I am so happy with all that Dr Chesnut has done for me including the CO2, Voluma and Lip aug.  Each day I look at myself and put on my makeup and feel pretty. It has all been worth it including the downtime and expense and I would do it over again in a heartbeat!!  You are the best Dr Chesnut and thanks again.

Thank you so very much for all the insight to this procedure. Am considering - what type of Co2 laser what this? Was this a smart laser? Thanks so much.f. Trying to decide how much time I will need to take off of work. I do work with the public and need to look "presentable" on the day I go back!!!

I'd be really interested in the type of CO2 laser as well if you have time - you look fabulous!

I love your story. Your results are phenomenal and your daughters are Gorgeous. Unfortunately I had Co2 full ablation and have terrible results. I have a question. My Co2 laser required anesthesia, you were awake for this? This was not Fraxel laser? I can't imagine the pain felt with the Co2. :-(

Thk u for all the updates. I am 57 yrs old, and getting this done on the same day following my breast revision surgery. You are my inspiration to do this instead of an eyelid lift. I feel the eye lift would be beneficial, but would not address the textural issues I have with my skin. Thank you for taking all the time to record your journey to benefit others. You're results are amazing. Thank you for not being selfish and helping other women with our aging process. Stand proud you deserve it!!!

Take a look at the neck and done on the chest. You can see where it is getting much clearer and I am very happy with the results.

Debra, thanks for sharing your journey. You look so happy and your face is amazing. Put on that sunscreen all the time, you need to protect this hard earned result. I did laser CO 2 one year ago and it was so worth it.

Debra - I'm guessing this wasn't a fractional CO2 laser? I've been told that that would take 4-5 sessions rather than one. (I'm NOT talking about Fraxel.)

I was with my girls this weekend. Both in their early 30's. When I saw this picture I was really excited about how well my skin looked and was happy to see the comparison to my daughters.

How happy are you with your hands?
User Avatar

I am glad I did the hands and have had a big improvement. But it seems like chest and hands need alot longer to show great results. That being said the big brown spots are really faint now and I am happy about that. I notice that the chest is really starting to show great results and my skin is really soft now. I would do the hands again and if they continue to improve like the chest I will be SUPER happy

You are looking fabulous! You look as young as your daughter! Good luck. I had CO2 done 15 years ago on my entire face it lasted for a bit and took years off of my face. It was worth it! xochitl

Tina bird,
How long is "a bit"? I'm scheduled to have full face co2 done in a couple weeks and I have been wondering just how long it does last. Doesn't seem worth it if it's only good for 6 months to a year.
