Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I had the YAG laser on my face to get rid of a few broken capillaries. Everywhere the laser was used has small indentations/scars, and there are two large scars on the side of my cheek right under my eye that look like someone took a knife and slashed me. I had completely smooth skin before this.
I knew something was wrong as soon as the dermatologist did the procedure, because he said he was going to turn the setting up, and it burned very badly. My face was oozing afterwards, and the scabs that formed didn't go away for weeks.
When I went back to the dermatologist to talk to him about this, he said to wait and see what happened. He claimed they would go away. It has been over a year, and they of course have not gone away. He then suggested that it was a result of sun exposure afterwards and said he could barely even see them. Come on! He offered to do subcision on the two biggest scars. That had absolutely zero effect. Then he suggested filler. Ummmm...so now I will have to get expensive fillers for the rest of my life on a scar that he created. Had I known this was a possibility, I would have never done this. I had been going to him for years and trusted his judgment.
This laser can easily scar your face. Every time I look in the mirror I feel sick. It literally cauterized my skin and scarred it. Please do not use this laser. You will regret it.
