I had Fraxel Repair 4 months ago and it has been a disaster. I'm now suffering from what they call "micro-scarring" which has created a terrible texture on my skin. My acne scars are better, but the microscars that were left behind bother me each time I look in the mirror. My skin is rough and I'm worried this will only get worse as I age.

I have had the same experience. Have you been able to find a solution for this? What are you being told as a remedy?

It's been suggested that I do another round of the Fraxel Repair at very low settings. This really scares me, so I don't know what I will do. What have you been told?

I have been told by Dr. Persky on this site, that fraxel repair at low setting could help. I have not been told that by a dermatologist I have seen seen in person. Have you? Like you, I am so nervous about doing anything and I am so depressed about it.

I am doing vbeam at low settings. It seems to be helping but I might need 6 treatments spaced 4 weeks apart. I still 5 months out have some redness so it is also helping with that. I will let you know how it works out.
