Well... today was the day. I have been home just a few hours. I am still loopy from meds and plan to keep taking them. I had 1mg of xanax, 100mg of tramadol and a steriod Medpro pack before the procedure began. They numbed my face twice with topical anesthetic lotion. The procedure did hurt. I stayed as still as a board.... the medical assistant said ppst procedure she actually checked my stomach a few times to make sure I was brwathing cause I was so still. I saw no choice but be still or something very bad could happen!
After the procedure it hurt soooo badly. Soooo much that for about an hour I didnt know what to do with this horrid pain as I bkew ice cold air on my face with a fan labeled smart cool.
I took a third tramadol and the medical assistant put some more numbing cream on me and I was finally able to get up and leave.

I feel a lot better now...its 3pm and we started at 9 am. I look soooooo swolen. Pray for me and a speedy beautiful recovery.

Dr. Janowski's has my trust. His office staff is kind, honest, caring, respectful, and competent. I have had multiple services and am beyond pleased. I am even getting Vitamin B shots there now! Never do these procedures unless you have an experienced MD.... and if you can...use Dr J!

Your healing process should be going on the right track, nothing compared to what happened to my face with a laser CO2 stupid procedure 9 months ago.

I don´t know, what I know is that a big spot is still present in my face and I don´t know how to heal it. I was told it fades away with time, but I don´t know if is there any complemental treatment that could accelerate the healing process. Who should be the greatest expert on this field? Who shell I consult?

Day 2. blind as a bat

Today was day 2. Pain was down. Swelling seemed the same. I took my steroids. I couldn't get contacts in or wear glasses. Since I am super nearsighted (-10) this was big. Aone small flaking of yellowish junk came off in the regenex and aquaphor. Yick.
