I have had horrible cystic acne from a very young age. I’m 32 and I still break out on occasion. It doesn’t help that I pick at it either, but the scars are awful. I’ve always been self conscious about my face. I decided to go and do something about it when I decided I wanted a breast lift/aug. Some light shows more of the depth of these rolling scar better than others. It has been 24 hours since my surgery and I look like Freddy Krueger.

So painful. Getting up in the middle of the night to reapply aquafore because it feels like my face is going to crack open. At least it’s distracting me from the pain of my breast augmentation.

Thanks so much for posting your going to look amazing. Please keep us updated as you move along in your recuperation. How long did the Dr. say it would take to completely heal. I to am interested in this procedure but am concerned about skin discoloration demarcation(chin to neck line) since I am olive complexion.
Good Luck

I just went in for my first post op. So in saying that it fraxel is an understatement. He did a total face resurfacing which included some fraxel, but us much more invasive. The necrotic crud will start to come off and I’ll have just hot pink, new skin. I’m not supposed to be in direct sunlight for AT LEAST two weeks. After that, at least SPF40 for protection. It is hard to see in my before photos, but I have some very deep, rolling scars. Dr. Jain has really given the best guidance for reasonable results with this procedure. As far as discoloration, yes, my face will be lighter than the rest of my body. He stopped at the jawline. But hey, nothing some bronzer can’t fix. I will go in for some more treatments eventually, but at a much milder level. While I’m in pain now, I cannot wait to see some improvement. This is not a one and done procedure. I’ll check back in tomorrow with how it’s going day 4.

Hi my name is Annie and i live in Australia and a few days ago i had the Fraxel C02 laser procedure . My skin was no were near as red and swollen as yours it’s day 4 and I have no more redness my face is just a bit flaky and dry.. In the states when you have this procedure done do they put you under are you asleep as over here a numbing cream is applied to your face for one hour before procedure starts . I just can’t believe how evasive and sore your skin looks and was interested to know how you dealt with the pain if they did it under aesthetic. Also over here our aftercare is very different we can’t get our face wet for 24 hours it has to be dry then after we can only clean our skin with sterile water a saline solution and then only using QV cream I noticed a lot of places say to use ice packs but they told me not to get my face wet at all ..Hope your face is ok now regards Annilee
