    I had my lsl in mid January. so far I am happy with the results. They are not perfect. Some of my "flaws" have returned , but not enough to matter. It actually makes me look more normal, not perfect. The numbness bothers me less. No itching to speak of. No one that has heard me talk about this operation is brave enough to withstand the horrible pain of the needles but everyone loves my results. My doctor is from Hopkins. I,too, am from that area of the country and it is why I chose him.

    Guys! Guys! Everyone is entitled to their opinion. If you are happy with your results, that's wonderful. If you are unhappy you have my compassion. Someone needs to let go of some very tightly held reins.
    Give the other person the last word; YOu'll be surprised how freeing it is.
    By the way, I,too, had the LSL . It's only been 1 1/2 months but so far I am pleased. Some imperfections have returned but overall I am very pleased. The lidocaine injections were painful and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone other than a person very,very unhappy with their facial aging, as I was. Research your individual doctor. Remember, very few of us have probably had the same doctor. My doctor was well trained and very upfront with me about the numbness taking several more months before it goes away and also that some more "imperfections" may return.
    Let go of the bickering and either enjoy your results or see if you can take legal action. Mud-throwing only demeans you.
    (And if anyone accuses me of working for LSL, you couldn't be more wrong.......But what you think of me is none of my business.)

    YOu say you have no tightness or numbness but that your incisions are "alive." Please explain.
    Also, you are the ONLY person on any of these sites who lost numbness/tightness in 6 months. Ummmmm.......pretty amazing.
