Blue Med Spa has not sent me the other photos I requested so I will not be returning to them for services, I am not so sure about how "worth it " it was now, I mean I see results but for $1200 I expected the results to be much more, I'll let you be the judge...
Perhaps I would consider doing more but at lower cost and different facility.

I would recommend that you look into websites such as Groupon, Lifebooker Loot, and Amazon Local for med spas that do laser facials. I use these sites in my area (NYC) for everything. I won't pay full price for a facial. I have large pores too. I am doing fraxel treatments now (I just had my second treatment yesterday). My skin is brighter but pores are the same size. I bought 2 treatments using Groupon and the spa gave me the same price for the next 2 treatments. I plan to do laser genesis next. I don't like the fraxel treatments - my face is sunburned and swollen today.

Hi I had fraxel laser treatment done to my face and after I got done with yhe treatment, I w anted to smash an ice cream all over my face. My face swelled up and I shed alot of skin. I only did 1 treatment but I had visible texture and pore improvement. Some small acne scars improved but I had a medium size scar on my forehead above my eyebrow and it didnt improve and looks more noticeable. Did this happen to you? Do you feel that the genesis is better for old scars or fraxel better treatment for old scars? TIA

I started drinking a glass of carrot juice everyday, and my skin loves it. My pores have reduced in size, and I definitely notice a difference when I stop drinking carrot juice for a week.

That's a great tip Kizzle, nothing like nourshing the skin from the inside out. I am a huge fan of that. Thank you for sharing.

I did dot laser. Now that the purging is wrapping up I am starting to see improvements in texture daily. My skin is very similar to yours.

Hi. Are you pleased with your results? Do you think that the treatments helped your acne scars and did you start to produce more collagen?

Yes, it definitely helped my scars, and the overall texture of my skin. It takes patience and use a GOOD camera to see your before and after results, I relied on the Spa and should not have done that.

Hi there. I have the same skin tone and skin texture as you (I am of Latino heritage) and I just made my appointment this Monday! I have mild acne scarring and am scared to try derma-rolling because I don't want little holes poked into my scars which are already "holes." I use professional spa skincare and while it has made my skin more luminous, the scars are still there. How has your skin reacted since your last treatment?

I would recommend this laser treatment to anyone who wants to see improvement in skin texture, but just look for good price or specials because its pricey and be patient, it takes time to see results after done with all treatments, i would say minimum of 6 treatments

4th and last treatment

IneedanupgradeJune 8, 2014
So Last Wed I had got my last treatment and all went as usual, nice, warm comforting with only one time that I actually had to raise my hand due to laser getting to hot, and as usual... Once she moved it the heat disappeared.

The tech told me to give it two weeks before we could see the full affects, and to wait it out to see if I still want to do more treatments or do any injectables.

I also just got the before pictures via email but none of the pictures from our last session, I requested them, so once they send I wil post!
