Definately Worth It

At 34 I could begin seeing some fine lines around my forehead & eye area. Dark circles under my eyes, I had a few scars from having the chickenpox 10 years ago & my skin just seemed to be getting problematic ie: larger pores.

I tried the fraxel laser after a consultation. At the time of my first treatment I found it painful, afterward my face & eye area was red & puffy for a 3 days - then the bronzing.

Its now been a month since my first treatment & my skin is much better. I get quite a few compliments on how my skin looks great - people can't actually pin point what it is. My dark circles are less noticible, complextion is clearer, pores have been mimilized. Scars also less noticable & wrinkles are almost gone.

I am due for my 2nd treatment soon & can't wait as the benefits outweigh the pain.

Great review?

Hi, I'm interested as to why you did not recommend your doctor. Did she perform your laser treatment?
