“My skin looks wonderful”
Laser resurfacing: Worth it
Pain: Mild
Profractional is a laser skin resurfacing treatment. The results are fabulous.
I tried the Microlaser Peel last year and it was painful, but the profractional procedure hurt considerably less. The procedure itself was moderately painful in some spots. I used the numbing cream, but the areas along my chin hurt the most.
The after care was so easy. I was able to wear makeup the next day. I had it done on Friday at 4:30 pm and by Monday, I was ready to go to work.
My skin looks healthy and luminous!! I would so do this again. The doctor says that my skin will continue to look better as the months go by. My skin wasn't bad to begin with, but I wanted to prevent age spots from getting bigger and darker and wrinkles from getting deeper. I am 36. My skin is smoother, with less pores, wrinkle free and I am so happy with it!!! Thanks!!!

Hey there! Do you know what type of Profractional machine, name etc... that was used on you? Does Palomar sound familiar? I've been looking for reviews of people who have had Profractional or Fractional Laser Resurfacing but All I see is people who got Fraxel. I too am in my mid-30's with skin that isn't that bad. Thank you for any help!

I asked is Fraxel is similar to profractional. My doctor said that profractional is less painful that fraxel. Fraxel is the older verson of profractional. The RN in the office I go to has Fraxel done a few years ago. She prefers Profractional. Her skin looks great!
