Mens Facial Thread...

Not student la... I think I managed to get my current package because it was new and the receptionists just allowed it haha. Don't think will be so good after my package finishes.

Was told to wait 2 weeks also, but shortest break is 1 week if you stop breaking out from the lasers (if any).

Eyes were covered so the only thing I could distinguish was the carbon laser (the carbon smells kinda gross). Basically we did a little bit of acne (still have some breakouts below jawline) and concentrated mostly on the scars. I asked to increase the intensity of the scars and was warned that it may increase downtime. Opted for it anyway, and I'm glad I did. I always have two days off after 1 work day, and I always go on my first off, so I always have 1.5 days to recover. My redness subsided this morning, but I can feel a new layer of skin growing because the places where he lasered (read: basically my entire face) feel a little rough to touch. The previous time this happened I experienced some peeling, so I think that's a good gauge of whether you actually need the full two weeks or not.

My first 2-3 sessions didn't see much difference also, and I got a few new pimples after one of those sessions also. Not sure if it's related. Try discussing the intensity of the treatment with him if you want. He's very flexible

Can advise the website?
I have a bit of scar on both my cheek also and wanna remove them

Here's the website for Gangnam Laser Clinic! http://www.gangnamlaser.com/

Edit: What scars are we talking about? The clinic has tools to help with physical and just pigmentation (browning or redding)

Hey guys, any good facial place for dark ring removal? (doesnt involve surgical)

 

[CITIZENCAN]

how much a typical facial costs nowadays for adult men?!

 

[xeonboy]

Just wondering, do any of you guys here wear BB cream to work or when going out? Does it make the face look too feminine?

I wear it only when going out because my work environment is not suitable.
Most importantly get a tone that is close to your neck's skin tone if not it will look very unnatural.

Not familiar with any firming treatments, but start with using sunscreen. It'll at least minimize any other aging effects the sun has on our skin

Aging and sagging are inevitable part of the aging process. The loss or breakdown of the collagen gets worse as you get older. Products alone won't be enough but is better than nothing.

If you want to stop sagging, you can consider a lifting treatment. You need something to stimulate the collagen to hold up the skin and provide that lifted effect. Depending on the severity, the options are:
1) Laser
2) HIFU
3) Threadlift

I have tried all of them. The best effect was threadlift.

Anyone familiar with v-beam lasers or IPL? After much consideration, I think I'd like to try at least 1 alternative treatment session for my red acne marks. Gangnam is cheap, and I'm getting results to a certain degree, but I'd like faster results. I'd say I got about 10%-20% improvement after 5 sessions.

I've personally tried Gangnam twice and am wondering if they intentionally use a lower power so that their customers need more visits to achieve the same effect that could have been achieved in lesser visits by other clinics? I'm not expecting miracles to happen after one or two treatments but there seems to be no difference at all

Thinking that may be the case also... lol

Only on my 4th session did I actually experience any real redness after the session

Edit: On the bright side though, I was given a free partial fractional (that didn't count against the 1 free session of full fractional I was supposed to get) as part of my package. My face looks horrid now, but marks that I remember having on the left side of my face (the side where most of the scabbing has dropped off) are gone.

Kinda mixed feelings. The whole fractional thing makes me feel that the doctor really cares, but ultimately it's the results that really matters.

I think I know how you feel.

I thought it was very nice of the doctor to combine different kinds of lasers for the different types of problem I had in one session (i.e. only pay for one session). However, in the end, neither of the problems was solved or even improved. So yes, nice gesture but if no results...

Did you end up going to another laser clinic? Any recommendations?

Edit: Anyway just an update on the fractional. Most of the scabs have peeled off and my skin looks better now. Still maintain that small amount of fractional has removed a lot of my physical scars.

On an unrelated note, I also notice that the redness of my skin is more dispersed, rather than very distinct red marks. Don't get me wrong, my skin still looks like ****, but it looks like at least my routine and/or the lasers are doing something.

Hada Labo hydrating milk if you need something heavier, Simple's light moisturiser if you're prone to CCs. I'm using the Simple atm and find it a little too light.

I'm left with a few droplets of the hydrating milk and I'm considering repurchasing it.

Me and my Husband passby East Point Mall yesterday and saw the grand opening for the best beauty centre. I tried their detox facial and my husband got the tcm massage. Both is pretty good. Furthermore it's only $20 each! Super good deal.
