Hi everyone!

I got Fraxel Dual on Friday, at about 5pm. It is currently Sunday morning and I have no black dots (like other people have online), my face is just very red and bumpy feeling. Additionally, since yesterday, I have little white bumps (not entirely sure if they're blackheads or not) all over my chin and above my lip.

Additionally, my acne scars look extremely worse than they did prior to treatment. Before Fraxel I did 2 vascular lasers that helped a ton, but I had little downtime. I was just wondering if anyone else had blisters/white bumps anywhere on their skin after Fraxel?

I am getting so worried; I know with Fraxel it takes 3 months to see full results but I'm just hoping these bumps/whiteheads/whatever they are don't cause more scarring. I would love to call the dermatologist but, it's Sunday so I have to wait until tomorrow.

It may also be helpful to note that my acne scars are all related to hyperpigmentation. Also, I've only used gentle cleansers and lotins since getting Fraxel. Please let me know if anyone was in a similar boat.

Thanks all

Did you get a chance to call your derm yesterday? What did he/she say?
