It was on the right orbital bone and thanks to my Yonka Phyto Contour, it is nearly gone.

You're welcome! I'm so glad it's helping. I couldn't be without it right now. A mask each AM takes care of my under eye issues beautifully.

</ p> so thank you to all who responded to my question about the Acme. I knew that it was not supposed to be used on that type of skin however I was just wondering if anybody had tried it and what their experience was. What my question is in regards to what type of products to use. When people say that you should stay away from high levels of actives does that mean directly after treatment? Or during the whole 8 or 12 weeks of treatment? Because I have read that the holes close up within 15 to 20 minutes so in my opinion you should be saved to do your regular skin care if it does contain some active but you should probably stay away from things that are extra hard. However I would think that at some point during your treatment like say the next morning after treatment if you want to do something with a higher level of active that it really shouldn't hurt you too much or am I on the wrong path of thinking here? I'm just trying to figure out what the proper procedure would be for active because I have seen people say that they use Retin A right after and it's not bothering them but then I've seen people that saved and I read this that kind of scares me so I'm just trying to figure out what is really the best method to use hair I would appreciate your feedback thanks.

Pardon, are you referring to after derma rolling or after the Tria. think we got sidetracked here on this Tria thread so wanted to be sure all knew which technology you are inquiring about.

If it is derma rolling, yes, you can use regular skincare by the next day unless for some reason there is any redness or irritation then wait until it's gone. I've got to sign off for now but will try to get back here later and see if you responded and if anyone gave you suggestions.

LYN, I copied this to my files so I'm good to go for you removing if you choose. Thank you so much as I have not seen any chart even similar to this, with such specific instructions. I would have used longer strokes, I'm afraid and now I'll know the proper procedure.

I do have a question and will also check Clinical Resolution's site. I was over there last night but was focusing on the products you mentioned so didn't wonder around much beyond that.

My question is this - the arrows are on both ends of each line so does that indicate that we roll up and then down (or one side then to the other) I know it is recommended that we lift up the roller at each end but just want to be sure I do the appropriate amount of rolling each way too. I much prefer this method as I think it is more accurate and focused where long strokes might have you not cover some of the smaller areas.

Thanks much, lyn,

Okay, now you've got me seriously paying attention about the Yonka.

I was reading about festoons, and apparently the current "best" procedure is a laser treatment. It's a specific type of laser, and the caution was to be sure to receive the treatment from somebody who specifically uses it to treat festoons. (Also a caution to be sure you research different lasers generally because a physician/derm will promote the type s/he has. Best to utilize someone who has and uses a variety of lasers).

If it is derma rolling, yes, you can use regul ar thanks for your response. No I am speaking about the Tria laser. I am trying to determine what types of actives I can use and when. I know it would not be appropriate to flat iron right name right after a treatment I would never do that. I guess I am just trying to figure out if it would be okay to use it say on one of the days I took off for the week or are you something with retinol the next morning or something like that. Does that make sense? skincare by the next day unless for some reason there is any redness or irritation then wait until it's gone. I've got to sign off for now but will try to get back here later and see if you responded and if anyone gave you suggestions.
