Beauty Tips For Body Care
I have had this sunspot on my upper left cheek for at least half a decade. I didn’t have a skin care routine until about two years ago when I really started to try and get this bad boy off my face. I tried a bunch of different acids/serums/spot treatments, you name it. I get monthly microderm facials and nothing seemed to help.It wasn’t a huge problem for me until a few months ago my younger, teenage brother was talking to me one night when I wasn’t wearing makeup and randomly asked me if I had always had this spot. I immediately started researching laser removal options and booked an appointment with a derm to fully understand my options.I get to the derm and start asking her about laser removal options. She told me, to my surprise, a laser is not necessary and she can freeze it off right here right now with liquid nitrogen. I was super anxious as I usually research anything and everything meticulously and am not usually an impulsive person especially when it comes to my face lol. She told me the procedure takes less than a minute, healing time is typically two weeks, and I would be able to cover the aftermath with makeup. I figured what the heck and went for it.At this point please see this imgur link to see before/during/after photos of the whole process.I wanted to document this because as soon as I got home I was so anxious and started to Google this procedure like a crazy person and hardly found anything on it. The few posts I saw however, were all positive. The only thing I would have done differently is not gone out the same night I got this done and caked my face in makeup. Probably wasn’t the best for this lil spot. However, I am very happy with the results and would do this again. The little scar that is left over is way easier to conceal with makeup than the sunspot was. I apply scar gel to it every night in hopes to speed up the healing process. I would recommend this to a friend or family member as long as they have no where important to go to in the following days. I live in the US and I believe this was $90 after insurance paid their part. As always, YMMV.If I left anything out or if you have any further questions - please ask!
