I am sooooo going to do this! I don't have msny wrinkles, however, I do have the beginning stages of some sogginess. Your results and those of others I have seen on this forum convinced me that this is a great alternative to invasive surgery. Thank you!

If the dates on her pictures are accurate... then Houston we have a problem. The first minor discrepancy is the length of time between her first and second picture. The first picture is dated 2005/4/26 and the second picture which she says is day 4 is dated 2005/5/02 which would be day 6. But the real deal breaker? According to the mixto site, http://mixtoskinresurfacing.blogspot.com/ "The MiXto SX was the first Micro Fractional CO2 Laser introduced in 2007" which was two years after the date of her pictures. Her after procedure picture looks like IPL to me... Not enough swelling or redness for a Mixto procedure.... I could be wrong.. or perhaps she made an honest mistake as to what device she was treated with... or maybe they told her she was treated with a laser to justify the $3720 price? The procedure was impressively successful whatever it was... And i would gladly pay the same money for an equal result.

Hi there! I just saw this post! The date on my first photo is NOT correct...my Mixto was done in 2009. The problem was with my lack of concern setting up the date function on my camera. Sorry! I didn't have the photofacial procedure; I did have the Mixto CO2 laser procedure at a laser vision center in El Cerrito, CA. The price included 3 areas - face, neck and hands. My hands are looking "somewhat senior" again, but my face and neck are still showing the benefits of my treatment 5 years and 5 months later. If my "date discrepancies" have dissuaded you from the procedure I have done you a disservice! I apologize.

This photo was taken in the summer of 2012. It wasn't posted until 2013. I am trying to be accurate here!

This is me at 61...4 years after my laser treatment. Obviously it was worth it for me.

September 30, 2010 I'm still thrilled with my Mixto results. With or without makeup I look young, have a natural glow, and feel very self-confident. Of course, I'm one of those nuts who exercises, eats her veggies and practices positive thinking. I think it's all tied together!

Wow! Pretty amazing. I wouldn't peg you for 59. If anything I would have thought 40!

Thank you. I'm 61 now and my skin still looks terrific (for a woman 61!!). My new doctor said to me during our initial meeting, "Have you had any surgeries? You don't have very many wrinkles!" It's the laser, AND sunscreen!!
