For whatever reason these didn’t post with my Day 4 update so I’m reposting. These are 3 days after PDT. I’m adding a front view as well. I tried to keep all the pics in the same lighting. I will post again in ages days. Hopefully there will be improvement in the AKs by then. *fingers crossed*

Thanks for your review. I have just had my PDT done and like you have not had a huge reaction. Did your PDT work and did it successfully treat your AKs? I’m worried that my minimal reaction might indicate it hasn’t worked.

Day 4

I’m not seeing much change in any of the AKs. No crusting or peeling, just a little redness. I did; however, have improvement in a random breakout around my mouth/chin that I had right before the procedure.

Day 3 (48 hours after procedure)

meesh13
This procedure was so hyped up that I was expecting to be mangled for like a week. I rescheduled it several times bc of work travel that came up. Truthfully, 24 hours is really the downtime. Today I had minimal redness/dryness, mostly in the spots that had sun damage. Nothing I cldnt cover with makeup. I went to the gym in the morning then went to brunch with zinc on for sunscreen and sat outside in direct sunlight and I was fine.
