WORTH IT$1,400

Had fraxel duo on face and neck about an hour ago. I decided to try fraxel on face and neck and probably CO2 on the eyes (total fx). I was surprised, pleasantly, that it wasn't too painful and an hour or so later it doesn't feel that bad - mostly sunburnt and tight. There were definitely some "hot" spots during the treatment around the hairline and temples. The main reason for trying this is to get rid of the sun damage and pigmentation issues. Trying the neck to see if it helps with tone or crepe-iness/wrinkling...

The photos show before I left the house and 1 hour after the treatment. I am puffy and sunburnt as expected. And will post more photos as time passes...

Day 1 Skin feels tight and burnt with brown dots (coffee grinds) and very brown/red. Also, pretty swollen. I am using Skin Medica and Aquaphore and ice packs for the face. My neck is not that red which is weird. I'll ask the doctor about this.

Day 2 The swelling has gone down but I still have chipmunk cheeks. The redness and bronze is also diminished. I felt horrible on Day 1 but today I feel fine and back to normal as far as energy levels go. No concerns other than my neck which doesn't seem like it had much of a treatment but I'll check with my doctor. The worst part of the treatment was the shivering which I think was from the cold air but I am also pretty tiny and get cold easily. Took 1 1/2 days to get rid of the chill.
