Its a £450 laser that is supposed to help with wrinkles and pigmentation as well as generally brightening up skin. Gets mixed reviews but I know someone who swears by it. I'm 40ish now and need a little help with looking my best and quite fancy, would I be crazy to get one?

I can think of things I'd rather spend £450 on.

And with 28% of reviews on Amazon.com being one star including some pictures of some pretty alarming effects, I think it's a definite don't buy.

Not that it helps with pigmentation, but I bought one of those clarisonic whirry brush things for my face. I use it in the shower every day with cleanser and my skin is smooth and super bright now.

I already have a clarisonic and I like it but really want something with a little more power.

Can't find any pictures on review on amazon. Amazon.com also doesn't seem to have any tria adl reviews at all?

Those marks are just redness from the laser and normal. Also 44% loved it, I know it isn't a sensible buy but I would like to try it. Will see if anyone does a 30 day trial or something.

Also it is like prescription strength retin a, that stuff is the bomb for antiaging but it takes anything from a month to a year for you to get the real benefits. So many women try it including my girlfriends but will not stick out the redness and peeling for more than a week or so, it really is no pain no gain!
