I just had the treatment yesterday but really liked looking at others results before having the treatment myself, which is why I'm going to update my experience so others are able to do the same. The treatment itself was great with the injectable anesthesia. Otherwise it would have been too intense. Having other procedures in the past (i.e." Thermal & Ulthera with minimal improvement) Im looking forward to seeing how this one works.
I did not get any brushing at all, at first it looked like i was going to but it ended up just redness. I have a lot of swelling the next day and just a lot of smaller and larger red dots everywhere. I am doing the cold compress and just using Aquifor for the first 24 hours. I will continue to do cold compresses today but am allowed to start using sunblock later today and discontinuing the Aquafor (i still may use a little as i use this a lot when my skin feels dry and tight).
By the way, i am 49 years old and i take very good care of my skin for the most part. Will keep updated and post before and afters once i have some to show.

Today my swelling is down about 90%. I really got no bruising except for under eyes were s dark red. Definitely better than expected. I've been icing 3 days and will cut that off today. Been back to normal things with some makeup but the redness is still pretty obvious. Will post pics soon.

So far great. It's exactly a week today. I can cover not with makeup but I got a little shiner under my right eye. It's slowly getting there but a little harder to cover
I took arnica to reduce bruising and barely got any, more redness
Also do cold compresses and sleep elevated, two of the most important things for swelling. Good luck!
