My experience occurred almost 10 years ago. The reason I decided on posting this review is that I am still living with the physical and emotional trauma as a result of a minor procedure. I gave 2 stars because Dr. Weiss was a nice and approachable doctor. I've been to this office for another procedure with decent results. Doctor Weiss decided to spot test my under eye with 2 different types of lasers to see which one could help with minor dark circles around my eyes that I was concerned with. He used one type of laser on on the right eye and a different laser under my left eye. I recalled the laser on the left eye is the same one used for tattoo removal. He lasered in the groove above my chin which didnt even have any hyperpigmantation in that area. I Immediatel felt a stinging sensation and when I looked at my face, the skin under my eye where he lasered was abrased and peeling off. When I asked if that was normal, he said yes and put some sort of gel on it and told me to stay out of the sun and follow up in a few weeks Well a few days later my skin started to hyperpigment and turned really dark in the sane area that was burnt. People started asking me what happened to my eye. It looked as if I had a black eye. I returned to the office a short while after to report what had happened. All I recieved was a temporary fix to the issue. I cannot use hydroquinone for the rest of my life. It is not meant for long term use. The black mark returns after use is stopped. I have stayed out of the sun as much as possible and use sunscreen, sunglasses religiously. The scar is still in my face and I've been living with being self conscious and embarrassed all these years.I've had some major depression because of this. I don't have a permanent solution to this issue and I woul like to look at my face once again and like what I see. read more
