Not Worth It
Spent: $3,000 in Newport Beach, CA
hello,on aug 10 i had fraxel repair.it is aug 16th. severe peeling /edema/redness/pain.nothing has improved save my skin has stopped peeling. some edema gone.
i had it done for sunspots/redspots/finelines. i was told by my plastic surgeon all these will be GONE for very fine. all are still there. my face looks same other than fresher. all lines,etc still there.
i know with the restore it takes time but was told with the repair once healed,about 7 days no lines/spots etc. please can you shed some information? i still cannot sit in a bright room made light by artificial light! i sit in semi dark. all burns so badly still. had face/neck don. thankyou so muchThis review is the subjective opinion of a RealSelf member and not of RealSelf, Inc.
My Doctor: Name not provided
i'm not yet sure if worth it. i was told with repair result for my concerns be immediate and no improvement. unless delayed, i am not happy with it. very concerned with damage from it though.
