The treatment went quickly and was quite different from the others. We were still trying to lift some of the stubborn sun damage off my face. This one uses acid which hits the deeper layers, it turns blue and neutralizes when it reaches its desired depth. A cooling fan is going over your face while it is acting. Once finished my face was indeed feeling like I had a sunburn.
I was blue for the rest of the day and night. By the next day there was some remaining blue but mostly just redness and some swelling. I had about a week of downtime with this procedure. My skin had such a glow and felt incredibly smooth after this treatment. I'm really starting to see the change in my skin.
