You do look anything close to 56. I would love to see a before picture. Just curious did you consider fraxil repair? From what I have read they are the exact same technology just different companies. You look great!!
Dr.s P and W. My mother is 74 years old and has significant facial wrinkles. For years she has wanted to get a face lift however she suffers from COPD and will not risk general anesthesia. In your opinions is Fraxel repair a suitable alternative? or even other CO2 treatments? Obviously she will not get the same results as a face lift, but with multiple repair procedures can you see it making a difference? thanks
Doc please give me your opinion: I had a consult with a Doc about wanting to have CO2 for under eye wrinkles, reduce poor size, and getting rid of sundamage, overall improvement. The doc does not use Fraxel repair, although she does use Restore. She said she uses ActiveFX for more agressive procedures. She said repair would not do anything to get rid for redness from sundamage, and suggested a two step approach. First she recommended 2 sessions of IPL to reduce redness...then ActiveFX...followed by a couple more sessions of IPL to reduce the redness even further. It was my understanding that Repair would in itself remove redness. Your input is most appreciated. Todd
This may not be the right place to ask this question, but would repair be good for treating stretch marks on the hips or stomach? Does any laser treatment work for treating stretch marks.
Please tell me what other treatments you do for highly oily skin. Years ago my dermatologist prescribed Accutane. I took 20mg a day for two weeks then stopped. the oilyness went away completely for about 6 months.
