My physician is so incredibly competent, this is not jab at him. This is just a treatment that didn't take for me. I think some people will have better results but i wanted to post my own experience so others can weigh make a better informed decision.

1. PAINFUL. maybe my skin is thin? but it was excruciating. i was exhausted afterwards and i'm not a big complainer.

2. my face was numb and partially paralyzed (you could only tell when i smiled) for three week post.

3. i see no difference - perhaps i'm a bit jowlier even or maybe that's just natural aging since procedure.

HOWEVER,

1. my skin itself looks brighter - it could be products i'm using (vitamin c).

2. a stubborn random lip wrinkle disappeared after the procedure so on some level it must be working - just not on other parts.

3. my physician is INCREDIBLY NICE and TRUSTWORTHY and i would go back to him if i consider other options. he spent a lot of time working on me and his staff is very kind.
