Dudley, I wonder if she was prone to keloiding. Are those keloids? they're definitely hypertrophic scars.

Marinera, I don't exactly know what went wrong in Christines case. The vast majority of caucasions with normal skin, and not taking any drugs for acne should breeze throguh Re:pair with no problems, but Christine was the exception. She said she exercized regular and was in good shape. I just want people to be informed and ignore anecdotal evidence. I have added the Christine Case to the Link O Rama thread.

I had the fraxel repair done in early december and it didn't help me at all. I'd say i got about 10% better. my healing was great, i dont remember what levels my laser was. I have severe boxcar scaring and I don't see really any improvement at all. Maybe Dudley is right and a few treatments would help, but I couldn't do it again the weeping and dripping was too gross for me. I had great healing but I guess I'm one of the few who it couldn't help.

SoundChic, it is with the most difficult cases that Re:pair works the best. Check what level you were treated at before giving up. See if your Dr will crank up the laser and give you a big discount for repeat treatment.
