Second Fraxel repair. Is it safe to have the procedure again or could I have complications due to skin thinning with age?

Asked By:MARY521 in Bergen Cty NJ

I am a 60 year old female who had fraxel repair between 6-7 years ago. The result was excellent. I am looking to get it done again for lines around my mouth and lower cheeks and a couple of age spots. I am of irish descent and very fair skinned with freckiling.
