Bumpy skin and large pores after fully ablative CO2 normal? (Photos)

December 2, 2017
Asked By:jenfen in Memphis, TN

I have searched the entire website, the internet and called my doctor but I still have no answer. I am almost 2 months post op and my skin in the last two weeks feels bumpy-like a million tiny bumps under the skin ( they look like milia but can’t be removed). My pores suddenly look giant and makeup looks bad.The question has been asked many times, but no direct answer. Is the orange peel texture a complication, a part of the healing process, is it permanent?
