“Fraxel treatments for acne scars gave me marionette lines”

Review of Fraxel Laser:Cost: $1,200

Fraxel Laser satisfaction: Fair
I recommend my Fraxel Laser provider:
I had three fraxel treatments for acne scars. The chin and cheek areas were treated.
The first two treatments went well. After the third treatment, I looked in the mirrow and thought my mouth was sagging. I now have marionette lines.
I would not have done these fraxel treatments if I had know the results. I was promised a 60% improvement to my skin and now I hate the lines. The skin texture is improved but the new lines override the improvement.

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!
