The re:pDoes Fraxel laser treatment tighten skin?

That is really what I was looking for when I started the Restore treatments. The only thing I found short of surgery that would help with lax skin was Thermage and even the doctor that had Thermage didn't seem very impressed with it, so I chose Fraxel Restore.

The re:pair does tighten skin. If you have large jowls, you'll note slight improvement, small jowls can be improved. There are very few (last count about 30-35) re:pairs in the country. The easiest way to find a doc is to call Fraxel 1-888-4Fraxel. Their webisite has a very poor search function (only allows for 25 mile radius from a zip code). I just finished treating a Texan in my office today. C'mon over.

In my opinion, 1 re:pair treatment will give more wrinkle control than 4 of the re:store treatments. Dr P has the re:store and the re:pair, I await his opinion as well.
