profractional xc laser-preferred setting

Question

What is good setting for profractional xc for moderate wrinkles around mouth? Some of them r deep. Max downtime is 7 days. I can be pink on the 8th day, just don't want to look like I was in a fight. Don't want to have to do more than 2x. Also thinking bbl and mlp. Thank you

Thanks for your question, Oldjo, but unfortunately, there are no simple formulas, and the settings require considerable clinical judgement.  The choice is influenced by skin thickness, pigment, and condition, as well as amount of down time, and the degree of improvement contemplated.  It is common to perform a MLP in the same setting, and BBL can be a great adjunct to improve pigment.  Discuss your goals at length with your provider and best of luck!

No such setting, as the level of improvement will depend on your skin - namely the amount of wrinkling, your age, downtime and ethnic skin type. Your specialist will guide you as to the level, and warn you well ahead of the procedure the expected downtime. All the best, Dr Davin S. Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
