Went in for pulsed dye and......

[Guest guest]

I had 5 photoderm last summer and was pleased with the

results ,However over the course of the year due to my lifestyle,my

redness returned full force.I went in to see another doctor for

pulsed dye and he said pulsed dye is the wrong laser for my

problemBut that he thought I should do photorejuvenation,With further

investigation turns out this is a photoderm l;aser!!!!!!! and he

charges $800 per a session over twice as much as the other doctor!!!

However he claims he knows all the special settings and that I will

have better longer lasting results.Well I am not going to pay double

so I am going to go back to the other doctor and just do more

sessions hoping to get rid of some of the deeper vessels this time

with more sessions.

Have any of you had long term lasting results with photoderm?

I had two pulse dyes initially, and while they were very beneficial

in some areas of my face, a couple spots actually worsened and

flushed more. I then had two v-beams done. The first v-beam

repaired the spots that pulse dye made worse, and the 2nd v-beam

really cleaned house to the point that seborrhea/light acne was

pretty much all that was left. Just something to ponder if you

aren't satisfied with your pulse dye results.
