That is me prior to the procedure. As you may notice, my nose is rather red, due to burst blood vessels... So I went to the dermatologist, who suggested pulsed dye laser treatment to like.. pop other vessels to eradicate the redness... Check out the results.


Immediately after the procedure:

I really don't think your nose was red enough to warrant such a procedure.

But on the bright side, it looks like you won't have a nose for much longer...so I guess it was a success.

To the OP: is there a chance you'll be permanently disfigured from this little procedure? Even if that doesn't end up being the case, you have my sympathies for having to put up with this in the first place.

You should have gone to the doctor the minute you saw some puss appear (IE the day after) both are indicators of infection. No problem though, just get a prescription of some tetracyclene (sp) and you will be on your way!

The doctor claims that all the scab-stuff will fall off within the next few days... but gently caress, it's really ghastly. It hurts when I touch it :(

I still want to believe this is bullshit. But assuming it's true it might not be so bad after all. I showed this pic to a friend and she said it looked like the skin underneath looks normal (I would have never noticed). So maybe after the scabs fall off you'll be ok.

Yeah, I can tell that the few patches of clear skin on my nose lack the redness that used to cover my shnozola.
