I asked the doctor if I could also get CO2 for my upper lip and she said that I was not a good candidate. I would like to get a more clear answer and why and what are my options. I have been getting Botox on my upper lips for a couple of years and it does help but was hoping by now to get some type of laser so the results would last longer. Why is it okay for my face to get the CO2 under my eye but not for my lip area. Thank you in advance for an answer.
It's slightly discolored and is very sunken, what is my best option? I have been looking at CO2 or Halo lasers as well as microneedling and fillers, which I already have in my lips from 12-13 months ago. I did have the upper area filled with cannula in October - immediately after I had a good result but I think it was just the swelling. It didn't last and I didn't go back. I am 39.
Hi On the second day I started peeling a lot.. The skin under is really red. I only wash it at night and Im re-applying Aquaphor. but it stays then it melts almost (skin is hot) and turns into a bit of crusty.. I applied ice on the first night.. I think it made peel faster. should i use fucidin ongment before applying the Aquaphor? Is it normal that Im peeling that soon after treatment and liquid comes out..I dont think its puss ..??What about apple cider vinegar Thank you.
I did co2 laser resurfacing 8 weeks and the wrinkles on my upper lip have come back. Initial around 3 weeks they were gone and notice them coming back around 6 weeks. The whole reason I went through this terrifying process was for my upper lip. Any other treatments for that area ? And is this it or will they go away over time ?
Had CO2/Erbium laser on periorbital area and upper lip. I had Fraxel Restore on whole face and Ulthera on lower face and neck. Here it is ten days later and my upper lip has nerve damage and still does not move right. I see it when I go to suck on a straw. I hope and presume this is temporary.
I already had 1 treatment of CO2. I already got my 1 treatment of CO2 fractional laser done in sept 2021, half face was done. Now will 2 more treatments of fractional CO2 laser give me the same results as having 1 treatment of Erbium fully ablative for the upper and lower lips?
