My face is great, I love my neck. I have not been able to go out of the house for more than 3 hours in the past 6 months due to severe itching, and open sores from scratching that have not yet healed.

What type of essential oils are you using?

Hi- from butterflyessenials.com. I use Malenia, Paine, Deeper (great for sore muscles). Then I use a carrier oil-coconut oil, either the oil you can buy in the store that is a "solid", it melts in your hands, you can cook with it (delicious flavor) or take a teaspoon and eat it (sounds gross, but it is delicious) or use it for a great moisturizer and hair conditioner. I don't know anything about essential oils, my girlfriend does, and she suggested these. Along with Neurontin, these oils, 2-3 times a day (just 3-4 drops of each) have worked like a charm. They have other various uses , but I don't know what they are yet!

Your skin looks amazing! Did you have something to address the texture? I'm definitely going to try those oils. I had a lower eyelid surgery 7 1/2 months ago (which has turned out horribly) and the itching is still so bad. Is that why they gave you neurontin?

I am very happy with my skin. I had laser on my upper lip and chin. Yes, the Neurontin 300 mg. up to 3 per day. I only need 1 per day at this time. 99% of the itching has gone away.

What is neurontin? What is it used for? Would it help me?

It is a medication prescribed for nerve damage itching. It is a prescription, you can ask your doctor for it.

Neuron tin is for nerve pain,chronic pain and seizures.

Did you have the same doctor do the laser when you had the surgery?

Why do you say "not allowed to say" as the doctor. You absolutely can and should say who you went to. It is your experience and especially seeing you cannot sue anyway, you should reveal your doctor. I would.

I'm replying for Pam.. I believe her doctor made her sign something legal so she can't say his name or she could be in trouble...she will explain it.

I signed a release when I received a refund, and agreed to not post name of doctor who could sue me if I post his name. Fun huh? Can't warn any future patients.

Many of us with bad surgeries are bullied and threatened into silence of mentioning surgeons names. I was. They can actually sue you.

They can try. But in Washington state, which is where RealSelf is located, there is an anti-SLAPP law that can help protect reviewers.

Doesn't make sense that no lawyer would take your case but you are told that if you mention his name he will sue you? Who would take his case and sue you for what????
August 25, 2014
But we can't sue them? Doesn't make sense.

If she agreed not to name him in order to get the money, and she does -- it's breach of contract
April 14, 2015
But if there is non-disclosure, surgeons can be named. Those of us who haven't gotten any $ back from our "surgeon" but had a terrible experience should be free to name him/her.

Finally a before set of pics. The doctor had me lower my chin for all, and no smile. The brow lift was not done, but a huge incision was made. I now am getting little bumps on top of my head and they are starting to itch, OMG, not again! I cannot tell you how wonderful this past week has been - on Neurontin and using essential oils with cocoanut oil as a carrier oil. No itching 99% of the time. I never would have believed it, but my girlfriend insisted I try the oils. She has been after me for 4 years to do them, and I said no--until now!
