recovery from plastic is perfect time for face peel
I have a friend who is a face plastic surgeon and blessed me with a gift of a face peel during my recovery. A face peel is something that you don't really want to be seen for about 7 to 10 days because your face is red, brown, and well...peeling. So...perfect to be home while you recovery from your plastics. Then you go back to the real world really looking fresh! ;)
Anyway, just thought I would share that idea out there.

I considered it during my immediate postop time but decided against it because I was scared to ask my body to do any more healing since I was already struggling with low iron and my surgeon agreed. I really would love to see and hear how yours went though because I'm getting one soon. What level peel did you do?
Thanks!!

Well , you know I had the major iron issues and needed infusions before I could have surgery. My plastic surgeon was fine with it and actually said it was perfect timing and wouldn't interfere with my body healing. I did a laser peel. Today I look like I should be running around screaming "I'm melting, I'm melting.." LOL

Perhaps if I'd have gotten my iron up I'd have braved it. I'm doing a chemical peel--I'm told it is a mid level and I should be able to venture out in public even with the after effects. We'll see about that. Think I'll plan it for right after Thanksgiving so I'm better for Christmas.
Have a good day!

My buddy the doc told me that the laser hurts being done and the chemical hurts afterwards. I haven't had any pain just slight discomfort with tightness, itching kind of thing. But, they had to give me versaid (however you spell it) during the actual treatment.
