I am 58 with history of adolescent and young adult acne. I have many enlarged hardened sebaceous glands below corners of mouth and on cheek. They are between the wrinkled creases. They aren't raised up much, but they can be felt and are definitely visible under the surface when I stretch the skin over. Would Fraxel make these go away, or will it make them show more so should I have the sebaceous hyperplasia treated first?
The Fraxel repair and restore may make the sebaceous hyperplasia slightly smaller, but I would recommend treating them with a hyfrecator, the smoothbeam laser, or a CO2 laser. These work much better and can be done at the same time as a fraxel resurfacing. Take care, Dr. Groff
