laser surgery age spots

Thank you for your comments about the laser and brown spots in my cheeks, but i have a question now, i've had the laser 3 times and my spots are getting darker is this normal?. after the procedure ( make for a certified doctor) my skin gets red and then dark for some days ( is like burned skin), and after 4 or 5 days this burned skin is gone but the brown spots still there but darkers. should i stop the laser treatment or keep going for more?. Thank you.

Hi, Infrared technology through LASER technology has been used to treat skin conditions including age spots. Age spots however, are diagnosed based on a complete physical examination. How old are you? Age spots or liver spots as the name implies present as one ages.Thus,when one is younger the use of sunscreen on the face and other sun exposed parts of the body may be beneficial.

Light, dark spots, floaters post laser are frequently reported here. use the search feature and read the many posts from about about their experience post laser to retina.

I got very excited about the idea but before i take a step, could you please advice me if my age is the ryt age to get a laser eye surgery, as my aunt warned me of my age to be very young. she advised me to be atleast 24+.

What TYPE of laser is most effective in removing these spots?! Is there anything new? Also, could vitamin K supplements help fade them? Thanks for answers.

After surgery, Laser Retinal Laser (PRP) has a steady shadow in my eye. what do you think? I went back to the same doctor and did not help and just dropped an eye.

He saw his GP who referred him to an eye specialist. The eye specialist found that he had a retinal tear. My brother just completed laser surgery (Monday afternoon) to seal the tear. After surgery he said the spots and rings were gone and he felt relieved. By evening (about 5 hours later), he said the spots came back but not as severe. He's concern again. Is this "normal" for the spots and ring symptoms to come back like this.

s PDR IS INACTIVE and they DO NOT HAVE ANY NEW BLOOD VESSEL GROWTH, and already had about 1200 laser spots, do they need any more, if so why and how many? Does one get laser spots (surgery) just because there is SPACE for it, although there isn't any activity? (4 questions, 4 answers please) Thank you!

Hello, Fordyce spots and pearly penile papules cannot be removed as such by any ointment or cream. Treatment of Fordyce spots includes CO2 laser or electro desiccation, TCA chemical peels(temporary treatment),diathermy or laser vaporization and for peraly penile papules ablation using carbon dioxide laser, electrodesiccation with curettage, and excisional surgery reportedly have successfully eliminated lesions.In my opinion you should talk to a cosmetologist/dermatologist about this.

This morning, I had quite a few age spots removed from my face and hands via Q-switched Yag Laser. The spots were quite red when done, but now the redness is fading and some of the spots on my hand seem to be darker than they were before. Is this typical for this type of treatment? I did quite a bit of research prior to having the procedure done and was told this was one of the most effective treatments to eliminate age spots.

he will be able to reduce it to normal by laser. i would like to know how much could be the success chance in my case and does the laser have major side effects?

At the age of 27 I was diagnosed with fordyce granuales. I was told that I could have laser surgery to have them removed. I am kind of interested in doing that, but I was curious of the side affects if any and if Iwere to do that would they come back?

Things are still wavy and I see a purple/red hue off to the left of my eye. My question is that since the laser surgery it appears almost that there are 2 spots now so is it typical for the bubble (mine was oblong) to heal in different sections creating the illusion of 2 spots? I am worried that a new spot may be appearing or is this a normal part of the healing process? Thank you for any info. I have a recheck on Dec 15th.

Hope it helps. Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing or in case you have additional queries. Kind regards.

Does anyone know how to get rid of age spots? Can't afford expensive surgery so need something I can do at home. Yes, they are AGE SPOTS not cancer - I checked with my family MD. But she didn't give me any tips on how to get rid of them (I forgot to ask). They're on my face, small but what can I say... vanity!

He recommends me to do a laser to fix it. His reason is that the tear is small, the number spots of laser will be small as well and this will have less impact to my vision. If I wait until the tear to get bigger, I need to have more laser spot. I have a few questions like to ask your advice ? - How likely this spot will get bigger or even lead to detachment ? - How many spots do I need for such a small holes/tears ? - How effective the laser can stop the tears be getting bigger ?

Retina surgery is unique (how many laser spots, what size, what power, where located) that it is not possible to generalize. As a generalization most pain and discomfort is gone 6-8 weeks post treatment. Some people see a dark or light spot 180 degree opposite of where the laser was placed that lasts for months to as long as a year.

If they are cosmetically displeasing or prone to bleeding, angiomas may be removed by surgery, freezing (cryotherapy ), burning (electrosurgery/cautery), or laser. Let us know if you need any other information. Regards.

One Doctor of Liaquat National Hospital told me that cataract will be treated in a surgery at the age of 40 or more. After 2 months, I again feel some disturbance I decided to take an appointment from some other other consultant near Lasania Restaurant, Karachi, Pakistan.

Hello, I am seeing the same black cobwebs and floating spots, that I had before the laser surgery was done three days ago. I also see a yellow light especially if in a dark room at night, that appears in the corner of my eye. This light is shaped like an arch and does not flash. I will call the doctor's office on Monday, with my concerns. My next scheduled appointment is May 29.

All the retina specialist told me is that he will laser about 8 lattice degeneration places first and then do the vitrectomy, followed by cataract surgery. He said 3 surgeries. I've had one retina tear, and one lattice degeneration spot had a hole. The laser surgery for the hole wasn't too bad, but the tear was bigger and the surgery took longer. The burning was almost more than I could stand, plus having that blinding light in my eye and looking at the top left corner for so long.
