I want to give an update on how my skin looks today. I really thought that it had improved a lot, but it seems that either the micro swelling lasts very long, or the skin reverts back to the way it was somehow... my scars had improved probably 75% until about a couple of weeks ago... today they look exactly the same as before the first fraxel. Sooooo, that's 3,000 dollars for a less than a year of improvement with a lot of pain and a day or two of down time each time. Sad
*and I have brown spots that I've never had before that appeared right after the fourth fraxel and never went away...makeup covers it, but still...

I did 4 Fraxel treatments for $3500 two years ago, and had similar results (meaning none!)

I think it may have also actually caused my hyperpigmentation to get WORSE, sigh.
