How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

i can see the light and the end of the tunnel..
Since my last update, I let my derm convince me to go pack to light picosure treatment, once a month. I had 2 sessions and they have made a huge impack on the pigmentation which is almost gone. Right now I am struggling with the sun damaging my skin which is very sensitive now and still healing.
The scars are improving, I still feel like i have razor cuts all over, but I'm being patient now that I can see some improvement!
I'm getting married in 5 months... there is still time to fix this!! Fingers crossed!

Found pre-infini pictures
Hi,
After being asked about pre-treatment pictures, I found those.
Hard to tell where the scars were (which is why I'm even more upset I let myself be convinced to do this). Look at the dark rounds.
Now keep in mind, this was "post-picosure" which is a laser treatment but more gentle. This treatment gave me a temporary skin tightening effect which made the scars almost disappear put only for a few days (till the tightening resumed). Looking back I should not have listened to the derm. stick to picosure for a couple more sessions...
Also, got some messages about seeing my doctor. I am seeing my doctor every 2 weeks. She is at a loss as far as why I am reacting the way I am and suggesting an other pico session to speed up recovery. Treating laser damage with an other laser AGAIN scares me but this seems to be the consensus among professionals! Not decided on this yet.
I hope this feed allows other people thinking about doing this treatment to reconsider, especially if you know your skin does not heal well. It's not worth it.
My personal opinion is that this treatment is maybe good for those with no skin issues that are looking for tightening.
I was trying to completely get rid of a couple of scars that were fairly discreet and look at where I am now..
