You look amazing . Thanks for the update and picture !
Thank you! I'm pleased with the result. I'd love a facelift, but not in the budget.
I assume you are wearing makeup in this photo. Is your skin still red/pink?
Yes, wearing light coverage makeup. Redness and pinkness was completely gine intwo weeks but I did have 2-3 rough patches, sandpapery spots on my face and neck. All is smooth and soft now.
You look great! I am reading some horror stories on here about residual redness for six months or more. Two weeks sounds tolerable.
The first time I had it done, it lasted about 3 weeks. I think the experience of the provider, how they set the machine, etc makes a difference in the result. My skin is very fair and healed fairly quickly. I returned to work after 8 days. I also feel adhering to proper aftercare is important ( recommend vinegar soaks, post procedure products, etc)
Oh yes, you look wonderful!
Thank you so much!
Do you see any improvement on your neck wrinkles?
Some improvement but not dramatic.
Very Nice, thanks for the pics!
Thank you. At 63, I'm getting ready to schedule another laser treatment.
I'm the same age with what seems to be very similar skin, your pictures are definitely a contributing factor in my decision to move forward with this procedure. TY again!

How do you feel? Can you give us an update?
Sorry for the delay. I'm VERY HAPPY with my results. I've done an update with a picture below. I can really see a difference. I'm now 3 weeks post and am amazed at how quickly it healed and how smooth my face feels. In the picture 2 weeks post, I still had some rough texture and red patches. Now it's VERY smooth!

Day 4

Skin looks and feels better but still tight and dry. I have mafe neck raw by constantly touching it to brush off peeling skin so don't do that! Still very red, a bit hot and dry. Continuing with post procedure products given by plastic surgeon in kit.

Did you get skin tightening on your face? What about your neck... did you get tightening?
I got a little tightening, not a substantial amount. The main benefits were smoothness and texture. I really need a facelift ( age 60) but it's definitely not in the budget. The results are good enough for the price that I had the same procedure on my face and neck a few weeks ago and am posting my review here. Check it out!
