Pearl Laser anyone? Need Advice

ICIrisheyes · 01-13-2009, 10:21 AM

Has anyone had a Pearl Laser treatment? Seen it on the TV show The Doctors.
I plan on having something done soon for my skin. I have worked outside for 15 years in road construction. I have lots of SUN damage to my face. I always used sunblock. The wind and sun have made my skin dry and chapped.
I also plan on having a face lift. Should I wait to have face lift then have Laser treatment after face lift? I also need a brow lift. I think my Insurance will cover this, I have a vision thing going on . I have trouble seeing because of my eyebrow's drooping so much. Any and all advice from others would be of great help.
Thank You

Hi, I think your insurance would cover the cost of eye surgery to correct "hooded" eyelids that interfere with your vision. I think this procedure would be more effective than a browlift for this condition. Never had Pearl laser treatment, but did have a mid-face lift and am very happy with the results. In my opinion, a laser treatment will change the appearance and texture of your skin, but won't make a dramatic change in sagging or wrinkles. Surgery is a more permanent and longer lasting procedure. Good luck to you in your decision.
