I had COs laser around my eyes and on the front of my thighs for stretch marks. It looks good except that now (2.5 months out) I have been left with redness in those areas. Is this permanent? What can I do to bring the skin back to a more normal color?
I am a petite (size 6/8), healthy 24 y/o. I have had these stretch marks, and cellulite, in the outer thigh/bum area since I was 15/16. I have been advised different treatments to improve the appearance of these stretch marks and would like to understand whether you would recommend Profound RF, Fraxel or Fractional C02 laser. Which will provide optimal results, and how many sessions would be needed approx. Would any of these treatments also help reduce the appearance of cellulite? Thanks, A.
I had CO2 laser done for stretch marks on my thighs and lower back, and I am currently using Tazorac and 4% hydroquinone cream but there is still a dark/dull redness persisting in all areas 13 months after treatment. There also is an area of scarring from when I picked at it a week after the laser treatment. Am I stuck with this redness forever or is there a solution?
I had my procedure on 9/14/16. I still have the discoloration from the procedure and also my skin is like sandpaper and I have more wrinkles especially around my knees, actually creases now! How long before they go back to normal, even if this procedure does not work, will the skin on my legs at least go back to the way they were: no discoloration and way less dryness and wrinkled skin??? That's all I'm hoping for at this point. (I am a caucasion female 56 years old.) Thank you
I am an african american female with discoloration in different areas of my body. I recently had CO2 Fraxel laser resurfacing of the face to help with discolorations due to acne scars and sun damage. I absolutely love the results and was wondering if the laser could be used in other areas of the body to treat discolorations. I am particularly interested in treating my buttocks and thighs. If not, what are some alternative treatments to even my skin tone without using bleaching creams?
