Diagnosis-5 sessions. After my 4th session I noticed a brown spot around my cheek. I asked about this and was told to use eye cream. Had my 5th session which truly damaged my skin. My skin below my eye above cheek bone looks burn/dehydrated.Dark brown spots-looks horrid. Whatcan I do?I hate my face.
I saw the today show about Fraxel re:pair treatment. Is this the same thing I read on realself about fraxel laser experiences? thnks!
Are the results progressive with Fraxel Re:Pair. I know that they say that with the Fraxel Re:Store that results continue to get better as the months pass after the procedures. I am wondering if the Re:Pair results get better as well with time. Thanks
Normal for acne breakouts to occur after Fraxel?
Anyone willing to share whether their fraxel experience was painful? worried it will rival my laser skin resurfacing experience (white hot pain!)
What's recovery like from fraxel laser treatment?
Has Fraxel re:pair been used on Becker's Nevus yet. I know in that other lasers in the past have not been very successful as it usually returns after a while. Is this type of treatment something I should pursue for my Becker's Nevus or do you recommend that I wait.

I had co2 fraxel laser 5 days ago and am bright red. I believe I have peeled all the skin off, but now I notice my skin is not porus and is rough. Will it soften over time? How long do these side effects last?
Does this strange pin prick/orange peel texture ever fade? I am 15 months out from 3 very, very aggressive treatments. Some of the holes form together to make lines. Are these microscars, pores or laser pattern? I am beginning to think that I am stuck with this texture!!
I had three fraxel treatments done starting february, march, and april - all went well - but last month i noticed spots on the sides of my cheeks - now i am reading about pigmentation which was never mentioned by my doctor - is this a common side effect and do these spots usually go away or they for ever? They were never there before fraxel. What could cause this?
I'm thinking about getting Fraxel done for acne scars on my cheeks. My dermatologist recommended it, and it looks like as long as I take several precautions, the results should outweigh the pain/discomfort. However, I'm nervous about the downtime. I am a high school teacher, so it's impossible for me to just hide in a cubicle or take a week off to recover from the procedure. I'm also...
Anyone with itchy skin after fraxel?
A number of community members have asked for common place to have a discussion about fraxel experiences, beyond the fraxel reviews and fraxel repair reviews reviews. Please share your opinions.
I'm 4 weeks past Fraxel Repair and I can still see micro dots and laser "tracks" on my face. Will this go away? What can I do to fix it? My makeup sinks into these spots/tracks and looks terrible!
I had fraxel on the 14th March so I'm 10 days post treatment. I still have a bad break out, and tiny dots all over my face with lumps.I have tiny indents, like micro scars on my forehead and all over my face, has anyone else experienced this as normal?I was told its normal, I also had the lady doing it tell me to use a product the next day which was very strong, when I went back to speak about...

Is 12 passes to many? most comments i have seen here only have 4 passes
I am on day 11 of fraxel re pair. I have flown to Los Angles to see a leading dermatologist with one of the 2 machines here. My smile became non existent on Monday. Like a thin line, no lips, like a freak show. There is no movement in my cheeks, it is hard to eat properly. On Tuesday the Dr. told me it was just the edema fluid and that it would go away but it seems to be getting tighter and...
