Guest guest Posted November 10, 2001 Report Share Posted November 10, 2001 I had just read from the group where someone said that their doctor told them that he had actually had some cases where photoderm actually made them worse than before. I really think I am one of them. I have had 11 treatments by one doctor and 3 by another and I am worse than I was last year. When I first got this rosacea, I just flushed when I washed my face. Now I flush over everything. It has been over 5 weeks since my last treatment and I flushed horrible today. All that money wasted. I mean really wasted. The only thing it did for me is that it took care of my face being red after washing it. I just flush and flare more. That is the horrible part too. I also got rosacea on my ears after a couple of photoderm treatments. I want to cry because maybe it wouldn't have gotton this bad if I haven't gotton treatments done. I'm really upset. I am going for v-beam treatment Tuesday. Please wish me luck. I hope this makes me better. God Bless, Sheila __________________________________________________ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 11, 2001 Report Share Posted November 11, 2001 Sheila, I have had five VBeam treatments and five photoderm treatments. With both forms of treatment I responded positively the first couple treatments. Then, with both treatments my skin became more irritated as the treatments progressed. My last photoderm treatment was the middle of September and I am hoping my skin recuperates. You might want to think about resting your skin for awhile before you start VBeam. a Update on all my photoderm treatments >I had just read from the group where someone said that >their doctor told them that he had actually had some >cases where photoderm actually made them worse than >before.
