  • Posted to Combination Pearl and Pearl Fractional Laser Worked Great! on 12 Feb 2010

    Have bad news for you folks - nearly a year after my procedure, my skin condition is about the same as it was before. My acne scars and under-eye wrinkles may be 10% better than before, but that's it. The "increased collagen production" that was supposed to continue for up to 6 months after the fractional never happened. And if I look closely in the mirror, I can still see the tiny red dots from the fractional laser, they can be covered with make up, but still, that's one more thing. So considering the cost, I no longer feel having this procedure was worth it. Hopefully some of you that have already had the procedure will have a better outcome. Good luck!

    My acne scars were mild to moderate pick scars, not red at all. As it turns out, some of the results I had at the time I posted this was from swelling, so the scars appeared more smooth than they would remain. After six weeks or so, now I would say they are 50% better. Still good results, but don't expect perfection. And to be fair, this is about what my Dr. said I should expect. My Dr. said a second regular pearl would give me even better results. I'm considering it, but I have not had the time or money. Good luck!
