“Questions Regarding Delayed Side Effect”
Shan from LA
Worth It
Spent: $2,500 in Fairhope, Alabama
Spent: $2,500 in Fairhope, Alabama
I initiated fraxel in order to remove some acne scars on my cheeks. It did not work as well as I hoped, but it definitely removed fine lines and tightened my skin tone. I also NEEDED that little stress ball they give you even after letting the numbing cream stay on my face for an hour before treatment.
I had Fraxel Laser treatments, my last was almost a year ago. I began noticing brown patches on my cheeks and forehead about 3 or 4 months ago. There is also a small one on my nose. Is it possible that the side effects of Fraxel may take a few months to appear?
I also started using a new moisturizer a couple of months before I noticed the brown patches. It is a bio cosmetic from Dr. Spiller, made in Germany. Could a cosmetic conceivably contribute to or cause the pigmentation? I have ordered Obagi to resolve the issue, but I am curious as to whether the Fraxel or my moisturizer caused it.
I also use Skin-medica SPF 30 sunblock religiously on my face as was recommended by my doctor, and I am fair skinned. I do have Native American in my background, but only slight. Thank you for any advice in advance.

My rating:
My provider is also my cosmetic surgeon. Not only my doctor, but his entire staff was very professional and kind. My questions were always answered in full, and I was seen when I had problems without question. I thoroughly researched my physician prior to seeing him, and many of my friends were his patients as well. I did not find anyone dissatisfied with him or his office.
