So my skin looked really amazing the first week or so after the healing. I was ready to jump in and do it again for even better results. My doctor told me i should wait 2 months until I do it again, so I agreed. Since then my face has had a few breakouts and I can still see the majority of the scars. They are more subtle but still there. I can also see small track marks from the laser in a magnifying mirror. But from far away they are not noticeable. I will do this treatment again in 2 months and hope for more results.

My face is feeling smooth and I am back to my normal skin care routine, I still have some marks but they are barely visible with makeup. I will go back and have one more treatment over my whole face.

Your skin is looking amazing! Congrats! I guess your co2 was not resurfacing/fully ablative but just fractionated as you can normally function on a 6th day?

Yes it was fully ablative, my skin healed a lot faster then I was told it would, she did it on a low setting to see how my skin would react. I go for a second treatment in 3 and a half weeks and it will be done on the entire face.

Your skin looks great! Could you please post the name of your doctor, as I live near Ottawa and am considering both procedures myself.

My skin is feeling a tad itchy, VERY hard not to itch. I have notice some tiny white heads between my nose. The camera doesn't catch them very well but they are there. I can also really see the "marks" from the laser.

Your face looks good to me, it does not seem very red either, do you know the exact name of the laser? Was it fractional or resurfacing co2? My doctor uses coherent co2 in Florida & charges $4000!

The pictures do no justice in showing the redness. I had smartxride dot laser it costed 850 plus tax was 960. I also had subsicion which costed 200.
