Hello everyone. Well, I decided to go with a series of 4 Sono-peels followed by 6 Photofacials for my upper arms. Sono-peels are supposed to be a gentler version of microdermabrasion and it is supposed to be less traumatic. I don't know if anyone else has tried this treatment or has any idea of whether or not it actually works. The doctor told me that I shouldn't expect perfect skin and that something will always be there. It seems as though the sono-peels and photo-facial should work a 100 times faster than regular exfoliating at home and using over the counter creams. I thought that the doctor would be more enthusiastic and optimistic about my results. Or maybe I was expecting more. Anyhow, she also prescribed me a topical lotion that I am supposed to apply twice a day and I just gave in the prescription so I am not too sure of the names of the ingredients but it is basically AHA and some sort of anti-biotic. I go tomorrow to start on the Sono-peels and I might be put on some more lotions. Has anyone heard of OBAGI? Well, I will keep everyone posted on what happens....Good luck to everyone in whatever you are trying.
