• Posted to Is fraxel only hope for acne scarring and continued breakouts? on 11 Aug 2010

  Fraxel isn't going to stop acne and it takes MANY Fraxel treatments to see a significant difference. I would suggest Accutane, even at a low dose. I am 32 and have battled acne my whole life and tried EVERY treatment out there, including 19 Fraxel treatments and most were at the highest level the laser would go (major waste of money for most of them). I can attest to Accutane being the ONLY treatment that successfully treats the acne itself. It DOES have side effects but if you are healthy, you should have only minor side effects, such as dry skin/lips, etc. Accutane has been a heaven-sent in my life and I highly suggest you try it. Once your acne is under control, then I would look into treating the scars. But you don't want to waste money on treatments when the scars will only come back with more acne. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!
