(Unfinished) Removing Dark Pigmented Birthmark on Leg (African American) at Radiance Cosmetic Center - Riverside, CA
UPDATED FROM babeenthusiast
I'M STILL HERE!
$800
Over a year since my update and i've had one more treatment done on my leg earlier this year. The summer has been hot and sunny here in CA. I'm 19 now. My square-shaped birthmark is spotty with pigments of my normal and darkened skin.
Update on my upper right leg where test spot was conducted: Birthmark is basically nonexistent! There are about 3 spots where my skin is darkened but I forget I ever had a mark there.
I plan to go back to Radiance after summer's end. Dr Meyering informed me early spring she may retire and sell her business... so I'm crossing my fingers that she'll still be there. She also informed me that the numbing injection won't be free of charge anymore Which sucks! My next visit will be 90-100 dollars. I just purchased my first car, too... and with tuition and a mediocre pay from work, it's not the best thing I'd like to hear! haha

Keeping it brief: I just had another appointment a few hours ago, happy and satisfied with Dr. Meyering. I honestly feel more comfortable there. The second treatment took so long to finally receive since the dr was ill for a few months. She also gave me a free face treatment for my business! Ive been suffering with some bad acne lately. Overall, i paid 75$ (shes going to start charging my for the numbing injection she injects into my skin before using the laser though...) and will definitely refer someone. Hoping to see more progress with my leg. Its lightened up in a few spots in the middle of the mark. Post pics in a few weeks.

I forgot to include the fact that I've been religiously using a healing creme called Cu3 Intensive Tissue Repair Creme on the treated spot from April. I use it often on the test spot from Sept. too.
