How many months does it take to see great results after 3 fraxel 5500 treatments?

p1mples
I'm 53 yrs old and 1 week ago I had my 2nd of 3 treatments on my face and neck. Both treatments left me with some pimples on top & underneath the surface of my skin on my face. My skin is itchy as well. My doctor said she was being aggressive with my treatment to help with lines under my eyes, large pores, evening of skin color and for overall toning of my skin. Also, the skin on my neck seems to be more crepey then before my treatments. Are these issues typical? Thank you
