After 4 years of looking at my laser damaged face and trying less invasive treatments first, I finally decided after 1.5 years of research and seriously thinking about it to get Dermabrasion.
If you see my TCA reviews, you see I stayed with the same doctor. He knows my skin, has been respectful and I was happy with how he carried out my chemical peels.
Currently Day 1 post op and bandaged. Fresh bandage change and follow up this morning. Stay tuned.

Definitely have come a long way in such a short time:
-Transient itchiness is driving me mad.
-Had a couple mini meltdowns due to lack of sleep.
-Disappointed with parts of cheek and nostril were missed where I had laser damage (micro holes).
-Follow up appointments day 1-3 went well, healing on track.
-No longer required to wear dressing however kept forehead bandaged today as it is still somewhat raw.
-Keeping it moist 24/7 with antibiotic ointment & Aquaphor.
-Taking it easy.

Be patient. Full results don't show for at least 6 months. The itching, and redness stayed with me 2 1/2 months post op. I'm very happy with my result, got close to perfection, and plan to do it again when my doctor allows me to.

Trying t, I know full results take months. Just hard with hyperpigmentation and formation of new scars by mouth. Thanks for sharing.
