Since i had Laser treatment Long time ago for a Scar i have some Redness / darkness on my nose and i want to know if its better to use a fractional Laser or something Like vbeam for that. Thanks !
Can I expect quick results from 1 treatment since the area is so small/ light pink? Do I have to use a high setting to see quick results even though the spot is so small? Thank you!
I have a small recent hypertrophic scar on my nose, which was healing fine but remained slightly red and very slightly raised. I went to a dermatologist today who suggested VBeam and performed a few zaps using a non-purpuric module, so wasn't too intense and did not hurt. However, my scar instantly swelled up and became more raised and red right after, this has continued for 6 hours, I'm scared it won't improve. If I put pressure on the scar it remains flat for a while before raising again.
I'm going to have fractional laser for a slightly indented and textured scar but doctor also wanna do v beam laser because he can see some pinkness by his goggle. I know v beam is good for red and raised scar but im wondering if it's proper for a indented scar. Doctor thinks reduce some redness will give it overall better result combine with fractional laser but I'm worried v beam will make indented scar more indented. So is the risk overriding the benefits since my redness is not bad anyway?
Hey, I've contacted 3 different clinics. 1 hospital offered to do V-beam treatment and that I may need 4-5 sessions for best results. They said 1 treatment will give about 20-30% improvement The other 2 clinics both offered Picoway laser treatment and that I need about 10 sessions. Obviously I'm no doctor, so what is really the best choice for me to fix the scar across my chest to make it less noticeable?
Ive had one Fraxel Re:Store for the crepey skin Ive developed from what I believe is the flushing from Rosacea, my true question is does Rosacea cause skin creepiness? Is this the source as to why Ive developed such crepey skin? Does the intense flushing cause skin thinning? I clean and moisturize daily, Id just hate to feel Im wasting money on Fraxel treatments hoping its going to improve the quality of skin when actually its my rosacea thats preventing it from improving.
I had the vbeam laser treatment done to my breast augmentation scars (crease under the breast) and I am wondering if the laser could have done harm to my implants? I don't have any symptoms but am curious if it would penetrate that far. Thanks!
