Provider (individual)
Dr. Gerald Karpman, MD

Provider Facility

Treatment
Peel

Address / Location:

Camarillo, CA 93010, United States

Rating

Benefits
This procedure removes dead skin cells and gives a fresh look to skin.

Drawbacks
Uncomfortable, painful procedure.

Details
I consider myself someone with a high pain threshold, but was not prepared for how much discomfort I would go through with this peel. I received the lowest "grade" peel. The staff did their best to make me comfortable with fans, etc. I also wasn't informed on how much down time was needed to recover. The peeling went on for over a week. I was told it wouldn't be that bad since it was a low grade peel. I didn't plan down time and found that really disappointing. However, saying that, I was pleased with the results. My skin looked fresher and it removed age spots that were starting to appear. At 47 yrs old, with skin that's getting drier everyday, I needed this. I'm still confused about my every changing skin and how to care for it. I've always had nice skin. My biggest complaint is keeping up with the age spots that pop out of nowhere.

Conclusions
I would recommend a peel to anyone, I would just prepare them with the details.
