  • Posted to Laser Resufacing is Slightly Painful (W/video) - Roanoke, VA on 17 Nov 2008

    Me again Dahon, I just realized that I hadn't uploaded a photo of my disaster and that you were addressing Hans....But if you look at his and imagine it about 100% worse, than you will get "my" picture. Sorry for the confusion. Actually, you probably don't want to see my photo...it would scare the bejeezes out of everyone. And, the sad thing for my vanity is, I wasn't all that unattractive for my 62 years, but I was a model in my 20's and I just wanted my even toned skin back! Silly Me!

    Hi Dahon, Well, I am at day 13 and those areas that you mentioned are still there. Healing, ever so slowly. I had another doc look at my mess of a face and he said that the administering doc went over those areas more than once, too many times infact and so those are essentially third degree burns and may leave scars. I have one that has also "cracked" through on the bridge of my nose and it is very deep. I think I just ended up with a wacky, un-trained nut case who just happens to be a dermatologist. I am thinking legal action, just to stop her from destroying anyone else's face. I am so happy that you had good results. Thanks for asking and for sharing.

    Hi Hans, I really appreciate your video and comentary. Had I seen it "before" I had my procedure last week, I probably wouldn't have had it. Now after having it, I have to say the pain was excruciating, worse than childbirth. Mine was administered by a doctor and I had asked her to stop, several times, so that I could catch my breath. She did NOT. This is day 7 post procedure and I am still a swollen, red blotchy mess. It might just be the way it was administered, but I am still in a great deal of pain. My treatment was the ActiveFX. During the consult, I had told her I did not want my eyes done. But she did them anyway. Yes, she inserted a metal shield, but did not follow my wishes at all. I say to anyone reading this. Be very careful when selecting who does this procedure. I thought I was....obviously NOT. Thanks again for sharing and I hope that you are happy with your results.
