“Just Finished Pixel Treatment - Windsor, ON”

I am 25 years old and I have acne scars on my face. They are not to deep but enough for me to feel self conscious about. I also love the sun and already have sun damage. Knowing that as I get older my skin will only get worse, if I don't do something about it now, made me decided to give pixel a try. I just got home from my first treatment and my face is on fire.

I read a few reviews on here before my appointment to see what people had said about the pain and found most thought it was severe. It is true. I am feeling a lot of discomfort but i am hoping that it is worth it. I do look like a burn victim and that is no exaggeration. I have very light skin but now it is a deep red and brown. No, I will not be going anywhere in public for awhile.

I will write back in a day or so and tell you how things are going. I am saying this is worth it because i am hoping that it is. If I decide that it is not then i will tell you.

I had the laser done on friday and it is now monday. I thought that my face would never start to heal. Yesterday it looked so bad i thought that they may have messed up my face. It is now starting to peel off and is looking somewhat normal. Im not sure if i am willing to do another laser though. I don't know if it was really worth the pain and down time. I will let you know in a few days if my opinion has changed.

Was not worth it to only have one treatment. Maybe it would have turned out better if i had more treatments but i couldn't afford it. Also i ended up getting extreamly bad hyperpigmentation on my face after. I had to use the obagi clear and retin-a to fade it and that took a long time. So in all honesty it sucked! I regret it and wish i never had it done. But this is my opinion. Im sure it worked well for others.
