My Experience With Fraxel . It's worth it! Birmingham, AL
It's been 3 hour from my first session of fraxel,...
It's been 3 hour from my first session of fraxel, the doctor decided to do just the 1927 wave length to get rid of my pigmentations and then have me come back for the 1550 which is for acne scars since I really dont want any thing to aggressive on the first time!
Like the doctors some where in here said, it's better to be under treated than over treated, cause you will risk skin irritation and hyporpigmentation later on.
Like all other review, I have numbing cream on for an hour, then it be wiped off, and the nurse perform the fraxel on me with level 3 coverage which is 30%, and 10 mj and 4 passes.
I don't feel any pain, just a little stinging sensation. When it done the nurse put some aloe Vera cooling gel on top of my sunblock and I'm ready to go!
My face feel really tigh and tingling afterward, and I spray my face with some sun burn protection mist in the car to cool my skin down also added the moisture .
3 hour later my face I looked like a good tan from the beach! Already the fine coffee ground color already resurfaced on the skin. This is mean when all these skin flake off my complexion going to be perfect!! Bye bye pregnancy masks!!!
I'm so exited that I'm finally have the courage to get this laser done after reading all that horror stories about fraxel.
If you decided to do it , my advise is go easy on the energy level, don't go to deep that your skin have to work hard to recover all the damage skin. But do more session instead!
I paid 3,600 for 4 session. I did one session today! 3 more to go about 6 weeks apart!
I try to upload photo directly from my phone but don't know how! Sorry!

The night after fraxel, my chin started to bleed...
The next day, my skin feel like fine sand paper, a lot of dark ground coffee color on the surface. No peeling yet, no swelling or any thing, and when i wash my face its does not sting or feel sensitive any more.

Thank you for your review. I am happy that this is working out so well for you.
Today is 5 days after my first fraxel. My skin...
From some reviews that posted on here, some are like to use vaseline or aquaphor on their face, but i do not think its a good idea since these product will clog pore and create those typical white head that a lot people was experience after fraxel. and they are very greasy. So i only use Aveeno spf 30 sensitive moisturizer for face and Neutrogena spf 110 for face.
I do sprayed my face immediately after fraxel with a sunburn relief Solarcaine with cool aloe, so its cool down the skin while its has some moisturizing ingredient in there too.
When i got home i wash my face and then put on a layer of Therapeutic after sun relief gel call SUNBURNT , then moisturizer and sun block.
Maybe that why my skin is not red itching, or irritated or have white head.Thanks god...!!!
Now i can't wait to come back and have the 1550 fraxel done on my face to address those acne scars that i hate too much. They look a little shallower with just the 1927 fraxel on my first time though. Good thing i have the before and after pics to look for the difference.
