Would Like to Know if Erbium Yag Laser Resurfacing Can Result in Loss of Facial Volume?

Asked By:kathi5981 in Long Beach, CA

I have been recommended a series, six weeks apart, as I am in my sixties. A friend of mine had a single, very effective laser treatment, and although she is wrinkle free, she appears to have lost facial volume. That would be a very bad trade for me. Is this a common side effect?
