It is highly unlikely for anyone to actually post a personal before and after photo   Why don't you visit a dermatologist to inquire about fraxel or pixel fractional co2?

[prettydefined]

Hi sis. Who tried Fractional co2 laser in Holy King? Okay ba sa kanila?

What is the difference between this and revlite sis? sorry OT Im confused kung ano pwede saken mga sis.

[chatteraddict]

Hi mga sis, baka naman you can help me.
I have a bad case of acne scars and i went to Shinagawa for consult. (they did my lasik, i was happy with it so im considering them). They're offering me for 5 sessions of Fractional co2 and 5 facials for 39k. Is the rate ok? Hindi pa ako nag pa consult sa iba since i don't know where to go kasi wala akong derma talaga. Maybe you can help me to look for other places or if you think Shinagawa's offer is a good rate.

Thanks!

Hi sis. Sa holy king meron ngayon promo 1499 per session. Pero wala pa din ako naririnig na feedback about it kung okay sa kanila tho madami din sila branch.

The price sounds fair if they are using a USFDA approved machine and check lang that it is a common treatment with them    With Lasik treatment I think gamay na nila yun, not sure with dermatology and laser.  You can also check with skin house and consult with the dermatologist.  They have good feedbacks

Can anyone elaborate what happens during downtime like redness na lang ba or may peeling/scabbing at saka gaano katagal ang downtime? Dapat ba clear na ang skin or puwede na may kaunting acne ok lang?

I really want to try this kaso nakakahiya naman pumasok sa office kung sobrang peeling. I tried once yung TCA peel at 2 weeks ang downtime. Nakakahiyang lumabas.

And if anyone can recommed a clinic? So far I'm looking into trying 6f kaso pricey kasi sa kanya pero siya kasi ang derma ko before.

I really hope someone can answer, so desperate kasi ako na mawala ang acne scars ko. Nababawasan ang level ng confidence ko

i agree! the burning sensation stays on for several minutes din and the ice roller helps alleviate the momentary pain.

Hi Ms. Herroyalbleakness... I sent you a PM. c",)

[prettydefined]

Hi sissies! I just had my fractional laser yesterday. Tolerable naman ang pain and meron naman din emla
After the procedure sobra pula ng face. I can show you pictures in PM if you like. 2nd day today hindi na masyado. pero hindi smooth ang face nung nag hilamos ako. hehe. Because of the grid siguro. Hindi rin  masyado visible yung grid saken. I just put sunblock today. Then meron meds for tonight lalagay topical lang naman.

By the way I had it at Holy King. Si Dra. Jen mismo gumawa. Sobra okay and mabait pati staff nila.
Hindi rin pushy sa pagbili ng meds. 

[smiles_alwayz]

Sa mga sissies natin here, i would like to say thank you to all of you who have shared their experiences and tips regarding this procedure.. i gathered most info here than from any other sites...

ill be joining the bandwagon soon kasi im scheduled to have my first fraxel done this april 8... sobrang research galore ako before deciding about this procedure kasi nga its mahal....i too will give updates regarding my progress☺

[prettydefined]

Hi sissies! Im back as promised to give my feedback. I had my fractional laser last April 1. Now April 6. ang kinis and white ng face ko. Meron pa konting crusting sa side ng face malapit sa ears. Pero mukhang malapit na din mawala. ANg bilis ng progress ata saken bakit ganun kaya. Pero thankful ako wala [textspeak!] burn or anything ang face ko. The doc said open pores ako sa nose. Bukas 2nd visit ko sa clinic nila. Check ni dra progress.
 

[smiles_alwayz]

Hi prettydefined! Ako din. Kakatapos lang ng fractional ko Kahapon. Kay doc sixf ako...
its my 2nd day today, sunog pa face ko and medyo tight. Yung parang may egg sa mukha... applied generously ko yung sunblock. Halatang halata yung burnt kaya yung family ko nagtanong talaga kung anong ginawa ko sa face ko. ang sabi ko peeling lang. Yoko sabihin fractional at price kasi marami ko maririnig kay mama....hahaha

Nagpunta ko sa clinic 1:45pm, naapplyan ako ng anaesthesia 2pm pero yung laser ko started around 5:30pm. Natapos 6:06pm
Daming patient na inuna before me.😕

Sana lang pag nakita ko na yung result, the wait would be uber worth it.

[smiles_alwayz]

On my seventh day and Sobrang pula pa din ng face.

was advised to use just sunblock and retinoic acid For the after care.

I've been undergoing fractional CO2 dati pa pero never naman ako umabot na mapula ng 1 week.. usually ako overnight lang. The next few days medyo may roughness lang ng konti pero pwedeng pwede lagyan ng make up or just leave it as it is, ok lang din. Kaya ko din pumasok sa ofc, the next day.

I'm sure that it's working kasi marami namang nakakapansin na naging smooth skin ko plus parang wala daw ako pores sa mukha.

Baka your skin heals faster than most people lang.  Yung scabbing sa 3rd day yan diba?  What machine ginamit sayo?

[catwoman]

^baka nga sis not sure.....but kung obvious scabbing wala e...pero kung scabbing na matatawag yung roughness baka yun na yon....di ko alam sis yung machine na gamit pero yung last treatment ko tinaasan ng doctor ko yung setting kasi na feel ko yung sting konti pero tolerable naman...pero right after the treatment may redness talaga..naglagay pa nga ako ice pack..1 week na ko now and so far so good...i wear minimal or no makeup minsan, init rin kasi

[nicoletta]

^ Ok   Normally 7 to 10 days kasi ang waiting period for the down time.  Pixel Co2 is definitely better than Revlite for skin rejuvenation pati yung deep acne scars.

[smiles_alwayz]

another update - [16th day].... may mga nakapansin na ang smoothness ng face ko... pansin ko din naman na lumiit yung pore size ko pero may maliit na portion na sunog pa din. isa sa cheek saka medyo dot dots sa forehead... no regrets naman kasi onti lang saka am still using retinoic pa rin kaya feeling ko mawawala din to. im planning to continue this treatment. sabi ni doc 1 or 2x lang need ko kasi ang problem ko lang naman is poresize.

i would recommend this treatment to anyone who is feeling hopeless na . may downtime nga lang but you can already see the result in one session.

[real.beautyqueen]

just had my fractional laser with dermabest bearable naman yung pain. My face is a bit swollen and red, mahapdi at feeling banat. I am using la roche Posay Cicaplast for fast healing

hi! may i ask how long was your down time? and how's the severity of it? yung tipong di ka ba makakalabas for a week.. please.. please.. answer me
