Its been 16 days since my TX4. Pico. Was stronger this time and it left me some pinkish skin after my skin peeled off, wondering if this is normal and if my skin will go back to the normal color or if I should tell the laser lady to go softer with the laser next time. Thank you.
Besides the obvious, which would be significant lightninghow will I know if the Picosure Focus treatment is effective? I am wondering if I have a treatment resistant CALM. I was first treated with Nd:Yag (532nm), but after a week my CALM reappeared. My second treatment involved the Picosure Focus. I was hopeful since the top layer of skin flaked off and revealed lighter skin for 10 days. However, it is past two weeks of my post treatment and the CALM is its original color. Please advise.
I have recently gotten a tattoo about 2 weeks ago and want it removed. I have heard conflicting answers about the time frame for this. One is that I have to wait about 6 weeks for the area to heal before I can start. The other is that it actually could be beneficial to act quickly before the ink sets in, or something along those lines. Is there any truth to this? Are new tattoos generally easier or harder to remove? Thanks very much!
I just had my third session with the picosure laser almost two weeks ago and I am curious if blistering is a good sign? My two prior treatments had no blistering, just scabbing. My blisters popped a few days ago and left new skin underneath it. Another thing Im curious about is if there will be a scab that falls off a little later like my two prior treatments? The reason I am asking is because of the new skin the blister left behind, Im not sure if a scab is still waiting to fall off as well.
I got a treatment done on 2 small spots on my face 2 weeks ago. The spots darkened and flaked off as expected. However, the area around one of my spots also flaked off and healed darker than my regular skin. So now there is a dark circle area surrounding the spot I was trying to treat. The other spot was pink but then healed darker than it was originally. Is this normal? Is there anything I should be doing?
