Got to wear makeup today!!
I had to take a group pic today, and decided I would put makeup on, though Dr. Sweis wanted me to wait until two weeks post laser. I’m sooooo impressed with my smooth skin and wrinkle-less face.

Wow, looks great with or without makeup. Also, taking care of your body makes you look young head to toe.
Awww. Thx. This pic was taken yesterday at the gym. My virgin application of makeup after the laser. My gym friends were in awe with my new complexion.
You look amazing. How does the CO2 laser compare to a 30% TCA peel?
CO2 is more invasive. It removes more sun damage, pigment changes and fine lines. It also tightens the skin and softens deep wrinkles. The downtime is usually much longer than a peel. Laser peels are generally more expensive too. It's not a question of which is better... it's more of what your needs are.
When were you comfortable going out in public?
Hi Mara.. I didn't go out until ten days post laser. It was just an eye sore with all of the Alba petroleum on my face. It would drip down onto my clothes... just not very pretty. Lol.
Thank you. You look great!
If you're vacillating on getting lasers... Go FOR IT!!
Randi, you look fabulous! That laser has given you brand new skin! You Dr Sweis is an artist with the laser! Do you feel it tightened your skin too? I have rosacea and wonder if I'm a good candidate for this procedure. Plus I'd have to figure out how to hide from the world for a good week! I'm so thrilled for you! Thanks so much for generously sharing your journey with all of us! You have such beautiful skin!!!
Hi Ms. Grosse Pointe!!
Thx for stopping by to leave such kind words. Yes, the laser was just what my skin needed. It helped with fine lines, sun spots, acne scars, AND definitely tightened my skin!!
I'm not sure if you're a candidate for this procedure... I'd assume your p. s. would be your best resource for this information.
I would say that you need at least ten days of hibernation with this procedure.. IMHO!!

Beautiful! Daily metamorphosis-aging backwards, like Benjamin Button! ;)
Brad Pitt was hysterical in this movie. A very simple premise... he's born old and died young. A little superficial, but fun!!
Holy Moly!! Amazing results! I hate the downtime from procedures like this but the end results are soooo worth it. Beautiful lady!!
No pain.. no gain!! It's just one component of the surgery. Just keep focusing on the prize!
Yes, my mom used to say, You must suffer to be beautiful!!
Ha... my mom always said that true beauty is how you are as a human being.
Randi, you are a warrior for sure! Congrats my beautiful friend! HUGS
Hi. The laser was definitely intense, but, OHHHH so worth it. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to reduce fine lines, redness or discoloration. It does cause some discomfort, but it's tolerable during the procedure.
Love the collage! I can see the progression every day. Very helpful. Thank you.
It was fun seeing the transformation in these photos
