I've done a lot of skin treatments with my dermatologist, Dr. Margaret Corcoran for quite a while now. My acne is now controlled and my deep scars have improved a lot. But I still have a lot of open pores. I did have a session of fractional CO2 laser before, but I haven't had time to undergo another session because I needed to go on leave after the procedure and I can't afford to do so. So my dermatologist suggested the newest treatment in her clinic - Spectra Soft Laser Peel. She said that it's a no downtime treatment for acne and acne-prone skin, oily skin, open pores and dark skin blemishes. She said that it can tighten my pores in around 5 treatments. I got really curious about it so I tried it.
Right after the laser treatment, I just had a little pinkish blush for around 2 hours and it faded out afterwards. There were no scabs, no ugly peeling off. But after 5 days, I noticed that my skin got brighter and softer. Plus after the 3rd session, I noticed significant tightening of my pores, especially around the nose area. The improvement was even way better after the 5th session.

I also noticed that the oiliness of my skin has decreased. My skin looks brighter as well. I get a lot of compliments on the great improvement of my skin. :)
Hi, just came across your skin care posts and found them very informative. I was just wondering, is it true that scars would look wider and deeper after TCA Cross? If yes, how long before theyd go back to normal? I would only have 7 days off from work and am worried that my skin would look worse after the procedure. Thanks.
