I have very large pores and orange peel skin with deep wrinkles around my mouth and under my eyes.3 years ago I went for a pearl laser, and have since had 6 dermapen treatments. I use Retin-A cream twice a week. Nothing I'm doing seems to help. Please advise what treatments would best suit my problem.
Answer: Co2 laser Thank you for your question. CO2 laser skin resurfacing treatment is very beneficial for making acne scars diminish. This is done by removing deeper layers of damaged skin and stimulating the regeneration of healthy skin underneath. This treatment is also beneficial for uneven pigmentation, photodamage, fine lines and wrinkles, precancerous spots, and a host of other skin imperfections and benign lesions. If you believe you may be a candidate for CO2 laser skin resurfacing treatment, a qualified cosmetic surgeon or dermatologist can carefully analyze your skin and determine if the procedure is right for you.

Answer: Treatment options for this would be doing a chemical peel combined with LaseMD Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Answer: Vivace Microneedling, Hydrafacial, Sciton Halo for Skin Texture Hi and thank you for your question! Each of us is born with and predisposed to certain type of skin. Skin with larger pores is likely more oily and more oily skin usually results in not as many wrinkles! So that is a good thing! That said, we can help it appear a bit more smooth and the pores less noticeable over time with a variety of treatments. You would definitely benefit from an medical grade skin care regime, regular Hydrafacials, regular microneedling treatments with PRP (even more so Vivace Micro needling with PRP), and every year or two and heavier duty laser treatment like the Sciton Micropeel, Contour or Halo. Best of luck, Dr. Grant Stevens
