I'm 40 with light wrinkles and crepiness...
- 5 Jul 2011
I'm 40 with light wrinkles and crepiness beginning under my eyes that I wanted to tighten up and to get rid of freckles. I had Active & Deep FX done in January by a very skilled, well known dr.
After the pain, swelling, itching, and peeling subsided after 7 days, and my skin was nice and plump and pink, I was told I'd see even more results at 3-5 months. Well, it's been a little over 5 months since my Active & Deep FX, and my freckles have returned over my nose and cheeks (even with using 50+ sun screen every day), and worse, the wrinkles and crepiness under my eyes is much more pronounced than before.
I should have left well enough alone or just gone in for fillers instead. This was a total waste of time and money. I had reasonable expectations, but what I got was $1000 worth of disappointment.
Great review?
My Doctor: name not provided
My rating:
Doctor seemed to know what he was doing, very knowledgeable. I think it was just the procedure itself. It promises too much and delivers little.
