My Doctor Should Have Been Totally Honest with Me!! - Hawaii
It has been a exactly three weeks since my Pearl...
It has been a exactly three weeks since my Pearl Laser treatment, and I look horrible! My face is still red and blotchy and I get stares from people every where I go! A friend of mine asked me if I was suffering from some kind of skin allergy. I am so frustrated and disappointed! I did it to get rid of the wrinkles under my eyes and to minimize my pores but so far my wrinkles are still there (just less deep) and my pores are the same size. And now I look worst than before the procedure because of all these red blotches all over my face. What's worst is that I'm getting married in 7 days! My doctor assured me that I would be fully healed by my wedding date--in fact his exact words were, "You'll be fine--if anything, you'll just have a slight pinkness to your face". Now I can't help but wonder if he just wanted my money!
I went to the store and purchased a product from Clinique that is supposed to help minimize "redness" on my face. The sales person put a little on me and it did help somewhat, but I still look awful. It brings me to tears every time I think about looking this way at my wedding!

It has now been exactly 6 weeks since the Pearl...
He has been trying to treat me with some kind of LED light, claiming that it should help too. I have had two treatments so far and I still look the same. He also gave me certain kinds of facial creams, that while seem to be great moisturizers, does little for the stains on my face! ARGH!!!!

Hi Angry,
Welcome to the community and thanks for the review. I'm so sorry to hear what you have gone through, especially so close to your wedding day. Have you been back to your doctor? Please keep us updated.
Thanks,

He has given me two LED light treatments so far, which has done nothing to lighten the patches of red and brown on face. He's also given me CliniqueMedical products, which so far has done nothing either.
The odd thing is that he said to me, "I used a low setting on you, so I don't know why your face looks like this", which gave me the impression that he was lying and that he most likely is covering up for the fact that he used a high setting on me.
