Cottage cheese rippling is probably the fat loss and/or muscle atrophy. The skin also tightens/shrinks with all that heat.. Like the way a dryer shrinks clothes. But then after it wears off the skin basically overly stretches back out and get's loose. Like a used rubber band.

The whole fraxel stimulates collagen is a lie. There is no way a year after the procedure your face should go back the same or look worse if was indeed building collagen.

The whole gaunt thing I've been reading about. Yes count me in. It's because the muscle supporting the cheek has been damaged and it loses the strength to hold the cheek up. This complication can probably never be reversed.. But it will look better with cheek exercises.

You have to blow in your cheeks and hold your breath. Like a trumpet player. And then swish the air from side to side. Keep doing swishing until the cheek muscles are exhausted. 4 Reps of 20 every day or so. You will start seeing the "pump" in your cheeks.. But it's a daily or every other day commitment..

Hi, Yea, all seems well. I've been using it now for a few months. I think I was freaking out a little because of everything I've been through.. It's working pretty well. Definitely firming things up and it hasn't affected the pigment to much.. making it overall a little bit lighter..

A few years ago I had fraxel laser which brought out severe hyperpigmentation. It's been tolerable however because it basically covered my entire face. Made me look like I had a year round tan. Unfortunately though the fraxel also caused some volume loss in my forehead which created some major folds. I had been reading about led light therapy and decided to buy the Baby quasar. After about 6 weeks of use I'm definitely noticing the tightness back in my forehead however I'm also noticing the skin lightening. This is a problem because now because I'm seeing HYPOpigmentation on my cheeks. Mixed within the now lightened hyperpigmentation. I feel like I'm chasing my tail here. Is the Baby Quasar making the white spots? Or is it just that the hyperpigmentation was covering the hypo and now its more noticeable? More importantly, if I stop using the baby quasar on my cheek area will it get dark again and appear more even? Or should I continue to use the light on my cheeks and gamble that it will all eventually even out? Please anybody with some knowledge feel free to offer your thoughts. I am getting depressed over these complications.

If you are still scarring then you are right.. I wouldn't put anything on your face that can burn.. you should wait on that. I was under the assumption that it had calmed down.. I would stick with supplements and eating healthy, protein etc.. My face did firm up on it's own the year after it crashed. So basically it took about 2 years after the treatment to start looking better. Then I started helping it along with the methods I mentioned I pray the same happens for you.. I'm so sorry you are going through this.

Yes it will get firmer but you have to do the facial exercises. I am using the tua viso handheld gadget now, it does it for you. The other thing I have been experimenting with is the baby quasar. It is LED light - NOT HEAT. I have been doing it for over a month now and I'm pretty sure it's working on firming things up. I did a ton of research I am 99.9 percent confident it won't cause any further damage. I know, it's crazy about the accelerated age thing. I looked 30 when I was 40. When I hit 41 I looked 41 - 43. and skin real loose. Just hang in there, follow my routine.. I look about 35 now and my forehead is finally starting to firm again. Not to mention my neck and cheeks etc. It takes a bit but don't give up. Follow the whole routine.
