I recommend my Fraxel Laser provider: Sign in or join to view provider name
Why: Everyone in the office is very professional and makes you feel very comfortable. I never felt pressured to make a decision about the procedure. I asked a ton of questions and never felt like I was bothering them.
I am african american and I have had fraxel on my thighs and buttocks and love the results. I have had 2 out of a recommended 6 treatments and I am very happy. There is already a noticeable difference. They obviously won't be completely gone but they will be much lighter. Like anything it depends on your skin and your doctor.
So far I haven't had any problems besides the itching and peeling skin afterwards. You are also left with little brown dots but they fade over a couple weeks.

Hi my name is Leslie, I'm also African American and would like treatment for my stretchmarks. I was very worried because I didn't think it would work on our skin type, how many treatments have you had?
