I have younger children and am an older mom. I am fit and healthy. I eat well and make sure I take care of myself and my family. I live in a community where most moms are much younger. It was a daily concern of mine to not look like our boys mom. I had fine lines and wrinkles that I suppose a filler would have also helped but the fraxel improves all parts of my skin including fine lines around my mouth. And yesterday, someone said, "Are you and your son out school clothes shopping?" It made my day!

I can relate to your situation! I am an older mom too and worry that one day, I will be mistaken for my kids' grandmother! This happened to my husband when he was a kid - scout master told him it was nice his grandmother could come to whatever event it was. My huband said, "that's not my grandmother, that's my mom!" Ack!

What was the procedure like for you? How long was the downtime?

I can also relate. LOL. Im 40yr & we have have a 5yr old little girl. I have taken up some cosmetic procedures lately. Nothing drastic. Botox, Juviderm, Coolsculpt for chin & now Im looking at Elos at the moment. Do you know if this is like the Fraxel by chance?
I woud love to see your results. They sound great from your review!
Cheers!
