Hi! Yes, I go back yearly for laser treatments. I can’t speak to skin cancers, as that is something to discuss with your dermatologist 🙂

Thanks!! 

Hi! Since this initial procedure, I have been going back to the same dermatologist about once a year for “maintenance.” They have since gotten more high tech lasers, so I am no longer getting PICO and VBeam. But I am getting one called LaseMD. I have found that it really does help with the sun spots, but you have to be diligent still about using a tinted sunblock or regular sunblock plus foundation to keep the pigmentation at a manageable level. Of course, you could always go in more frequent than once a year, but I am trying to be cost effective.

For me getting just PICO (not v beam) would be around $250, so MUCH less than what you were quoted for bbl! Dr. Linnell is located in Cap Hill, so if you’re local, you should check her out!

Hi Grace! I’ve done 3 treatments so far. I do think it needed more than one to have the effect of having super clear looking skin, but the difference even after just one was significant enough for me to notice. It seems like even when you’ve finished your treatments, it’s recommended to get them again every so often because you will continue to accumulate sun damage over time. I feel like I get them as often as I used to get my hair highlighted now.
