I got the smoothbeam and Vbeam laser done at the same time. The first 24 hours, it looked better. Now, it seems my acne scars are getting deeper instead of less deep. I may just be imaging it in anxious anticipation of results that haven't come, but Idk. I've also gotten a few new breakouts, including one huge puss-filled which I'm now letting dry up. It's become kind of a scab. Last thing - some of the acne scars are filling up with what appears to be new skin - is this normal or a bad sign?
Hi to everyone, I have had my VBeam treatment done (3 days ago) and I have been wondering if it's normal to see this amount of dark red and scabs? I got it done because I had an impetigo infection months ago and it left a small red mark. I have never expected such a dramatic result after VBeam and I'm worried it won't fade so easily, thank you or your opinion, J.
I got some cyst acne raised scars which my dr said it was sb hyper plasia so i got electric needle to zap them off. It's been two weeks and the scabs are gone, but i'm left with these dark purple redissh spots where he zap them off. How long is the heal time and what should I do if it last more than a month? SHould I get VBEAM or just wait it out? I'm putting silcone gel to reduce the raised bump and vitamin C serum to lightening but doesn't seem to make a difference.
This was a few years ago; there was scabbing and bleeding for a week and it took almost three weeks to completely heal. I have not had a treatment since. I was told at the time this was excessive but would like more input.
3 weeks ago I had veingogh treatment for visible veins on my nose...I allowed the scabs to fall off naturally but to my horror not only are the veins still present I now have pitted red scars along with them! My question is how long should I wait before having vbeam treatment on this area to remove the veins / redness in the shallow scars?
My acne lesion was treated with cortisone in Jan-16. There was then atrophy. Spot was filled with Restylene. Few months past and spot began to show signs of atrophy again as well as hyperpigment/scarring. In August, I had a single treatment of V-Beam laser followed by a single treatment of Alex TriV, a month apart. It scabbed and I had pinkish skin after. Was hoping the pink skin would even out with the rest of my skin tone, but it has now darkened / gone back to the color it was pre treatment.
Why has my laser blistered? Is it supposed to be this painful? My doctor told me I would feel no pain, there would be no scabbing. When I phoned the practise nurse for advice, she said I could not put anything on it and only Panafon eill hel. It is now infected
