I had my first treatment done using picosure. I've never had a reaction like this before but I'm sure it may be due to a better quality laser. I experienced a blister forming at the site but I kept the area moist and it completely resolved. I can feel scab like skin on the lower part of the tattoo but no peeling. The hyperpigmentation is what is most alarming as I had no blistering or hyperpigmentation with the previous 7 treatments (different laser). Is this normal?
Hello there. I have done pigmentation laser using Pico for my 2 dark spots around my eyes last week..exactly 7 days ago. The scabs has peeled off but now I realise that the skin is still dark. I have consulted my dermatologist yesterday and he said I need to wait further for full results. How long I need to wait as I'm kinda worried. I am an Asian with mix parentage (Chinese-Indian) so my doctor said Pico is the best for my skin n assured one treatment is enough for me. Shall I be worried?
I did picosure on my entire back for acne scars about a month ago. The doctor then did something a little more aggressive and it caused scabbing of the area after a week, here is what it looks like now, it has faded a little but Im worried this will stop. Is this normal?
Its been 5 days since having sun spots removal with Picosure Focus. Now that the scabs fell off Im left with lighter skin underneath. My Dr says its the normal process and my new skin will repigmentate. I would like to know if this is correct and what would be the time frame? Really need a second opinion. Thank you
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 have brown birthmark and acne scar on my face and planning to remove it via the laser. 1) if picosure can remove them? 2) If the picosure will cause the scab? 3) the down time? 4) if i can use the dermaroller mask after the picosure during the down time? 5) could anyone give me some recommendation for the doctor in bay area?
When I research PICO lasers and other peoples experiences and outcomes, it seems like there is quite a disparity between some people having virtually no down time-to other people having very red and scabbed over looking faces for many days after. I imagine that means the laser is at different intensities, but whats the difference? Is getting PICO where my face isnt red and scabby not as good and mean my results arent going to be as optimal? Why would someone have a scabbed face versus not?
