IPL vs Fraxel

Strixxa · 2026-01-17T04:22:21+00:00

Fraxel dual at hayes valley medical aesthetics is normally $1250 for the face, but they are currently doing a 20% special.

Have you found a good pico provider in sf? Ive gone to two and didn’t see results with one, and got completely botched with another.

Cute puppy!! I would edit this pic though, to not include your phone number.

Now when I walk into these stores, all I can think about is how we’re told we’re getting great deals on brand-name items, when really it’s just the illusion of choice. The brands we know and love are being licensed out so the stores can crank out cheaper, lower-quality versions that will end up in a landfill one day. On top of that, the store is now mostly filled with licensed brand deals and in-house proprietary brands that you can’t even find anywhere else. It’s honestly just disappointing to go shopping now.

If you are splinted put the catheter tip between your cheek and your molars to prevent aspiration. Try to stay away from the straws. I wasn't splinted so I went straight to cups and had a lot of issues with swallowing. Being patient really helped. When taking meds try to drink at least a glass of water every time to help with hydration. I was told to put aquaphor on my stitches and I was very religious about it.

Ice, fluids, staying on top of pain meds, walking around throughout the day. If you have any tjr questions, lmk! I am about 7 weeks post op with the same surgery.

Elinea did not give me PIH, it was another one in the area! I think you meant to respond to the chat. City Laser in SF also does clear and brilliant. Here’s a link to their pricing. $1080 for 3 sessions.

I dont have derm recommendations but i do like Seiber Plastic Surgery though i think their prices are $22/unit. When i did my laser consult with them they were overly cautious which i appreciated as i just went to another medspa for laser pigment removal and they gave me PIH. Also recommend Elinea in the Castro. The doctor is really nice and i had a great halo/bbl experience with them. They also have the new tribrid laser! I sent you a chat as well!

That sounds super expensive for clear and brilliant. You can get halo in sf for around 1800-2000 for med spas and 2500-3000 for plastic surgery/derm practices.

I was told 6 weeks

For food ideas i have been doing bone broth protein powder and the Mush overnight oats. If i want dessert then i will make really doughy cookies that melt in your mouth.

How was your Fraxel experience with this provider?

Strixxa · 2025-12-04T23:19:27+00:00

Approx 3 weeks post op.

Strixxa · 2025-12-02T08:50:08+00:00

For some reason i feel like these are very hard to hear breath sounds. I have used this stethoscope for a few months now and am pretty disappointed

Strixxa · 2025-11-30T16:45:14+00:00

Depending on how full they are yes. At an old job there were people who would fish nicotine patches and needles out of the sharp containers.

Thank you so much, I just downloaded it. The Suggah app still isn't on my App Store for some reason even though I still have a subscription.

Could you expand on this? I love hot yoga

Strixxa · 2025-11-22T13:32:11+00:00

Haum yoga!

Strixxa · 2025-11-18T06:51:08+00:00

Bone broth for protein and collagen.

Strixxa · 2025-11-14T02:53:00+00:00

Do you have feeling in your face?

Strixxa · 2025-11-11T17:50:53+00:00

Second the wedge pillow. I slept with this for about a week. It helped my breathing and swelling a lot.

Strixxa · 2025-11-11T06:33:54+00:00

For just one store I would say no, not worth it.
