Hello, I would like to know what can be done for these types of scars. I've had 4 fraxel dual lasers and they said I should start to see improvement six months after my last one. Now is the time and I'm still not satisfied. I've also had several dermapens done but again, no results. I really would like the deeper scars to be less noticeable. The first picture is my good side which is my right and the second picture is my left side which needs a lot of work. Can someone please help? Thanks.
3 months post 3rd treament of fraxel laser and I haven't seen any result rather Fraxel has left small holes on my skin what to do ? Had consulted an other dermatologist who suggested me to have prp with e fractional . I don't want to ruin my skin .Needs honest advice
Ive been getting Fraxel laser done on a hypertrophic scar & Ive had a total of 6 sessions. First two weeks after each treatment the scar remains flat however by the 4th week it is raised. I use flattening sheets& biocorneum between treatments. Ive spent a total of 1,700$ on laser still no results. Ive been thinking of injections to help flatten it but I do not have much knowledge on this. Im from buffalo NY would be open to meeting recommended doctors/derms & different treatment options.
I had my first Fraxel dual for acne scars 12 days ago. I see the skin is still peeling a bit (especially in the mornings right after I wake up). However, not happy with the results. I see very minimal to no difference to the scars. And, a bit disappointed. :( . I wonder if something went wrong ? I wonder how many sessions does it take. Since the first one wasn't great I got a bit negative. I would be really grateful if i could get some advice / answers from experts here ? Thanks a lot.
I started with an ipl, a PRPand a series of laser genesis & sr rejuvenation laser treatments.I spent 1000s $ on my face for it to not only to have no improvements but to actually look worse than before.I have cleared acne for years now but now I'm stuck with lingering persistent redness which is almost as bad.Every time I get a pimple on my body the redness will stay for months or a year before it fades.Would getting the piqo4 laser or maybe fraxel or any other treatment help?Best options please
I use retin a micro and onexton. Last time I had a fraxel I was on different topicals they told me 3 to 5 days before to stop using them. Although in those five days I got quite oily and ended up getting a few breakouts my question is prior to the treatment am I able to just use a tiny little bit of these topicals to keep the breakouts at bay ? My last fraxel went well otherwise. No results but was a decent treatment.
I've had 4 Fraxel and then 2 Fractional c02 sessions so far. The last Fractional c02 session was a month ago. I have noticed no improvements. I have read that improvements will only start to be seen 3-6 months after the last session. How true is this?
I had Fraxel laser on face and chest 2 days ago and my face is red and sandpapery - like I think it should be. My chest is hardly showing signs of anything being done. Hardly any colour change and just a little bit more rough in some spots. Is this normal - or does it mean it hasn't worked? It hurt way less on my chest as the doctor said they use a lighter strength as the skin is different?
I had a Fraxel Dual treatment & have almost no side effects. I contacted the derm & requested the protocol used: Fraxel restore 1550nm only, energy: 65mj x4passes, depth: 1332u, treatment level: 11, total coverage: 32%, coverage/pass: 52mtz/cm2. From the literature I've read, both modalities are used, 6 - 8 passes standard. My concerns are fine lines,wrinkles, sun damage, collagen loss. I would appreciate a professional view as it was expensive & I worry I wasted my $. TIA :)
