It will be a week tomorrow. Purple (barney color has now turned red). Still very noticable. I have not left the house. I look like I have been punched in both cheeks and the red spots all over my nose look ridiculous. I can't go thru the summer like this! I was told it would take a week to 10 days for bruising to "go away" by assistant at MD office. I also gave the negative review at this time due to the look of my face. The deep red marks all over my nose are so awful looking. I had little red cappillaries prior to treatment but thought "Hey if there is a way to get rid of them and have a nice even skin tone, whynot?" I thought if I had it done I would not have to worry about covering the broken areas all the time..If this really takes 8 weeks for the red spots all over my nose (looks like polka- dots, seriously)to go away I will be so upset that I was not well informed. I mean I was shocked right after treatment to look in the mirror they handed me. It was dark dark purple and I really was scared of what I was looking at! I am going to call them tomorrow at the one week mark and see if this can be resolved at all.
I am so sorry. I hope you were compensated. At least post something in the paper, on-line or with the Better Business Bureau about your doctor and your experience so no one else goes thru this.!
