Millefiori Medical Skin Rejuvenation - Melbourne

Wear sunscreen is a message I would tell my younger self. I was raised on baby oil bakes and the notion that since I was Asian, I didn’t need sunscreen. I didn’t burn, I tanned. Sunscreen was for the people that burned. I was naturally an outdoorsy type of girl and I also wanted to be like all the other girls with bronzed skin, so I laid out on black rooftops and wore no sun protection. Fast forward a few decades to major PSAs on melanoma and the drawbacks of sun damage: spots and wrinkles. I have been wanting to get rid of my sunspots for several years. I researched how to get rid of my sunspots month after month. A variety of creams and magic potions ranging in price points were purchased and applied that promised to eliminate my sunspots, all to no avail. I spent hours watching makeup tutorials and tried various makeup techniques and products to try and balance my uneven skin tone and cover the dark spots, all of this was met with little success. I researched higher-end options like IPL but due to my skin tone, the risk of hyperpigmentation and hypopigmentation was high. Recently, PicoSure came to the market. It was touted to be a prime laser for a variety of skin tones, to include mine. I googled Picosure and Melbourne, Florida and found two local businesses that offered the treatment. I went to one establishment because it was closest to my house. I talked with the provider that would do the treatment and then a business manager. This felt “sales-y” and impersonal. When I asked for pictures of actual patients that they had treated in a follow-up email, they sent stock photos. I then went to Millefiori. The staff was warm, friendly, non-judgmental and professional. Iris spoke to me about the procedure and my lifestyle. Her vast experience in the field, in regards to both the technology and the range of skin types treated, was confidence inspiring. She showed me an actual patient that she treated with the Picosure and offered to do a test spot first. She was open to my questions, concerns, and feedback. Iris has a gentle approach. She communicates often and clearly on what she is going to do next. She also provides clear pre and post-procedure instructions. I never felt like a “number” with her or the staff. The procedure itself has some discomfort, but downtime is minimal. For me, on Day Four, my skin was dramatically clearer and damn sunspots begone! I feel much more confident and happy with my skin. My skin tone is balanced and the darkest of spots are either gone or have lightened considerably. Before I was a bit self-conscious about my skin but now, I feel comfortable going out without any foundation. I highly recommend the PicoSure treatment with Iris at Millefiori. This recommendation is based on the results and the professionalism, expertise, and patient focus of the establishment.
