- 14 Nov 2010
I had a lifestyle life neck and face and a laser treatment. No way was I prepared for the pain that would be involved and the recovery time.
They gave me about 30 painful Novocain shots in my face and sliced me all around my ears. Hearing them cut off skin was disgusting! It took almost two hours of nauseating procedure. When I left it looked like my head had been run over by a truck. I had taken a week off work, but no way was it enough. I returned to work, as I had no choice, 8 days later, and I was so swollen and scars showing. It was a nightmare.
It is now 11 months later, and my ears still hurt, ache, and itch. Do I look good? Yeah, I look a lot better. Maybe 10 years younger, so I guess it is worth it. That sounds crazy, I'm sure, but I guess my looks mean a lot to me. I work in a job with young women who are very competitive, and looks mean a lot. I have to keep up. So, is it worth it? Yes, but just BE PREPARED!!!

Very caring before the procedure, but they don't give a hoot about you after.
