I'm in the midst of my full second day (did the Pearl Friday after Thanksgiving and now it's Sunday around 2pm) and I am seriously hoping it's all worth it!
I am documenting the changes carefully and I look HORRIFIC. I would recommend using a LOT of numbing creme prior to this procedure...I'm not going to lie, it was very painful. (They should send this thing to Gitmo!)
I looked bad the first 2 days but today it's really bad. I am continuing to clean with Cetaphil as recommended and soaking with the vinegar and cold water compresses and then applying Vaseline (which I HATE!!).
I am supposed to go to work tomorrow but I don't see it happening. You can't wear makeup til everything peels and I'm a teacher and I think I'd scare the bejesus out of my class!
I would say this is a four to five day downtime....but I saw what happened with the redhead and her skin looked amazing after five days...so let's hope!
