Guest guest Posted December 22, 1999 Report Share Posted December 22, 1999 Hello everyone! I'm doing OK after my 3rd photoderm treatment yesterday. My last photoD was done in June and left me with some pretty horrendous burn marks--power too high, crystal/filter the wrong size/type?? I'm not sure as they were very secretive about their settings and also, if I may add, too aggressive for my tastes! Yesterday, I had my 3rd treatment done here in Tacoma; we used mostly a 570 filter at a 50j setting with the " Vasculight " machine. The treatment wasn't nearly as awful as the ones this past spring and I actually can't say that it felt like a firecracker blowing up in my face with each flash; this felt less intense---oh, and I believe this was set at a triple pulse. I look somewhat blotcy today--so what else is new.......and it is well coverable with make up; now for my next appt which is in the end of January, I won't go in with foreboding and trepidation, thinking I'll be coming out of there with a face full of horrible purple marks; because I have confidence that I won't--not at this place! Generally, overall, I'm pleased Hope this helps, Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
