Fraxel Refine Vs Fraxel Restore for Lip Lines?

July 25, 2009
Asked By:Cowgirl Sue in Walnut Creek, CA

I am 57 and can't decide if Fraxel Re:fine is worth doing or should I just do Fraxel Laser (Re:store). I am particularly interested in minimizing lip lines and smoothing the skin (which looks pretty good for my age given I haven't ever even had a Facial). Thanks.
