I have done everything from smoothbeam, chemical peels, microderms. After doing 5 treatments of smoothbeam I was told I wouldnt have the scars anymore. Well that was a lie. 6 months before my wedding I was getting a chemical peel and my esthetician told me about CO2 laser. Today is 4/13/2015 and my skin is the worst it's ever been. It's all discolored everywhere. It looks like I have horrible skin damage. My scaring is still there and now I still have the scars and discoloration all over my face. I can't go in the sun anymore on my face ( I don't sun bath) but like to sit outside. I have to cover my face because it doesn't tan correctly anymore. Again it's all blotchie and discolored. I regret doing the procedure. I'm writing this because I hope to help someone else. It's not worth the permanent damage.

I am so sorry to hear! This is one of my few options...do you think it at least helps with minor indentations or just a small area? Could it have been that they over treated your skin or were beyond reasonable parameters? Im confused by such polar opposite reviews. This shouldnt be happening to people. I've heard so much about these lasers damaging skin pores too, orange peel texture, etc but bleeding from your pores too? I am so sorry! They should have been more clear
