He is probably feeling so confident and not worrying about his scars anymore. I used to post quite often and havn't in ages. I don't know why.   Please the "soon to be 30 year old", don't be so...

Is the Fraxel "Restore", the same as Fraxel 2?? They recently got Fraxel in my area. I was looking for a relative and accidently typed in my zipcode and found they now have 2 places here which offer F...

Okay, I'll answer since I think I can give you a bit of constructive opinions without being harsh.   I think you have good bone structure and nice big eyes which no one can buy... ok maybe big b...

Your skin is really looking lots better. I am so glad it seems you have this under control. Are you still washing those pillowcases?? I think I suggested that and really believe it helps. I would sugg...

I actually went in for a consultation once but chickened out. I didn't want to go into so much debt for one and was afraid I would look weird. I still might do it one day.   One thing I like abou...

While there are no Fraxel providers in my area, I have been following this thread for a while off and on. I do remember the girl from Miami posting pics and a few others. Florida guy?? I think many ti...

I don't see why so many are being so critical since he spent so much time doing his post. I do think there are several good tips here. While I tried the vegetarian route a few times, I just couldn't d...

Hi and thanks for your suggestion. I had considered getting a hotel for the night. Driving up in the morning, getting a hotel that night and driving back the next morning. My scarring, except for one ...

Well, I would have had it but I live in West Texas and the closest Fraxel is in Amarillo, around 120 miles away. I keep thinking a Dr. around here will get one and I will be one of the first here to j...

Would it be possible or fairly comfortable to drive two hours, have fraxel, then drive home??? The nearest Dr. who has the fraxel is located around 120 miles from where I live. I would really like to ...

I had a consult with a plastic surgeon last week. I had planned on doing a deeper Er-Yag resurfacing on a few areas of my face. He does not do dermabrasion. I don't think anyone in this town does. Ok,...

I too have a form of the "grooves". They are more pigment grooves but there nonetheless. Wasting days... I had good improvement on shallow scars but I didn't have alot. More like sun damage, a few sha...

I think he is just trying to warn others of the possible risks involved, especially to olive skin tones. I had a dermabrasion, not with dr y and not the full face. Just the majority of my cheeks. They...

I too had a dermabrasion around 13-14 years ago. I mainly had one deep icepick which concerned me. The plastic surgeon suggestion two cheek areas for sun damage and a few shallow scars. Close to being...

Had to change my name since the other one seemed odd.

Well, I had my cheeks dermabraded by a PS around 13-14 years ago. I had just one deep but smaller icepick on my cheek. I really don't know how old the other scars are but when my face was first derma...

Hi, I don't think the tca I ordered was truely 100% since I didn't get any redness with the cross or frosting. It may be closer to a 25-45%. I may try it for a spot peel. When I accidently picked up t...

Well, after using a pretty potent 15% tca and layering for spot peels, I took the plunge and ordered some supposed 100% strength to do cross. I planned on first diluting to 50% then working up to a hi...

It wasnt that easy but hey I figured it out.

Think I've seen it a JC penneys a while back.
