It feels like a good sunburn for the first few days, says Dr. Cook. Expect the redness in your face to last a matter of weeks to a few months depending on how aggressive the treatment is. Dr. Cook warns people that excessive sun damage typically happens in the first 18 years of life. He subscribes to an Australian school plan that mandates school children come to school with a hat and sunscreen on their skin. Most people are very happy with results of the treatment.
People report they feel better about themselves and are more energetic after the treatment.
Some 60,000 MediCal recipients in Tulare County are being enrolled in one of two health plans offered to local recipients. Enrollees can choose either Blue Cross or Health Net as their health plan to continue to receive MediCal benefits. People can choose their health plan and see on the list of providers if their local physician or clinic will offer service through the plan. Of the 60,000 enrollees in the county, Blue Cross is expected to gain about two thirds of the enrollees and Health Net will cover the remainder. Already Blue Cross has around 33,000 - many mothers with children.
