“Fraxel Downtime is Longer Than Anticipated but Happy Thus Far - Shelby Township, MI”
Spent: $400 in Shelby Township, MI
$400 per treatment. Finished my first 5 days ago. The treatment was more painful than I anticipated. It does hurt. It feels like little pin pricks. It's day 5 and I am still extremely red and peeling. I had light acne scaring and some skintone issues because I lived in the tanning salon throughout high school.
I was under the assumption that the recovery time was a day or two. I am on day 5 and can't wear makeup or go out looking "normal." 100s of pin point scabs appeared on day two and they are still "peeling" off. Also, although I took antiviral medicine, I developed a cold sore. I haven't had one in 4 years! HOWEVER, my skintone already looks better and the scaring is less noticable.
Will keep you all updated.

Fraxel will leave you with amazing skin... IF you stay out of the sun. I, however, went tanning, like an idiot and developed uneven patches on my forehead. 1 fraxel treatment will cure this problem. So... overall, fraxel is awesome as long as you stay out of the sun.
