Is fraxel only hope for acne scarring and continued breakouts?

Hi! I thought I'd give a little input. First off, I do NOT think you should go forth and get Fraxel treatment because despite the fact it may have helped people worldwide, it has also ruined MANY faces/bodies worldwide and that is no lie. Think long and hard about whether you want to improve your skin with topical agents that will work or whether you want a burning hot laser sizzling your skin and possibly defacing you.

Nonetheless, I will not preach anymore, it is your decision and I think you should read every single forum on here and online about the bad aspects of Fraxel and then if you do decide to go forth, well atleast you were informed.

This is what I did to help my skin:

1.) When my skin was mild-moderate: (Acne free, which can be bought at Wal-mart. Main ingredient: benzoyl peroxide. NOTE: This works better than ProActiv, which never worked for me, and it is very affordable. Benzoyl Peroxide also never worked for me until I tried this formula, but beware because overuse can cause hyperpigmentation, but you can always treat that later. This is to get rid of acne if you still have outbreaks, if not continue reading.

2.) Clinique three step skin regimine (can be found at any Macy's store or Sephora and possibly Ulta. Isn't just for girls! Does wonders for you skin if used twice a day!)

3.)Collagen lotion *(St. Ives has a good lotion with collagen in it)

4.) Any product with AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) will help)

5.) Mederma Skin CREAM NOT gel!!!!

6.) And, lastly Bio Oil, that wonderful stuff that cured my face!

By the way, I did not mean to post under this question since I'm not a doctor. I am in college currently with over 100 credits, but still I'm not a doctor so my former post was just my opinion :)
