 PROACTIVE IS MY SECRET SOLUTION. I had a bad breakout from my first Fraxel. This time I went out and bought a 30-day supply of Proactive (cleanser, toner, repairing lotion, refining mask) just to give it a shot. I started using it at the very first sign of the breakout - about 20 hours after the laser. I think if I would have used it before any signs of breakout I wouldn't have had any... Even so the pimples were SO minimal. The Proactive didn't dry out my skin any more than the Fraxel did, it helped keep the redness down and the toner felt soothing and hydrating. It REALLY helped keep the breakout down to about 95% - I BARELY got any pimples - not nearly as severe as I did the first time which lasted about a week. I used the Proactive for 5 days until the urge to break out subsided. I'm a new fan!

I will have to say that it IS worth it now. I took pictures for before and after. I've had one treatment and will have my second next week. The results took a while to happen. In addition, if I hadn't take photos I wouldn't have realized that the lines and pores were greatly minimized.

My skin's texture has improved - not super huge but lots tighter and less pebbly. If you get this done take before and after pictures to see the difference. I also went back to using Rhonda Allison skin products which in the past have made my skin totally glow. They are expensive, but you only use tiny amounts so they last a long time. I am using: - Pumpkin Cleanser (Daily) - Growth Factor Serum (morning and night. its magic, I swear!) 1x per week - alternate between masks: - Beta Refine Mask - Pumpkin Parfait Mask
