Waking up to clear, radiant skin in just 30 days. Sounds like a dream, right? Well, let me tell you, it's not just a dream—it's my reality. Under the expert guidance of my holistic dermatologist, I embarked on a journey to banish my bacterial and fungal acne in just 35 days. It wasn't easy. It required sacrifices, investments, and a whole lot of determination. But let me tell you, it was worth every penny and every moment of effort. And now, I'm here to spill all the secrets and show you how you can achieve the same transformation. So, how much would you pay for flawless skin? Let's find out together.
How Did I Heal So Fast?
This process of healing my skin was possible because of one hero—Laser Resurfacing. Dr. Sandy also included a few chemical peels each session. These treatments were the backbone of my regimen and played a significant role in getting peaceful skin so fast.
Benefits of Laser Resurfacing
Laser resurfacing is like a superhero for your skin, swooping in to save the day. Even if you don't suffer from acne, Dr. Sandy encourages it quarterly for her patients. The downtime was minimal, and my skin was only red for a few hours. The benefits include:
Acne and acne scarring
Uneven skin tone and texture
Sun damage and age spots
Hyperpigmentation
Tightened Skin
Texture Improvement
Line and wrinkle reduction
Promotes Collagen production
Do Laser Treatments and Chemical Peels Hurt?
Yes and no. Laser resurfacing felt good to me. It's more of a warm sensation with minimal discomfort. We immediately followed the laser treatment with a chemical peel. Now, the chemical, on the other hand—that was 'spicy.' However, with each session, it got easier and more manageable.
How Much?
About 95% of my treatment expenses came out of my own pocket. While some medications were covered with a copay, most insurances do not cover laser treatments.
Laser resurfacing is an investment in your health, with each session costing $750. Over a 5-week period, I underwent 3 sessions, spaced 2-3 weeks apart as recommended. Additionally, expenses for prescriptions, herbal supplements, and skincare products totaled $390.
Total Investment: Approximately $2650
