Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I've had many precancerous lesions either cut or frozen off with liquid nitrogen over the years (skin cancer runs in my family). My dermatologist convinced me to do the levulan stick with Blu light treatment as a more comprehensive way to treat these precancerous lesions. The 16 min under the light was unpleasant, but tolerable. However the following week was very, very unpleasant . I had partial thickness (2nd degree) burns to my entire face including blistering, scanning, cracking in bleeding. I was in constant pain which prevented me from sleeping. 2nd week after treatment was slightly better, but still fairly unpleasant. My reaction to the photo therapy was so bad that I would never consider having this treatment again for any reason. I don't know how effective this therapy is in actually treating skin cancer or AK's but it was absolutely not worth it.
Provider Review
To this point, I have been very happy with my practitioner. I have just found this one treatment/therapy to be intolerable.
