Interesting/funny/annoying story about my 5th session. I went in as usual and got numbed up. Two PAs came in to do my treatment. The usual one and a new one. The new one had some trouble getting t...

I got sebaceous hyperplasia from Intense Pulsed Light (IPL). IPL is not a laser per say, since it is broad spectrum light. But it was so bad I had to go on Accutane to get rid of it. Nanty's experie...

Hi folks It's been 4 or 5 months since my last post. I keep forgetting my password so I have gone from seanski to seanskii to seanskiii. I apologise for not keeping on top of this thread but thought...

Does anyone know if there is a limit to how many fraxels one can receive? The most I've heard of someone getting was 7, I believe. Hi mellow yellow, I've had 8 Fraxels and 2 Palomars since January...

Hello, everyone. This is an update and I apologize in advance for the length. On April 2, I think that will be 4 months since my fifth and final fraxel 2 treatment. (I'm sorry that I don't have all...

CM77 do you think your scars have actually filled in or have they blended in with the rest of the skin as your texture imrpoved. In my case i would say i got around 25% improvement, but when i see the...

In September, my doctor did the same thing to me. I thought I was getting my 2nd round of Fraxel with him, but he had changed to the Palomar and didn't tell me about it. I went through 2 treatments ...

I've had 2 Fraxels so far and am scheduled for number three this Thursday. I got my first compliment today on my skin. I haven't told anyone that I know that I'm having Fraxel done. I wanted to see if...

I had my first Fraxel treatment today. Or at least I thought I did. Cause after looking up what was written on the side of the machine (which is Palomar LUX1540 Fractional) I'm not so sure anymore. No...

Hi Fraxelers, I found out today that I have shingles. My doctor says I should wait 2 weeks before getting another Fraxel. I was supposed to go this week. At least I'm grateful I didn't get it on my...

Chrissy, I agree with your assessment that fraxel 2 results seem disappointing based on posts on this board, so I temper my excitement with that knowledge. I mentioned to her that few posters are rep...

Cubs, What doctor are you now seeing? Thanks I'm seeing Dr. Evan Manolis in Orland Park, Illinois.

Congrats Cubs on success an perseverance. Your signature implies 8 fraxels, but your post says 10 - curious as to right #. I have not been lucky enough to see scars disappear but I do see sublte sof...

Cubsfan, I am so happy to hear that you are doing well. It motivates me to keep pushing forward with my treatments and you provide the encouragement, via your experience that these will work, albei...

It has been two weeks since my Fraxel, and I have a bit of good news to report. I have a scar that has disappeared, and two more that look like they'll be gone after one more treatment. It has taken...

It's been a month and a couple days since my sixth Fraxel treatment. I want to get temp fillers first and then perm should I react well to the temp fillers. My question is, did people who've had Fra...

I am 12 days past my third Fraxel treatment and 2nd subcision. Last time I saw my doctor he thought I had a significant improvement. I can see some improvement, but not as much as my doctor seemed t...

Hello everyone! I had my first Fraxel 2 days ago. From reading all of the post on here I knew I would have some swelling and redness but I didn't think it would be this bad! My face is still so swoll...

Hi fellow Fraxelers, I had my 2nd treatment done on Monday. It was done at 125, 4.17KJs, and 20 mjs. I have quite a bit of pin point bleeding on my forehead and temples. The swelling isn't as bad a...

#1cubsfan, Did you find that your first series of Fraxels gave you a significant improvement? What would you say your percentage of improvement was after the first series? Thanks so much! Annde ...

I was a bit down because I was seeing my scars coming back. Even though on an intellectual level I knew it was unlikely that my skin would improve so fast, it was hard not to fall into the seduction...

Hello everyone~ I thought I would post an update on this thread. Yesterday was my 3rd Fraxel/2nd Subcision. The staff at the office said they could see improvement when I came in yesterday- it had ...
