Would not recommend - 11 weeks later and I'm still bruised

ORIGINAL POST

11 Weeks Later & I’m Still Bruised

$2,800
I’m a skin type 3 & this procedure gave me terrible bruising which still has not cleared and now looks like hyperpigmentation. My option now is to do supposed a laser treatment to clear it up. I would not recommend this treatment at all and I work in medical aesthetics.

Update: turns out I have hemosiderin staining. I'm currently doing laser treatments to help lighten the pigmentation. It's been 2 weeks since my laser treatment and I don't see a difference yet.
I am experiencing the same staining. I've been reading that Q-switched lasers may help because of their potential to penetrate deeper than say IPL. Do you know what lasers you are using and are you having any luck?
It should have never been approved. I had horrific loss of volume/fat that created dents, dimples and more cellulite, on top of the bruising. I submitted a complaint with the FDA and FTC. If they get enough complaints, they will launch an investigation.
I think I will do the same, this is causing me a lot of stress and money. :(
Agree 100%. My Doctors office has already stopped offering it due to extreme hyperpigmentation. I have bruising still from last August treatments and i am on 3 rounds of laser and carboxy therapy to combat the staining. This was the worst decision I ever made and its left me worse off then before treatment. The staining looks way worse than the cellulite. I dont know how they ever got this approved for use.... I can not stress enough to stay away from this treatment
Mine is horrible still bruised and hard spots and bumps everywhere
I have extreme loss of volume/fat as well so instead of a few dimples I have grayish purple dents. Luckily my injector agrees and she is trying to make up for it by trying Sculptra (on her dime). I am so thankful, but it’s not helping either. We are going to try another vial after 2 months and see what happens. Would not recommend QWO to anyone.
