I had my 1st Fraxel restore for acne scars. Nurse gave me oral painkillers and applied numbing cream. During the treatment she went vertically. The 2nd pass she did horizontally, and it was very painful. In total she did 2 passes, saying that she cranked up the setting on my cheecks. I was swollen. The next day I am fine, my skin is slightly tanned and has a rough texture, but I don't look like I had anything done. I am wondering if my treatment was not as effective as it should have been?
