Dr. Patterson's opinion on YAG treatment
Interesting thread on ESFB on YAG in treating deeper feed vessels.
Worth reading in full.
Quotes:
''I see the real side of these treatments, ie I actually do them. I have just seen a client who was treated elswhere in the UK with a Yag - simply a disaster with a very honeycomb appearance. He is deeply unhappy. Yag is a deep energy and I have yet to see significant numbers of doctors using this technology over diffuse redness which is what you have. It has a role for iscolated veins say on the side of the nose resistant to Ipl. In other words just for spot treatments. If things change I'll let you know''. Dr. P (Dr. Patterson treats multiple rosacea patients each day at his Woodford Medical clinic in Danbury, UK)
