Worth It
Spent: $2,000 in Canada

The PS needed to be "trained" on the new laser, so he asked me in for free to be the subject of the training.  I have a small scar on my upper cheek plus my lower eyelids were crepey looking and a bit loose.

He used injectables for freezing. He also used drops inside the eye and inserted metal shields in the eyes. I still could feel some pain....it felt like I was being flicked with an elastic band. After, my eyes were red, and swollen. I bruised alot for some reason. It is day 9 and the swelling is subsiding.....there is still some and i still have bruising that looks like a shiner on both sides. 

My scar is much improved, and barely visable. My under eyes feel plumper and the tone is already improved. I know it takes 6 weeks to 6 months to see final results due to collagen formation...but I do like what I see so far. I am satisfied with the procedure....although the downtime was indeed not 3 days for me, but more like 2 weeks.

This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.

My Doctor: Name not provided

Great bedside manner....talked me thru the procedure, explained after care.
