“Sciton microlaser peel”
Laser peel: Worth it
Pain: Mild
I am happy so far. I was not expecting the first treatment to do a whole lot..It definitely helped the large pores on my cheeks, helped small lines and shallow acne scars.. I had a micro laser peel set on 8 for my forehead and 10 for the rest of my face. forehead probably should have been set on 10 also.
First day hurt like a really bad sunburn, really not that bad though, no pain after first day..I had a driver so I could hide, but I usually don't leave the house without makeup.
She blew really cold air on my face, it stung a little, not bad, numbing cream and Vaseline after. I had peeling for 7 days. I was kind of talked into a $100.00 small bottle of lotion. I think a good 30.00 lotion at a health store would have worked. I think I will get another one, or maybe try another laser...(30 years old, female)

I just got my second Pixel lazer peel. I guess it is a fractional lazer. The first one improved my skin but didn't get some of the scaring. I just went back for a touch up around my templs and jaw. It was a lot more intense. Even though the section is smaller I feel like I am in more pain now. The terms I hear were that they ran it at 1800 and stacked it at 5. So it was 5 quick shocks rather then the 1500 and 4 shocks that I got last ime. So it was more, it hurt a lot more. My body was shaking when it was done.
