I was told that the profractional laser treatment would smooth out the skin on my chin which was bumpy and wrinkly due to radiation from having head and neck cancer. I have had two treatments and I do not see any improvement in my face. I cannot believe that since I went through cancer, tey were still only concerned with making money. I feel as though I was conned. I still have to pay for something that did not work. Maybe time for a lawyer.
I not only did not get any improvement, I know...

I've been receiving 5FU injections in chest keloids to reduce the height and that has been effective. This procedure is through a different clinic and they offer fraxel laser but I've heard that that isn't as effective in treating scarring. There is place called southcoast med spa that has youtube vids of there profractional laser and the results which seem very good. After seeing this I researched and found premier plastic surgery pa. They told me that I'm a perfect candidate (how convenient) and the profac treatment + microdermabrasion would do wonders for my cheeks and chest keloids. I'm a bit skeptical since they reviews on this site are less than good and the cost is very high ($3200 for 3 treatments)
Should I go through with it? Are there other effective treatments? It seems others like the CO2 laser.
Hi steeley,
Welcome to the Profactional Laser community. As community members mention all the time and since you are skeptical you might want to consider doing a great deal more research, get a number of doctor recommendations and find someone you truly feel comfortable with and you fully trust. Let us know what you decide.

Hi Ardis,
Thanks for the review. Did you peel at all? That's not fun what you are dealing with especially after having cancer, I'm so sorry. Have you seen another dermatologist? Please keep us updated.
Thanks,
