Laser Resurfacing or Photo-facial for Fair Skin? (photo)
TerriYJun 17, 2012
I am 42 years old with ultra-fair skin (always burns and freckles, never tans) and am seeing some skin aging issues such as laugh lines, uneven texture, and larger pores (sun damage?). I went in for a facial and skin consultation and was told that my skin is too fair for laser treatment and I should go with photofacial. My skin is somewhat thin, probably average to slightly above average for fair skinned people my age. I am worried that photofacial will bring out freckles permanently. Advice??
