I have seen some significant acne breakouts following CO2 Fraxel Re:pair especially in oily skin or previous significant acne prone patients. This seems to be related to using heavy emollients post treatment. If it feels greasy or heavy going on the skin you probably need to avoid it if you show evidence of breaking out. Some of the lighter skin repair treatments by Obaji, Aveene, Glytone, and SkinCeuticals have stood up well with my post Re:pair patients. Acne breakouts need to be treated as you normally would and my patients have tolerated routine acne care well.
