“Dents in my face”
Pixel laser: NOT worth it
Cost: $700
Pain: Uncomfortable
Cost: $700
Pain: Uncomfortable
Pixel laser satisfaction: Poor
I do not recommend my Pixel laser provider:
Why: Great service, not sure they have enough experience with this procedure
I thought the pain was tolerable but I do have a high tolerance to pain. Burned during the procedure, after an hour I was fine. She did a lot of stacking around my deeper wrinkles and single passes where my skin was smoother.
After 7 days I could go out in public. My face looked more wrinkled than before and I had dents in my face. 3 months later I still have dents in my face and my wrinkles have only slightly improved. The texture of my skin looks worse than it did before. I was told that the dents would fill in with new collagen and my face would look much smoother. I'm still waiting.

Hi! thanks for your post. Just wondering how your face is looking now? do you still have dents? Do you think they made a mistake when they treated you? Thanks for your insight. Mary

Hi, 8 months later. Yes I still have dents but they have diminished. My skin is looking smoother and some of the roughness that I was hoping to address has smoothed out. Fine lines and deep wrinkles have also diminished (they are still there just not as bad) but in bright light, and I'm outside a lot, you can still see the dents.
