Day 6-10 - No more stinging / shooting pains, but definitely a constant sunburn like aching pain. They will not convince me to do this a 2nd time without a neurotin script in hand, LOL!
It's not that it's completely unbearable, I think the worst part is just wondering when it will start to ease. Most everyone seems to say at the 2 week mark.
It's just rather distracting if you have important things to do... I have a busy, mentally intensive job and it's rather like trying to work with a bad sunburn or a migraine that no pills will ease.

FYI: My procedure was with the large applicator to the lower abdomen. I will update with pictures when I reach the "after" phase.

Day 3-5 after procedure has been uncomfortable! Pins and needles / stinging shooting pains, as others have described. I think that if I were to do it again, I would schedule the procedure for a Tues. or Wed. so that the worst of this would happen over the following weekend.

Hey I'm so glad to see you have good experience. I'm in process of research and reading reviews. Your is very resent and I would like to know how long that redness on your skin stay. Also I live 60 miles a way can I make the drive or need someone to take me back home. I'm planning not to tell anyone about it and trying to see is that can be a secret or I have to tell my husband. Thank you so much.

I know that it's different for everyone depending on the placement of the applicator, but for myself the redness was gone within an hour and you couldn't even tell I had anything done. You will definitely be able to drive yourself. The hardest part seems to be the first week after - I am very much wishing I bothered my doctor for a neurotin script. The other night I had a dream I was in a room full of swarming wasps, LOL. It's bearable, just uncomfortable.

Hello Januaryjurl, just checking to see how are you? Several days had pass, do you still experience pain? Is your skin damage? Do you see any discoloration?
Thanks for your time.
Thanks for your time.
Yes I am still in pain... It is like having a medium level sunburn. I hope it passes soon!
The skin is not damaged and there is no discoloration... aside from some light redness on the procedure, there has been no changes to the skin itself.
You may have to tell your husband as it'll be hard not to notice if you're in a week of pain unless you can convince him you have a week of really bad cramps or something. :-)
All the other reviews suggest that most the aftereffects pass after about 2 weeks... 4 more days til the 2 week mark and each day seems to feel a little bit better.
