I have had numerous basil cell, squamous cell, and actinic keratosis removed starting when I was 33 years old. I arrived at the office at 8am and they washed my face with acetone. This wasn't as bad as it sounds but I clue to what I was in for over the next two hours! After cleaning my face, they applied a cream which then had to soak in for two hours. I waited in a nice waiting room where they had snacks, drinks, TV, etc. and watched some Springer to make me feel better about MY life  After two hours of basting, they took me too a room where I underwent the blue light exposure. This "activates" the chemical in the cream which destroys the cancer cells, even the ones you cannot yet see. This is where the "fun" really begins! The assistant tells me I will feel a tingling sensation as they put this big machine with light tubes around my head and fire it up. TINGLING? Within about 30 seconds we were well beyond tingling! Those crazy bitches need to try this thing out for themselves before using it on other people and telling them there will be a "tingling" sensation. For all you cops and criminals on THT, at first it was like getting pepper sprayed. That lasted a few minutes and then it was just plain painful. Like having your face sand blasted with molten hot lava sand? I have pretty fair, sensitive skin so maybe worse for some than other but it really sucked. After 6 minutes they told me I ONLY had another 10 minutes left and I about pooped and cried all at the same time. I thought the tears might actually cool my face somewhat though. After the half way point of 8 minutes the burn became a little more tolerable. When it was done, they washed the area again, applied sunscreen, and sent me home. I have to stay in the house (no sunlight) for 48 hours. My face is very red and looks like I have a bad sunburn. Since I reacted pretty strongly to the treatment, I will probably peel but the areas with cancers will scab over and heal. It should leave no scars. It still burns pretty bad like the worst sunburn I have ever had and I have a pretty good headache going. I will update as things progress....

 The Dr. told me that once there are a whole bunch of them on somebody's face, the only way to do it properly is that light treatment. Otherwise, freeze marks all over for what he can see, and what he can't see (yet) come right through over time. I was planning to work this afternoon, but after seeing those shots, I think I'll drink instead! | |
