April 11, 2010
Asked By:aussiedeb in Phoenix

I am considering having some work done on my face,primarly to tighten and take out the red and sun spots. I am a 50 year old female. One office is recommending the Titan, Genesis combo 2 - 3 treatments the other recommends the CO2 fractional, 1 treatment only. Does one give better results than the other?
