Fraxel Repair - Florida
I had my face and neck done with the fraxel repair...
I had my face and neck done with the fraxel repair in an effort to reduce wrinkles. The procedure itself was not too bad although I did look I had gone through a meat grinder. Bandages have to be changed every 2 hours for the first 2 days and you must use great care. I was so excited to look in the mirror and not see wrinkles. However, as time passed and the swelling went down, the wrinkles came back. I was SO hoping that I would see some benefit. Two years later, you would never know I had anything done. So, three weeks ago, I had a facelift, neck, and foreheard lift. Erbium Yag laser and SMAS lips. I should have NEVER wasted my money on the Fraxel.

Posted some pics for everyone of my experience with the Fraxel Repair. :( Two years later......NOT GLAD....
Thanks so much for posting all these pictures!! I know a lot of people considering this treatment will find them so helpful!
I forget the # for the setting that the Dr. used but he said he was going very agressive. It was not terribly painful.
What was painful was looking in the mirror two years later and seeing no change at all. I 'm going to post my before and after facelift pics here so you can see the change. The surgery was done in early February and the"after" pic was taken last month.
Now, I'm ready to change my hair color and style and be done with it. I'll post a "final" pic when all is done.
@tatumbelle.........I know how you feel. Did you post any pictures ?
It's always good to hear people's thoughts on a treatment years down the road. I appreciate you taking the time to share that for you, it wasn't worth it.
Looking forward to seeing the pictures of your Fraxel results and would love to have you review your Facelift as well!
