“Dents in my Face”
Not Worth It
Spent: $700 in Delaware
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.

I have had other skin treatments which went well but they were performed by cosmetic docs who, by the way, charge four times more than an average dermatologist. Now i know what i paid for.
i recall dr sami ( jefferson dermatology) starting the procedure at a setting of 7(?). then he said to the assistant, "turn it up" then "turn it all the way up". late that night my face was bright red with deep white lines in it. these were so severe that i called the emergency room at jefferson. they were quite rude on the phone and told me to call the dermatology dept. it was 3 am fri night. i called. my call was not returned until monday morning. my face appeared to be getting better so i didn't go in. when the dents did,t go away, i tried another doc who also told me the lines would fill in with collagen. i'm still waiting. my skin texture us much worse and the rosacea is still present.
