Plasma Eyes healing process

For some reason the pictures didn't upload the first time - here are some pictures of what the healing process looked like. Basically it got worse before it got better.
I felt that it healed quicker than a CO2 laser by perhaps a day.

Plasma Eyes

Once a year I get the CO2 laser done on my eye area to keep them looking fresh all year round. This time I wanted to try out the Plasma pen as they don’t use those annoying retina shields (to protect your eyes) that CO2 does.
My usual doctor doesn’t do this procedure so I got a referral to Dr Calvin Chan from Chan Aesthetic & Laser Clinic.
Dr Chan patiently explained everything and I returned a week later to get the procedure done, while a friend got another procedure done. The procedure protocol was rather standard; cleaning, photographing, numbing cream…
The zapping took about 10-15 minutes with most of the time 20 mins or so with the numbing cream.
I was obviously given aftercare instructions both by the Doctor and the nurse.
I felt that the result was pretty much the same with the recovery time, perhaps only a day less then CO2.
I have put the recovery pictures day by day but as the eye are is rather difficult to photograph you can’t really see the full after effect. My recovery took 6 days, on the 7th there was really nothing to see although my eyelids had a slight pink tone to them as if I had makeup on them, which I loved, which has completely disappeared. On the first day you could not see much as it was just a light pink and then it started to look worse as the days went by, before shedding to beautiful fresh new eyes!
Suffice to say that I was happy with how fresh my eyes looked afterwards. If you are scared about having lasers so close to your eyes or dislike the retina/eye shields then this is a good option for you.
