Wow!! Unless it had something to do with the close-ups or lighting it really made a huge difference. So clear now. When I looked at your before pics the spots looked like some zodiac sign in the sky (those 3 in a row!). Could use some help with mine-BUT- unfortunately need dental implants which seems to be the most expensive procedure around. Well...you never know. Looks good!

Great Results! I had age spots removed from my face with the Pico laser but after a month they started to come back. I have had it treated with the Pico laser over 11times over the past year. They are a lot lighter, but not gone. I hope they stay off for you.

Sunscreen and no exposure really helps. I had to do three months back-to-back in the beginning. Age spots are often hormonal as well, so...

Thanks for the chronology of your prodecure! You have given me the courage to explore this for myself.

That was super helpful! I had one removed with laser and it came right back. I went back in and she suggested that the damage was too deep and it needed to be cut out to get to the “base of it” well I wound up with a big pock mark in my face. Would have rather had the sun spot :( I have another one now and your post makes me want to go try laser again. Maybe they used the wrong laser on me or wrong setting? Love your results. Please update us if the spots return

Final Results

ChinBurger
Skipped a couple days because nothing new was happening :) So it was about 6 days until the "scabs" started falling off, and by Day 7 it was pretty much all done. Two very tiny ones remain, but the big issue of walking around looking like you have sores all over your face ended by end of Day 5.

They told me in the office it would be 6 to 10 days depending on how fast your skin heals so if you're considering this one, expect to draw some "looks" from people for 5 days, then you should be good.

Here are pictures of day 6. You can see the two scabby dots remaining. Oddly there are a ton more I could have had addressed (and should have) but didn't. Now i see them a lot more noticeably.

Results? 100% works amazingly well. The original sun spots are gone. What seems to be left is some redness in those areas, which I assume will fade with time. But good luck figuring out where they were originally. They're gone :)

Pico actually takes two weeks or so to start seeing optimum results according to my doctor. The laser breaks the cells down into small enough particles that your body can reabsorb the dark areas. In essence it blasts them into tiny bits and then your body takes over. I do my décolleté area too.

Day 3 - Not much to report.

Still recommend not touching it. At all. If you know anything about how skin heals, you know that it needs to do so on its own schedule, or you risk leaving a mark forever. So I shower and don't even make contact with it. When I dry myself, I "pat" the towel at most. There's still some tenderness if I squint a lot, or accidentally brush against it, but if that isn't happening there is 100% zero sensation at all. Don't feel a thing. Still keeping it completely wet with the gel stuff.
