Laser Can Ruin Your Face. Johnston, RI

I did post this already in a comment section. I had CO2 laser done approximately 15 years ago ( I was 47). I went to a supposed "top Doc" in Rhode Island only to correct some loose skin at that time. She suggested the CO2 laser so I trusted her knowledge and expertise. I healed okay, but as time went on I had and still have hyperpigmentation. The skin around my mouth does not match the rest of my face and it is just awful. I'm now 62 and I do not look my age until you either see me up close or in the light; especially sunlight. It's like my skin was burnt off; there are holes and wrinkles. This caused enlarged pores in some areas. I personally would not have any laser done to my face ever again. If you are young, it might not look like an awful procedure but I believe as you get older you will have a problem. Mine got worse as I got older. Also, my skin constantly feels dehydrated around my lips. The area above my eyelids still looks strange and itches. I have read a lot of posts on this already. I just bought a Derma Roller and used it for the first time last night. I am going to be patient here and see if this corrects or lessens my horror. I will follow up with my results to see if this works. Be careful what a doctor tells you. Sorry, most everything is about money and they are not always looking out for your best interest. I really wonder if they would have this done to their face. I still believe there are some great doctors out there and then there are the rest that do not fall in that category. I feel for all of you who have gone through this because it's very depressing to see your face ruined.
