Laser spider vein removal

Laser spider vein removal

I had spider veins on my nose and chin that always flared up at work so I decided to have them treated at Luxe Laser in Maumee Ohio. This was supposed to be a simple procedure with zero down time so I really didn’t put the thought or research into it that I should have. I ended up with serious burns that left permanent scars on my face. Dr Banker said he had no idea how the burns occurred but offered to do additional services at no charge to “make things right.” No thanks. Don’t go here.

Thank you for your honesty. I had a procedure done in another stste and my legs are much worse now than before. The Dr. Hit a nerve and I came off the table. It felt like searing hot blade went into my keg. Never again!

I had the same thing about 8 years ago. They made holes on both sides of my nose. I've been everywhere to try and fix it there is no cure or solution.

I had exactly the same outcome, and a lot of crying since then. It’s disappointing that there are no stricter rulers as for who is allowed to use lasers and that the patient has to sign all kinds of waivers and can’t really do anything if there is damage. Trying to accept this and also looking into microneedling treatment as an option to improve the appearance of scars.

I also had a similar outcome. I've been doing a series of 35% TCA cross home peels with a ton of success! The large linear indent on the size of my nose is almost invisible!

I was burned as well - left with 5 indented scars on my nose and cheeks. Any advice for fixing this issue?
