Reviews you can trust, from real people like you.
How it works
- Our highly-trained Review Moderation team evaluates all reviews before they're published to ensure they're written by people like you and not a member of a doctor's office.
- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.
If you have questions or believe we should re-evaluate a published review, let us know.

I had my FIRST TREATMENT SESSION. Here are some information about it:
- I had numbing cream on my cheeks for like 1 hour before starting laser treatment
- It was FRAXEL RE:STORE DUAL
- I believe I had 3 passes on each side
- It wasn't very painful
- Total time was like 10 minutes
After operation:
- I feel burn in my cheeks but not very painful
- I have noticed that pores on my cheeks got little bit enlarged
- I have to put sunscreen on my cheeks every like 5 hours
- I have also to put moisturizing cream (Castalia) on my cheeks 3 times a day
- Swelling, red color, and skin peeling should be expected in the coming days
- I don't want to sound over-excited but I think I have already noticed some improvement in my cheeks :)

I had a simple operation which should be performed before starting the Fraxel laser treatment. The purpose of the operation is to elevate deep acne scars so that they match roughly the surrounding skin, in order for those scars to be better improved using Fraxel laser. Some information about the operation:
- My cheeks were anesthetized first using a needle
- Operation was performed using a special needle used to cut tissues underneath deep acne scar
- Operation took maybe less than 20 minutes (I didn't have many deep acne scars)
- Operation wasn't very painful
After operation:
- There was little temporary bleeding
- Almost no pain in my cheeks
- Little swelling on my cheeks and blue spots should be expected
