I'm 72 and had my second one. The first one was 12yrs ago. Lots of things have changed since my first. For healing he has me wrapping my face and gauze that is soaked in water and vinegar and put in the refrigerator I do this three times a day putting the gauze on and leaving it it is to draw out all the red and your skin from the co. Then I wash my face with my fingertips clean fingertips with a lukewarm water and a pump of serum and I rub it in circular motions very softly I'm almost finished with my pills that they gave me. I already see a change❤
My wife is having CO2 laser performed in Bali, and they say to use the vinegar soaked in gauze or on a babies soft washcloth, 3 times a day. No one in the US seems to advise this for some reason.
Excellent and thorough video. I wish you were my provider! I just got the CO2 laser done today and it was weird because I literally got no post-procedure document, and no real explanation as to what I should be doing after aside from "apply lots of sunscreen". This video helped a lot!
I was told that because my scars on my forehead raised large that the best treatment would be micro needling, and then in the winter in the cooler months when I’m not out so much to get the CO2 fractional resurfacing. Something that you have recommended to your patients.
I just had full face neck and chest. It is not very painful. Had numbing cream and oral pain med at time of procedure, nothing after. It’s really not hard at all and my skin is already looking very good 12 days out!!! I would do it again if I don’t get the results I want. Looking for tightened under eyes but decided to do it all at one time! 😉
Question I am at week 8 Apparently I had a festoon which this treatment has left me with a small lump of edema on one cheek 🤦♀️ lymphatic drainage, jade rolling, ice and pressing on it will not get it out. 🤦♀️ maybe in time? my neck and chest looks kinda waxy Wondering if that will settle down ? Thanks doc ❤
Hey Doc! After my CO2 laser procedure my doctor wants me to use ALASTIN Skincare Regenerating Skin Nectar Face Moisturizer (1 oz). Once I use this tube I'm hoping I can use Aquaphor instead of having to purchase Alastin because it's so expensive. Would it be alright if I did this to use Aquaphor? Thank you for your feedback as I appreciate your advice. I loved the educational video also!
The scars that I mentioned above are burn scars and blunt trauma scars because a Nutribullet blender exploded in my face and the cap which the blades hit my forehead
I think I got left with some edema. I don’t have festoon according to my doc but this is under just one eye and looks like a hammock of fluid. Wondering if this will subside. It’s been 4 months. And it’s not old filler
Hey doc - I had a smas face lift, neck lift upper & lower eyes, and fat transfer to my under eye area upper cheeks, and either side of my nose 2 months ago. Will a laser resurfacing jeopardize my fat transfer ? And how long should I wait ?
I will ask this if my surgeon as well. I take saw palmetto gummy’s for hair loss from thyroid meds and it is working so well!! Should I stop taking it for this procedure?
How many mg, do you take of saw palmetto? Thank you so much! I too have such fine hair due to my thyroid medication, eltroxin/thyroxin. Many thanks, Susan
Can anyone recommend a spf for after co2 laser full face. I’m 12 days out. I don’t wear foundation so it can’t leave a white cast. Thanks ❤ I have never used spf but now I’m protecting my investment 😂

Sounds like a good protocol 👍

Had faced neck and chest done. I would recommend any woman looking for Co to do this❤ everything looks so good. Thanks doc.
Thanks for sharing!!

I did the laser to have a collagen bank. I am over 40 and I am trying to avoid plastic surgery in the future

They must not have gone very deep then
Why do you say that? I did get way tighter under eyes and skin is amazing at month 3
I don’t know how your neck looked prior to your procedure… If it was a little saggy, did the CO2 laser help that?
@@sandi7858 was not bad and it did help to tighten
Can you treat your neck with the CO2 laser and Radiesse at the same time?

I has anestetic injections and it still hurted a lot. Today is day 2 and my face is extremely swollen.
Great job doc, will this help on Malar bags and festoons?
Wow! This is an excellent description for this procedure! Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Very thorough and easy to follow. Thank you!
😊

I had fractional co2 done five months ago. I loved it but I want to get another one at the six month point. Is this risky? I do have mature skin ❤
Does this work to minimise tear trough lines? Fillers are too invasive.
What about big pore restoration? What kind of Lazer would be the best for this?
Hi doctor,
I am 70 with large pores. Will this laser treatment reduce the size of my pores? Thank you.
Very informative I’m getting mine next month 😱
Good luck!!
Very informative! I'm a 54 y/o with some preauricular lines. Would a fractional CO2 laser treatment be better than fillers for this issue? Thank you
Yes, absolutely!

I'm not the doc sorry but how was the face neck lift hope went all well.
Great video thank you 🌸

Always talk with your doctor about everything you're taking.

I’m sorry just now saw this. I now take capsules from Natures Craft 500 mg. And biotin 😉. It does help

Can anyone recommend a spf for after co2 laser full face. I’m 12 days out. I don’t wear foundation so it can’t leave a white cast. Thanks ❤
I have never used spf but now I’m protecting my investment 😂
Does this laser cause fat loss and can it be done on olive skin?
No it can’t, but the UltraClear laser can be used on even the darkest of skin tones 😊 I’d recommend looking into that.
@@drchipcole Many thanks.
@@drchipcole she also asked if it causes fat loss. I didn’t see that you answered that.
Does this tighten skin at all??
Yes 😊
Do you think a 25 year old is a good candidate?
