Since my last electrolysis session 1 month ago I have these 3 lines/twinkles in the face.
Everything else is Ok, but those marks. Curiosly thats the part where the electrologyst started working on.
So It looks to me like wrinkles from bad electrolysis.
¿Is it supposed to heal? ¿In that case, you know how long?
I must admit i had to look twice to see them. So be assured that nobody ecxept You will recognize these wrinkles. Which won’t make it any better if the cause was really electrolysis.
If that treatment really has been the cause, it will heal over time.
BTW: Your skin looks older than “20”. How normal is the onset of the first natural wrinkles in Your age?
Even if you had “bad electrolysis” one month is way too soon to notice “wrinkles.” I think you are looking very intently at your face and seeing things that were always there but went unnoticed. Unless you had severe redness, swelling, and scabbing after your treatment I don’t think you have anything to worry about.
I’m in agreement with this statement.
I would like to see a before picture of this area if you have one?
Actually some of the fine structue of the skin is only noticeable because of the absence of hairs in the treated area. Have a look on the ups and lows visible on the shade boundary…
Well, actually I’m still in the 20, but I’ll be 30 in 4 months.
I know It doesn’t look young. How can I Improve it? Chemical peeling maybe? I like Photorejuvenation aswell (I did it once)
I don’t undestand the last question. What do you mean?
I’m in agreement with this statement.

Well, I had my other treatment 6 months ago, and my last one about 1. I’ll try to look for a before picture with a good detail.
Not to nit pick this to death, but I see areas above the area that look similar to the the three “arrowed” areas. That’s why a before picture, of BOTH SIDES, would be helpful. Our faces are not perfect. Some of us have really big pores that are naturally there. What does another person see when they look at your face as you converse with each other? Do you think they are fixated on the “arrowed” section? Has anyone close to you asked what happened to your face?
Maybe the best would be finding a way to accept Your skin as it is. Youl’ll be getting more and more wrinkles in the future anyway - larger ones and deeper ones than those - and need to learn to live with them.
I would keep away from Photorejuvenation and stuff like this if i were You. It will mostly help the Dermatologist’s purse. BTW: a well done beard removal should have a similar effect on the skin as all that Fraxel laser and Dermaroller stuff, since the wounds it produces are similar: It is all about putting deep narrow wounds into the skin and stimulation a healing process of this wound.
Therefor You might even ask if the wrinkles might not be a side effect of the photorejuvenation. If the wrinkles are a side effect by some injury of the skin it is more or less impossible to distinguish from photorejuvenisation and electrolysis as a cause.
I guess I’ll weigh-in on this too … what the heck.
LIGHTING: Well, the OP surely did a great job lighting the area to show-up the imperfections. When I look at my own “kisser” in my bathroom mirror, the left side looks WAY more of a prune-out than the right side (light pours-in from the window on the left). In the other bathroom, the light comes in from the right and, you guessed it, now the right side looks like an old dried-out walnut. Lighting!
OVERALL HEALING: It takes a long time to see the final result. Especially on thin skin, patients will notice all the “silly stuff” the skin does called “the healing process.” I’ve explained this before, but specific cells pull-in the skin and, (especially visible on the cheeks) you might see a few temporary “divots” for a few months. In pretty much all cases, they go away.
ALWAYS: I’ve done this “beard sculpting” a LOT and the cheeks always present temporary “goofed-up” looking skin for a few months. I’m remembering a young actor I worked on and he probably phoned me no less than 50 times throughout the treatment process (felt like a hundred). “Oh my God, my face looks like the MOON! I’m destroyed; you’ve ruined my career.” LOTS of reassurances from me and, WOW, now the skin is perfect. (For that entire time, I just left my rug stuck to the ceiling … I mean, what’s the point?)
Unless this kid got a post-treatment infection, I think this will resolved without “nuthin’!” All seriousness aside, I hope my post helped!
Thanks for your answer Michael.
You give hope, I don’t know if the story you are telling is true but at least you give hope haha (I guess it is)
I’ll just take it easy and see how it evolves. I have another picture but the light doesn’t help to see the details. It’s made with FLASH, and I think Flash is the makeup of te pictures. It makes you look better and you can’t appreciate the real deal.
Thanks for your answer, honestly
Well, the point is that I really felt a diference with photorejuvenation, specially with spots. I had (and I have) some sun spots and now they are 70% less visible thanks to it.
There are things that are too much obvius to be like that, like considering the wrinkle a side effect of the Photorejuvenation because I made it 2 years ago, in 2012.
I ask to a dermatologist about Peelings and all told me that I don’t need that, but when I asked about Photorejuvenation they said, Yeah, no problem with that.
So I don’t know what to think. I really felt well after it.
