Not Nearly As Painful As It May Look!

WORTH IT
Wonderful experience at Midwest Anti-Aging in the KC-metro area. I’ve had cystic acne for most my adult life and ready for the scarring to be gone!
I was numbed with what my provider called the BLT and I felt very little during the procedure. My forehead was a bit tender but the rest was no worse than an an at-home face scrub. I was red for the rest of the day and experienced slight burning sensation feeling similar to a bad sunburn. Woke up on day 2 to zero discomfort and some peeling is beginning to happen. Will continue to post as the week progresses!

No pain or burning! Definitely flaky yet very smooth skin underneath.still pink and my chest and neck are very discolored still. I used micellar water to remove any skin on a cotton round 3X today. Once in morning, midday and this evening. Happy with results so far!

Did you see improvement to your acne scars? I have bad cystic scars and am thinking of booking a skinpen appointment.
