First off I was very nervous to have this procedure done as I had read some horror stories both on here and other websites, but opted to give it a shot.
I went in today an hour before to get numbed up. The procedure itself didn't really hurt per say but it stung and did burn a little bit, I think i jumped a few times when she was doing my lids as it is just a sting in a sensitive area that no matter how much I braced and prepared for it, it just was a little shocker. After the treatment it felt like a mild sunburn and there were alot of little dots present (see pic). I will post more over the next few days as I heal....

Day 2

I woke up this morning with no pain at all but very swollen. As the day went on the swelling went down but the darkness of the scabs started to show up. The Aquaphor help d with the dryness but it makes my face itchy. I slathered on my gunk and sunscreen today along with my hat and sunglasses and went out for awhile to run errands. Overall things look to be healing well....

Thanks so much for taking the time to share. I can imagine how painful the lids must have been! How long do you leave the numbing on before your treatment?

Nice outcome. How many treatments do you have to do? Is 500.00 the entire total? I have thought about doing this cause my dermatologist says it will help stave off a blepharaplasty. I'm in my 40s and have just a few wrinkles. Btw your skin is beautiful. What is your secret

Just one treatment for the eye area, I may decide to get the rest of my face if I like the results. I have mild wrinkles and large pores which is why I decided to give it a try. Thanks for the compliment I try to make sure I am dedicated to washing every night before bed, I use a serum and I moisturize and sun block everyday. I have more pictures that I can post later my phone wouldn't let me upload them. I will say the healing process is taking longer than I expected. It is day 4 and I still have a lot of scabs and is not yet smooth to where I can put mineral makeup over it yet. I am 38 so I am trying to start early:)
