Are these claims consistent with your experience? Have any of your patients come to you with such outcomes down the line? Many people say at first, their skin looks good but then after some time, they realize that the Fraxel has destroyed other barriers and caused other damages to the underlying tissues and fat. Many many people say their skin and face sagged due to fat loss, their pores became worse and many other complaints. Are there dangers here that aren't being recognized or spoken about?

Your Specialist can recommend skin care, including vitamin A creams, AHAs etc...If you have sensitive skin, a test patch is recommended. Be guided by them as everyone has different skin sensitivitises and texture. The Fiori Institute.
I would speak to your treating physician. Injection of lidocaine should provide better pain control than topical. You can always try topical to see how you do with it. We normally use topically numbing for fraxel restore and leave it on for an hour. Good luck with your continued treatment.
If you are ever concerned please always speak to your provider so they are aware and can guide you through the healing process. It can take 3-5 days for most people to recovery from fraxel dual. It also depends based on how sensitive the patients skin is and the aggressiveness of the treatment....
