WORTH IT$1,200

I am a former smoker, smoked a lot since 14 yrs old. Also prone to acne so I decided to treat myself with laser. I have heard so much nice rewiews and seen astounding before and after pictures. My plastic surgeon has given me botox couple of times before but I wanted something more. Too young to have a full facelift I think.

Excellent doctor. He recommended me to take diapam before laser and also gave painkillers. I slept with the numbing cream on until they started lasering. Did not hurt. Even today (its day 1 after the procedure) hasnt been at all sore. Just looks terrible :)

I use Bepanthen cream and eat Burana 800mg to ease the swelling and redness. Bebanthen is quite thick and it makes my skin push whiteheads. Also sticks to bedsheets and pillowcases so lots of washing up to be done :)
