    f you are having this procedure, I would highly recommend sleeping on a silk pillowcase regardless of what you use on your skin as it is so much gentler than cotton as your skin will just glide across the fabric rather than hanging up on cotton. I have videos about silk pillowcases, here is one of them if you want more info: @. I also listed the skincare products that I talked about that I used and put links to them in the description area. Wishing you all the best! -Nicole

      My experience wasn’t as bad as some I’ve seen. My procedure went just as yours did. There was tingling and some minor burning during the process. After the process there was some minor burning and the lotion I was given took care of it. Overall, the hardest part of the whole treatment was getting my insurance company to cover it. Which they finally did. Am I glad I did it? Yes! Thanks again for posting your experience. It made me less apprehensive about going through it.

      Hi Will, I wish your mom all the best. I do not have the video up yet but I had the procedure done again as my spots came back and they left the medication on for 3 hours this time (instead of 1.5 hours) and they let me go home in between and I had a completely different experience. My face got super swollen and red and peeled badly. In the end, it turned out OK and I looked totally normal again but it was a rough few weeks. I'm sure your mom will do great. Make sure she really stays out of the light as long as they tell her to.

Like you, growing up in the 70's and 80's I used to fry myself with baby oil to get that California tan!! We had no idea what it could do!! Stay out of the sun, guys!! Wear sunscreen!!!

    Thank you for this video. I'm also in the SF Bay Area. My plastic surgeon recently recommended that I start the Levulan PDT. He's had the treatment 4 times and has found it very effective. We both have the same ethnicity (Northern European), skin type (pale, burns but doesn't tan), and eye color (blue), making us high risk for skin cancer. We are both outdoor people who never wore sunscreen until recently, so lots of potential damage from our younger years. He also has AKs. I don't, but I do have a history of skin cancer in the immediate family (father and sister). I've also had several skin cancers myself.
    At mid-life I realize that all of our past sun-sins come home to roost and it's common to experience skin growths on the face. So far most have been harmless Seb-K growths that can be removed with liquid nitrogen and leave no scar. But several were stubborn and resistant to treatment, so my dermatologist took biopsies. The result was one SCC and one BCC. I had Mohs surgery for each, then down the hall to a plastic surgeon to close the wounds. I really don't want to do that again and am hoping that Levulan PDT can help destroy cells that may contribute to future cancers.
    My procedure is scheduled for January 8, 2020. I'm having my entire face, ears, and neck done. I've been told that the medication will be on my skin for about 2 hours. Then off to the blue light. It's hard to know exactly what to expect, as every person's experience with the pain is so different.
    I live in a dark house (by choice) so the first few days shouldn't be an issue. However, I am on the computer for nearly 18 hours a day. I've been told that if I severely dim my display, the light shouldn't be an issue. I suppose I can always wrap a scarf around my face just to be safe.

I had it done a second time where they left the medication on for 3 hours and ended up in the ER that night. 100% different experience than this video. I used to bake in the sun in the 70's and 80's and that is totally coming back to haunt me now! I pray that your procedure worked for you and that you are feeling OK.

      My experience with PDT was unremarkable. Levulan was applied to my face, ears, and neck all the way down to my shoulders. The medication was allowed to incubate for 2 hours under an overhead light. I expressed concern about the light and was told not to worry about it.
      After incubation I was placed under the blue light. I expected it to be very warm and wore only a camisole so I wouldn't overheat. Instead I nearly froze in the air conditioned treatment room as the blue light gave off no heat that I could detect. Thus, I declined the fans. I experienced no discomfort to the treated area while under the blue light. I did have a minor tingling sensation on my lips even though Levulan was not applied there. The tingling sensation was similar to a cosmetic lip plumper.
      After the blue light treatment, I was reminded to stay out of the sun and to keep my windows covered. To my surprise, I was told that I could use normal household lighting and that my computer screen required no dimming.
      When I left the office my face was mildly red. My ears and neck were not. I wore a wide brimmed hat, large sunglasses, and a lightweight ski mask to make the drive from Sunnyvale to Fremont. Once home, I applied Cerave and spent the rest of the day sleeping.
      I checked my skin the following day and the red had intensified, but only between my cheeks and my chin. My forehead had a faint pink glow, as did my ears and neck. So faint it was hard to see. There was no discomfort or swelling.
      The red had mostly disappeared by the second day. No peeling yet. I almost look normal. So I continue to reapply Cerave and wait for something to happen. I'm on the third day, and no change.
      Compared to the experiences of others, I'm not sure what to make of my experience. I watched the Levulan applied to the areas I requested. I incubated for several hours. The blue light was intensely bright. Yet still no major reddening, discomfort, or swelling. I don't know what to think. This was all too easy. I'm considering calling the office tomorrow and talking with one of the nurses to get their feedback.

    Thank goodness you were diligent and caught it in the early stages. I'm sooooo relieved and ridiculously happy that it's gone. And it can stay gone. Your husband is such a sweetheart covering the windows. Bless him. Wishing you bucket loads of good luck. Much love to you Nicole, ❤🌼❤🌻❤

I was thinking they would only be treating the actual area, not my entire face. I'm really concerned and after seeing many videos not sure how well I will do with this. I will need MOHS and Reconstruction surgery later, this is being done to try and shrink the size of the BCC, so that the surgery will not have to be as invasive and complex. I am now totally dreading it. I also have a lot of windows and skylights in my home and getting any room dark, is going to be a challenge! Oh my!!

They take small layers at a time and send them to the Lab until they have clear margins. IN my case, because of the location and size the know it will be pretty complex and that's why I'll need reconstructive surgery to repair the area. NOT happy or looking forward to any of this. From what I have learned, your second experience seems to be more of the norm and that is not fun. Plus, it's only to try and shrink this before surgery, I will still need surgery...!

I would highly recommend a silk pillowcase regardless of what you use on your skin as it is so much gentler than cotton, (I have videos about silk pillowcases, here is one of them ruclips.net/video/xHLWtxrBgFw/видео.html) and you can find my favorite one here at any of these stores: Dermstore (often has 20% off) : go.magik.ly/ml/a272/, Sephora: go.magik.ly/ml/a26v/, Nordstrom: go.magik.ly/ml/a272. xoxo -Nicole

    One more question... can you watch tv after the treatment? Thanks.

      I'm getting the procedure done in a few days. I've been told to avoid TV and computer unless the screen is dimmed way down low. I will probably wear a scarf around my face just in case.

    I had this done last week on my face. Ouch ouch ouch. Do not even walk to the mailbox after this is done. Your face will burn and blister up.

      Oh my gosh Tom I agree, absolutely do not go outside. I could feel the burn at a window where the shade was up. Those first three days you have to be a mole haha. Hope you are feeling better!

      @@TheNicoleSanchez its been 8 days and the dead skin is off and now my skin is very tender. I have had several moh's surgery's from squamous cell skin cancer. Now i have basal cell and they wanted to do moh's surgery again. I don't want my face cut on again so they did this treatment. This is 50% effective so i hope it works. Cutting is 97% effective.

      chrisiden depending on your health insurance plan, you can expect to just pay for the medicine they put on your face, so for me was about $450

      My insurance covered it 100%.

    • @cjbolan8059
      @cjbolan8059 4 года назад

      Medicare covers full 80% (100% if you also have a Medicare Supplement policy to cover the remaining 20%).
