WORTH IT$2,800
I had this done again this past Janurary. I pealed quicker but the down time was just about the same. About 5 days before you look OK. You do look fabulious for about 3 months and the effect slowly diminishes. If I had the time and money I would have this done every 6 or 7 months. Its just really disruptive if you work. I considered just having my mid face done this way ( Its considerablly less money that the whole face and neck) but you have the same down tie. If I could find the right holidays that I could do it over I might actually start to do this.

A month out and things are starting to really settle. my skin is definately tighter and wrinkles reduced. The results are very subtile but quite tangable. You look better but its hard to put your finger on exactly what it is. But it shows in a photograph so its not in your head ! That said it's not a face lift. If your expectations are too great or your skin badly wrinkled you may very well be disapointed.
I had some lingering redness ( that show as linear lines) on my cheeks, where the lazer tracked that I thought these were going to be a problem as they were not going away. I tried the bleaching cream perscribed by the doc but that actually seemed to make it worse. I did some reasearch and found that borage oil is really good for skin healing and inflamation. I started putting the pure oil on the problem areas and they are resolving very quickly. Its rather amazing. I'm also taking the pills twice a day becouse its so good for you. (really you should read up on it!).
I'm still very glad I did this proceedure and am going to do a follow up treatment in about 7 months for maximum collegen building. Then I will do again as needed say every year or two. I will repeat that it is smart to do this BEFORE you have major signs of ageing as your results will be better. This is a good treatment to keep you 'holding' at middle age for a longer period than normal.

So glad to hear you are seeing good results! I think your point about going in with realistic expectations is a very valid one. Its true that we can't expect miracles...even if we do want them! ;)

Please keep updating on the changes you are seeing in your skin!
