Yes; I have been back into the same doctor. But she just brushed off my concerns; said "she saw" some difference; but I told her and the her nurses that I do not.
She did not offer to do the laser a second time, even though I said the first time made zero difference on any of my skin issues. And my home magnifying mirror tells me not one red-spot, not one age spot and not one broken capillary changed post laser.
I feel wasted my money; and she was a well respected demotoloisgt and laser specialist in Del Mar. Very expensive.
Thanks for your detailed posts. I had my own face done (IPL, V-Beam, and blu-light) and it turned very red, swelled for about 2 days, peeled for another 3-4 days, and now its 2 weeks later and I do not see any difference in the appearance of my face now than I did before the laser treatment!
I am really disappointed, as it was very expensive. ($900).
I would say my procedure "hurt" but was nothing a normal person couldn't stand. I am so disappointed it didn't work on me after all that.
And yes, it was a performed reputable dermatology doctor & laser specialist I have been seeing for a few years.
I am wondering why your treatment was so "cheap"? (Only $150) I would be curious to know if you went to a real experienced dermatologist who is a laser specialist or just spa technician. Sometimes we get what we pay for.

I can honestly say I see no difference in my skin. Everything that was "red" prior is still red; every "age-spot" is still there.
All I lost was money! I was really hoping to SEE some difference after all that! But nope.
