WORTH IT
Great appointment today. Healing. After all of this - going to have a good result. OMG - a journey. Thank you Turkle and Associates for seeing it through.
The pics side by side today show I’ve responded to the compounded cream. I’ve been taking oral glutathione too - an antioxidant that lightens the skin. I’m dry from the retinoids acid, but that will get better. I guess my last update was the dark before the light.

Also disappointing, I tried to post on this site to ask a question of the other docs who sometimes respond. The site refused to let me post because Turkle consults/participates on this site.
I don’t see why that should mean other colleagues can’t comment.

Ugh

So I finally broke down and cried tonight. I am panicked, frustrated, confused, worried about my face.
It is healing, but it looks like crap. I have tons of hyperpigmentation. My pore size larger. My skin gets itchy and crepe like. I have lines and texture issues.
I went in looking pretty good. Now I’m facing months of healing.
Turkle’s office won’t admit any wrong doing. They remind me that I signed a release form. My main source of frustration is that my complications are so far from normal. I’m stuck with this long healing period. If I wasn’t burned, I shouldn’t need six weeks on top of the three I’ve had to heal.
An allergic reaction to some cream would have resolved on 48 hours. Terrible.

But it’s because I went to a different spa and got a peel and an IPL facial to reduce redness. I also paid to have Turkle’s office perform a PRP microneedling.
I am going back to them one last time for a PICO to reduce pigmentation.
I believe way too much heat was used for my skin during the procedure and I have been in damage control mode since.
There has been definite collagen lift on my neck, brow and lip area. But for all I’ve endured, not worth it.
