“Fraxel Treatments for Acne Scars Gave Me Marionette Lines”

i too had three fraxel treatments on my neck finishing just above the jawline.after the third treatment I was swollen for five months and very sore and sensitive. I hate it, my skin has sagged and I now have noticable jowls. I went back to the clinic upset, she said it was natural aging - what in 6 months!

Same story for me as BeachGirl. After the third treatment I looked in the mirror driving home from the doctor's office and noticed a line coming from the corner of my mouth on the right side - what I later found out is called a marionette line or fold. After expressing my concern, the doctor's office behaved as if the laser could never have caused this. I hoped that it would go away with the redness and swelling since I just had the treatment, but it didn't. The laser treatment improved my skin and scarring but now I have another problem. And who knows what else will happen with my skin. It's only been about 4 months since my first treatment.
