my skin was looking great until i took a trip to st. lucia and got some sun...now my melasma is back with a vengeance! i was using sunscreen while there but i guess it wasn't enough. now my cheeks are all brown and splotchy again as well as right above my eyebrows and my upper lip! (yuck) my advice to you would be do it but stay out of the sun completely after. i'm wearing a big hat and sunscreen now. i don't regret doing the peels, i think it has made the texture and fine lines better...it's just the melasma that's acting up now. i may just laser (fraxel) it this fall when i don't have to worry about the sun any more. (until next summer)
yes, i'm already planning to do some more in the fall. i am going to wear sunscreen all summer but i'm sure i'll do some damage over the summer! keep me updated on your progress!
I've been using it for 6 months now and I love it! No, I havent seen any change in eye color at all. I don't think there has been 1 case of that in latisse users ever!? They just have to say that as a warning because it has happened rarely to people who drop it directly in their eye as a glaucoma medication. I know people with blue/green eyes who have used it for a couple years now with no problem. I did notice my eyes were a little dry/irritated for the first couple weeks but fine after that.
i think i was done by day 5, maybe just some little spots here and there. i did notice that i had to use the products that came with the peel for weeks after...every time i tried to go back to my usual products (derma quest) i would start peeling again. i used the melanage products for about a month after each peel!
thanks! this my my first time using juvederm and i like it. i've tried restylane in the past and found my lips to be very stiff and unnatural. haven't tried perlane yet. let me know how it goes for you!
