Jennifer L. Kish, DO

Post op day 4 and having a lot of discomfort and numbness. Pain is certainly tolerable, but I was told with the larger 35 min application that most patients have little no no pain. I must be the 1%. My upper abdominal region is much more sore and tender to touch then my lower which is just unusually numb

Forever young BBL hero has ruined my face. I had the treatment 1 month ago for some minor sunspots. A doctor performed the treatment to my entire face. Immediately after face was red/swollen, brown spots were dark. They peppered and fell off within 10-12 days. However the texture of my skin completely changed. Orange peel all over, crepey patch on forehead, vertical lines below eyes and around nose. I went for a follow up and she said it’s normal however I knew it was not. 2 wks after I started getting pain in my cheeks and eyes. All of the sudden I noticed changes including my eyes sinking, cheek fat pads deteriorating, chin shriveling, forehead fat pad shriveling, temples sunken in. Now when I look in the mirror I can see both ears bc the lateral fat pad is no longer there. My face hurts most days. It’s also starting to affect my vision.
I have been told that this laser cannot get down to fat, however that is incorrect. Any device with enough thermal energy can penetrate fat. I believe I was over treated and this device should be banned. I am completely devastated to the point where I don’t even know if I can work. So far I’m using very gentle skin care and moisturizers. Spf with zinc oxide.
I will need dermal fillers at a minimum but not even sure when I should get them as I don’t know when this destruction will stop.
If anyone else has had similar experience with BBL/IPL please help!!!!
And if you’re thinking about forever young BBL please do not proceed. Just do a chemical peel. Will add pictures later
