I had fractional CO2 done last on my face and neck to improve overall appearance and get rid of acne marks and some sun damage. I loved the results but decided to do it again this year to tighten neck skin some more, eliminate sun damage on my chest, and tighten periorbital skin. I chose to have more aggressive treatment.

Hi Chulo951... I did the exact same procedure as you... performed last Monday, July 13, 2015 in Mt Pleasant, SC... Your pictures look alot like mine... but I believe that I had lots more swelling... I had small openings for my eyes.. recovery has been a bit rough.. but no doubt that I made the right choice for myself.. I am 62... had a facelift at 46... but it was time to do something that would give me that very fresh faced look... cannot wait until Monday, July 27th... the day I get out of cosmetic jail...

How much longer for it to start getting better?

It has been over 48 hrs since the treatment. I don't feel or look any better. However, swelling has subsided somewhat. At least I can open my eyes

Thank you for sharing your review with progress pictures! Was the treatment painful?

It was a little painful around the mouth, tip of the nose, and lower portion of the sternum . Those body areas are one of the sensitive when it comes to any procedures.

You've gone through all of this and what if anything have you done to assist yourself since then?

I'm just coming back on! Sadly I didn't get some of the issues cleared up! I'm not sure what your question is asking!
