Worth It
Spent: $4,500 in Georgia

Had fraxel repair for lines, skin texture,some acne scarring, and tightening effects. I was especially hoping to have the smoker's lines around my upper lip improved and upper eyelids to tighten.

I am not sure yet if I will get what I hoped for in respect to the lip and eyelids. I am anxious for the total results.

If I am still seeing some lines around my upper lip does it mean that they will probably not go away with the fraxel repair or do I need to wait longer to see? Will my eyelids tighten more as time progresses?

Booklady, how well satisfied with the results as far as smoothing out your acne scarring? I live in Ga too, already had 3 re-stores, over 8months ago, skin appeared to look more scarred then it did prior to the re-store, recently had the re-pair done on forehead only, hoping for better results and trying to decide on whether I want to continue with the re-pair for rest of my face or go with collagen injections?

My acne scarring is not that bad, but it helped. I will say that now five months out, I don't think my results are as good as I had hoped. I am disappointed. I think I thought things were better in the beginning because the swelling made it all smoother. Good luck

You're so right, when you're swollen, everything looks smoothed out. I'm about to head for a post-op appt. now, will decide if I want the re-pair done on the rest of my face or a few more re-stores or just keep the money in my pocket!?
