Please do yourself a favor and do not do this procedure lol. left w major hyperpigmentation where my skin peeled. I did use sunscreen religiously so that would not be the issue.

Absolutely HATE this procedure. Tired of not wanting to leave the house because of my face. Please whatever you guys do- do not get Fractora done to your face. Hyperpigmentation, more holes, even worse texture. Pathetic. All I went in for was icepick scars.

Slight improvement after ematrix and home face peels. Also I use essential oils at night. Good luck and be patient. Keep me informed.

Hello! Had slight improvement on some of my icepick scars on the nose and some rolling scars on the face so i took the second plunge and had it done last night. However the doctor rwcommended addjng my neck as i have kinda like fat sagging on bottom part of cheek going to my jaw although no issue whatsoever in neck texture as its very smooth. the neck is the one in painful after the procedure and up to this time that its been 18hrs. I will keep unposted of the result when all the redness subsides

Hey! So how many have you done total and would you say it is worth it for any benefits (ice pick scar, rolling scars)?
Did the hyperpigmentation that you didn't have before subside eventually?

Hello Marie, not sure if i was the one you were asking bit indisnt have hyperpigmentation before and after the procedure. My icepick and rolling scars are not tatally eliminated but have obviously softened in appearance. I am done and will not do the 3rd one as the pain was truly unbearable. Im on my 2nd week after the 2nd procedure so im expecting my skin to generate collagen in the next months.

Feel like Fractora has ruined my skin. Literally don’t want to leave the house as I have all these new holes in my face.

I feel the same way. I wish there were side effects posted before I had my treatment.

I got Fractora done 5 days ago. It has done absolutely nothing for my skin but made it peel & now I’m having to wait for my skin to heal. I feel like it’s created more scars. The overall procedure wasn’t that painful and it was quick. I just wouldn’t do this again. I originally went in for texture problems & ice pick scarring. My face is still swollen. I’m only 5 days post op so will keep you updated but for now I don’t feel like this was worth the $$$

It seems you have either not absorbed all the information given to you about the procedure or it was not explained in full. This, like many procedures aims to trigger remodelling of the skin through injury of the skin (putting it very simply as actually Fractora does many different things within differing layers of the skin and just below). This process does not take 5 days! It takes many months to complete! So in your acute injury phase (thus your face is still swollen) you are making judgements on the outcome. Please contact your clinic and get it explained again.
