“Dont Get Fraxel Repair... - Minnesota”
Spent: $350 in Minnesota
Posted 22 Nov 2010
Im 23 I received the profraxelional which is basically the same name for fraxel repair... I wanted to fix two pot marks left from acne and the dermatologist recommended the fraxel. I only did a small patch on my cheek but wish i would have just left it alone. It may have helped one of the scars but revealed other indentations, id rather have the two marks then what i have now. I went in 3 months after i had the procedure because wasnt happy with the "track marks" it left behind and had a micro laser peel to help speed the healing process. I think it helped, my skin looked great after for like 2-3 weeks but it didnt last, it was only because it was still swollen. Its been a year now my skin in that area looks aged lifeless and still has the little holes along with uneven skin tone. A real miracle worker is bare essentials make up, unfortunately it comes off...

that laser shouldn't have been recommended for me...
Hi New York,
Welcome to the community and thank you for the review. I'm sorry to hear what happened to you, it sounds like the laser was a bit to high. Have you gone and seen another doctor about this? Please keep us updated on how you are doing.
Thanks,
-Britt
