The photo facial was a little painful although i contribute the majority of my comfort to inexperience. If this red spot goes away then i would definitely recommend! I've also had two microdermabrasions which helped my skin a lot.

I received my first photofacial today, predominantly for a "cherry" or broken capillary that had surfaced. I've had it for about 8 years or so and it now appears black... reminiscent to lead stuck under the skin. After reading the other questions a doctor responded "Frequently, dark spots become darker over the next several days, and then come to the surface and slough off". Will the red-spot-turned-black come to the surface and flake off?

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

Helpful review?

My Doctor:

Very nice people, worked with me on price and am haveing good results so far!

UPDATE: the black spot did go away [after just under a week i think], and the 'cherry' is now a LOT less visible than before.
