“Fabulous Results with Mixto Laser for Fine Lines, Crepey Skin, Large Pores and Sun Spots - Orlando, FL”

I am 34 and I was starting to develop alot of fine lines around my eyes and forehead. In addition, I had large pores, crepey skin, sun spots and wrinkles developing around my smile lines. My skin was not in "horrible" shape for my age, but I was starting to be bothered by these changes and decided to be pro-active in treating the issues before they got much worse.

I saw Michele at Dr. S's office for the Mixto laser treatment on my face and neck. The procedure itself was pretty uncomfortable, but not unbearable and I left with what looked like an awful sunburn.

The next day my skin took on a very dark hue with a grid pattern. It looked as if I had rolled my face across a hot waffle iron. On the third day, the dark skin started to peel away and revealed new, plump, line free skin underneath.

I am now 5 days out from having the Mixto and while I don't look 100% normal yet (still have a few areas that need to peel) I can clearly see that the procedure was a complete success. I could not be happier. I know that they say your skin continues to improve with time, so I can't wait to see the final results. I literally look better than I did in my mid twenties!!!

Aquaphor is the devil! If you are at all prone to breakouts the Aquaphor that is recommended for use after the Mixto treatment will most likely lead to a major breakout after your initail peeling period. It is basically the consistancy of Vaseline, so I am sure this stuff really clogs your pores. I broke out really bad for about a week after my skin peeled, but now I am back to normal again. I am now about 3 weeks out from the procedure and my skin looks great. I still have some residual "grid-marks", but overall, I am very happy.
