Swelling and Redness Post EXCEL V
$700
Hi,
I had an excel V done two days ago to treat rosacea with a board certified dermatologist who specializes in laser. With that said, I believe I have been burned as I’m very red (getting redder) and extremely swollen (like a chipmunk). The photos don’t show the swelling, it’s significant. Like both my checks, my forehand, around my eyes and my jowls are triple in size. Is this a burn? Should I be concerned right now? When I called the doctor they said it was fine but I don’t know what to think right now. This seems extreme for excel v. I’m icing and using Benedryl but I am unsure if I should take other steps. So worried my skin won’t recover.

I had the same reaction, it took about 7 days for it to clear. I was shocked because no one prepared me for it.
My advice to you is that it WILL go away, just be patient. And I’m sorry you had such a strong reaction.
