wednesday night(face and neck). Numbing cream for 45 min. This hurt so bad I cannot begin to describe it! It went by pretty fast and I got through it. Cried when I got home but had a glass of wine and got over it. Slept pretty good but woke up a few times and re applied the Biafine/keep it in the fridge so it feels really nice and cool on skin. Thursday my skin showed the infamous grid marks and was so red and swollen..Today the skin is browning up in some places and very red in others but not as painful...Will post tomorrow with any new results..

Hello everyone!

Two days ago my skin really started peeling and today it is so amazing! Out of my 3 million freckles that I started out with only 3 or 4 remain. My skin is baby soft and pink. My neck has a few places that still need to peel but the freckles are gone from what I can tell.

Although I had a rough start with the initial pain I can tell you that it was well worth it. Good luck to you!

Today is 1/29 and I am really happy with the results on my face. It did exactly what I had hoped for. My neck though is another story. Coloring of the skin is brownish and I have 2 long dark brown lines at the front of my neck.
I am not sure what to do...Has anyone experienced this?

Great review?

I'm from Austin, too (Howdy!). Where did you have your procedure done?

Hi Austin804, 

Welcome to the community. Doesn't wine seem to help everything ;) , I'm sorry you had such pain, but glad they gave you something for it. Now that it's been a few day, how are you feeling? Please keep us updated and thanks so much for the review.

Thanks,

-Britt
