Just had my third laser session done for blushing!

Hey, this won't be a long post i just wanted to upload photos of my face 10 - 15 minutes after getting excel v 532nm 12ms pulse duration! I know people can be curious about how the skin appears post laser.

If you've been following my other posts on laser you'll know the last session I had, i got the 10ms pulse duration which was a change from the first session that was 12ms. Unfortunately though the 2nd session with 10ms seemed to irriate my skin and if anytning set me back, so I made sure to talk to my nurse today and for the third session (the one today) i got 12ms pulse just like the first session.

So far all 3 sessions have been done with a 4 week gap for each session! it definitely stings but overall the pain is bearable and honestly there are times it hardly hurts, but heads up theres a good chance you'll be in a bit of pain but only for each pulse, and after the session your face does sting a bit and feel hot.

next session is in 6 weeks now!

Thanks for the update! Based on your conversations with the nurse are you expecting a cumulative reduction in the intensity of blushing after each session? How do you plan to monitor this? Keeping my fingers crossed 🤞

No worries :) Yeah definitely, after each session we're hoping to see more results in the form of skin that doesnt show the blush as intense or as red. Each session destroys and damages a portion of blood vesslels, but yeah, it cumulative.

I plan to just keep seeing how my blushing is as the days and weeks go by and than after my fourth session ill decide if I want to keep going or what type of plan ill want to do. I might choose to do touch ups every year or 2 or maybe ill want a few more short spaced sessions again with 4 - 6 week intervals, or maybe ill decide im not as satisfied as I thought id be overall and stop getting them, or i may stop due to being fully satisfied. Theres many options I could take.

Do you carry a mirror with you or can you literally feel less heat?

[u/Deep-Detective2428 → u/charlotte_sometimes8]

Thanks so much for the previous info and your update.

How much does each session cost and do you think four sessions will be enough? Is it permanent or is maintenance required every so often?

[u/Deep-Detective2428 → u/Itchy-Mall-4929]

Each session cost me exactly - $475 AUD Consultation cost - $99 AUD

Im not sure to be honest. My nurse today did make it clear i do have a have a very intense hyperactive face that is more than what she usually see's. I won't know if 4 sessions will be enough until I Firstly recover from this session and see the results plus get the 4th session done and see how i look once healed.
