Hard to gauge how much improvement you got from those two fraxels since the before pic is also before 4 excisions. I have't had two fraxels, but I can still see improvement in your pictures! Looks ...

The new Fraxel sound much better than the old Fraxel. Does energy level 40 means the same with the old fraxel? That is real high sounds more promising. I want to be able to go that high as well. I...

just thought i'd post a little update (13 days after fraxel #2) i think there's definitely an improvement in texture particularly in the shallow scares which seem less obvious and if you look really...

Isn't Obagi a peel? How can you do that so soon after a Fraxel?? Did Kovak say "Fraxel" or "Fractional Resurfacing"? (The first is trademarked but the latter is a term like "photothermolysis" which...

is it alright that the aloe vera burns on skin when it is applied?     Update: It has been 11 days. Skin is still red. I've been on and off with Obagi. Have not seen much improvement i...

My large chicken pox scar has been filling in some. The scar is still there though. I'm hoping it will be removed from Fraxel. I've been using 100% Aloe Vera as well.

I've only read up to 60 pages on this forum. It is simply too long. I've also done research and readings. I still like to keep updates on here whenever I see changes on my skin though. It might b...

2nd day of 1st fraxel. :wall: :doh: sighz, u know what i learned, i woke up today broked out wit a lot of white heads over my chin and other areas, its not a severe break out cuz its like tiny litt...

mz43026, for sure i will keep you updated and everyone else on the thread. i remember reading that you were treated at 15 mjs at 8 passes, then they jumped it to 18 mjs for 4 passes? how was it at 18...

hello my fellow fraxeling homies, i just woke up from a long needed sleep, last night, i couldn't even sleep, i stayed awake all night til morning, i laid there from 1 to 7 am and decided that i c...

i think it's because you're taking off the superficial epidermis so it temporarily reveals the scar that's deeper until the skin regenerates my post-fraxel skin goes something like swollen for 5 days...

Hey guys, is fraxel suppose to make scars look worse before it gets better? I noticed my scars are more noticeable. I even tried applying makeup. It looks much worse than before. I don't think I'm...

I have 5 excision done. Now I look at it, only 3 of them turned out alright. The chicken pox scar is still indented and same size but it is longer instead of round looking. One of the scar didn't c...

I agree. I'm not mean to people unless they are with me. Its just I changed alot from having acne scars. I use to be very mean and I didn't listen to anyone. I guess I deserve to know how it feels...

My dry skin finally came off this morning. I honestly don't see any improvements right now. Things look the same. I'm hoping to see some changes on the 2nd treatment. Most of my scars are quite sh...

sword, I am glad you are rising above the shallow people and pushing past the obstacles you have had. MZ, I understand how you are feeling especially with the comment your sister made, I actually...

I am 22 years old. Yes, I am loosing confidence due to acne scarring. mz, Is that your picture in your avator? You look extremely cute. I should stop my urge to give you suggestions and expe...

I am so ashamed. It appears I have been duped. Someone that I referred to Dr Kovak PM'd me and told me they believe he isn't using the new Fraxel, as I thought, and is using the Palomar Lux 1540 lase...

I don't know what is the lowest. 10 would be lower than 30.

mz, Some (too many!!) people are so critical of other's appearance, their words cut you like a knife and they really don't care. I have been there many times before. Although I complain about peop...

kaa, fraxel is a form of erbium but more advanced and less invasive but more effective, for it is newer technology. mz43020, may i ask how old you are and why you think 18 is not a high enough...

Today is the fourth day after Fraxel. I can say that yesterday, my skin looked so good. I thought it was permanent until today. Everything is back to normal. I can see all of the scars again. I d...

tricia: I think at least with scars and redmarks, you know there are treatments available. With dermaraction line, it is more rare. I remember posting photos on here where my skin is extremely red ...
