“My Face Looks Horrible After Mild Pixel - Los Angeles, CA”

Not Worth It

I made an appt with a local medspa for some juvederm for vertical lip lines. That came out extremely well-I was surprised at the improvement. While there it was suggested that I also have some "spot" pixel resurfacing under my eyes and around my mouth to further diminish the vertical lines. So I tried it. My skin before the Pixel was smooth with no crepey texture and no enlarged pores. After Pixel I was red for 2 days, peeled on the 3rd day and by day 4 noticed massive pore enlargement and crepey texture only in the areas the laser had been applied to. because the rest of my skin is so smooth, this damage really stands out. I am now 1 week post "treatment." Has this happened to anyone else? Is it permanent? I can't say that I am happy with this treatment.

HI cp,
Oh that is not good at all to have from a peel. How are things going now?
Thanks,

The damage was from the pixel laser not a TCA peel. It has now been about a month and there is no improvement.
A plastic surgeon that I consulted suggested a TCA peel to try and improve things.
Hi cp,
I'm sorry I must have read it wrong. It's no good either to have damage from the laser. Are you considering trying a what the Plastic Surgeon suggested?
Thanks,
-Britt
