I have had this problem since about the day I turned 30, so I wouldn't count on this 'procedure' to straighted out the problem...I think it just comes with age itself. I, personally have very sensitive skin and cannot use any chemicals...I opt for the "Personal Touch" which is like a slim-line shaver...yes, you have to do it more often, but I don't look like someone punched me in the mouth from redness.
