i was at a medi spa about a year ago and my nurse had asked me what i was there for, i explained that i was there for fraxel repair and restore laser and she stopped me in mid sentence and told me not to even bother because i was to young. which then made me start thinking; could i be potentially destroying my young skin if i were to go ahead with the laser? are their more risk if i were to get it done at a younger age? would i wrinkle faster? will i age faster?

I would use Melarase creams and Exfolase lotion followed by Clear and Brilliant laser and light chemical peels. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian#Realself100 Surgeon
