“Seeking Advice - Left with Scarring After Fraxel Repair”
Hello, everyone. I'm a 26 y.o. female, about 11 months ago I've had Fraxel Eye Repair done. Actually I was satysfied w/my skin prior to that. The reason I went there is to get rid of a scar on my left upper-lid. Doctor took a look and said that my only option is Fraxel Repair, because my scar is old(5 years) .
Procedure was very painfull, afterwards the area started to bleed, so they put an ice bag on treated area, which felt like somebody was peeling my skin with a grater... Now I'm left with brown spots, scars which look like black holes, bigger eyebags, Scar is still same. The thing i worry is about that my skin under -eyes lost elasticity, it looks like it belongs to someone who is in mid 40's, and i'm only in her 20's!
How can i reverse effects of Fraxel Eye Repair? left with some scarring.What can I do with skin to bring elasticity back?This review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.
Read the two horror story posts. The Doctor selection is critical! Its laser and can really do damage if not in the right hands. Dr Howard Conn, MD in Irvine, CA is fantastic. He is an Opthamologist and Ocular Plastic Surgeon, might be worth a shot if you're in CA. He did my Fraxel with great results. Hope it helps, good luck.
