WORTH IT
Feeling great, my skin looks great, and still a little red as I am fair by nature. Very happy with results, not weird side effects.

One month in to the day!
I feel like I am pretty healed but there is still some pink to my skin. It feels healthy and beautiful. I am very pleased with the results, and I will post some pictures shortly. I would do it again in a heartbeat. I plan on doing more of the same in the future, especially around my eyes.

Your skin looks great! And, your healing seemed easier than I thought it would be. Did you have to take any pain medication? Was it very painful healing?
I'm going for a consult on 11/16/17, Thanks

No no pain medication, the pain was during the procedure and after for about 1 hour then no pain. Healing was not painful at all, it was just strange feeling with the swelling and skin cycles. I am still pink but my skin looks great!

I still have redness and very slight peeling here and there on my face, I am pleased with the results as I see very diminished lines around my eyes and mouth. The lines on my cheeks are there but less deep, I feel like I may do more for those areas on my face in the future. All in all worth it

I have an appt scheduled on Friday to have this procedure done and have to return to work on Tuesday. Would you have felt comfortable go to work on day 5 with makeup on?
yes you will be ok with makeup on, your skin might be itchy and slightly peeling. I am fair skinned so it seems to show as red a little more than those with darker skin, the swelling should be gone by then also. Your skin will also feel tight for about 8 days, that is normal.. good luck, I truly believe it is worth it..
Awesome! Thank you so much for replying
No problem and honestly if you have ANY worries or questions as you go, please ask. It looked pretty bad day 2 but it corrected very quickly and no pain the next days, just very hot for about 1 to 2 hours afterwards max. I am LOVING my results.. it is now day 15.. I am still wearing make up to cover some redness but I am very fair skinned so it shows.. just looks like a minor sunburn now, best wishes!
Great results! Thanks for sharing with us!
my pleasure!
