Hi guys, Just finished my fourth fraxel. 4th treatment was - 25mJ x 6 passes x 125 mhz = 18750 and 30mj x 8 passes x 125 mhz = 30000 Total energy = 48750 = 4.9kJ (approx) total energy to face ...

Do you guys have any links to information about this new tip? I can't find anything on my google search. Is the new tip made by Reliant? Or is it made by another manufacturer to be compliant with t...

I'm fair skinned so my face looked like a tomato for at least 2 days and and then faded over the next few days from dark pink to pink to light pink.......Within one week, I was back to my normal color...

Lucy That 6 years is bad news to me; hope it is wrong. I have worried about this, because once I get healed, I want to return to my many sun/outdoor activities and have been worried that the extra s...

It's even more expensive in cities where there aren't a lot of practitioners who do it.   I live in the Portland, OR area and the place I go costs $950 for each treatment, but $900 per treatment ...

Susan1967 My settings last time were 25 mj x 125 desnity x 8 passes per CM sqaured (yes, millijoule). I think the confusion as to your setting of 4 KJ has to do with total energy vs energy per CM sq...

Again, I'm honestly at a loss as to how all you guys do energy settings of 20MJ and above. Mine was set at 4MJ and was as about as intense as I'd want it. And I'm pretty tough -- I have a pretty high ...

I had my second fraxel treatment today.   I'm honestly at a loss as to how all you guys do energy settings of 20MJ and above. Mine was set at 4MJ and was as about as intense as I'd want it. And...

I just had my first session of Fraxel and the blue dye won't come off. Any ideas how to take the dye of faster? Soak a soft handtowel in ice cold water, wring it out and put it on your face. Afte...

So I wanted to ask everyone....... the day after my last treatment, my allergies started acting up. I didn't want to take anything because I didn't want any complications with the healing. Two day's l...

Bottom line: your not being exposed to blood born pathogens. Unless the doctor gets blood on the tip from aids or hepatitis patient, does your face and makes it bleed mixing the blood within a couple...

Well, it's sort of longish story, LOL.   I used to take low dose long term accutane -- just 20mg once a week kept my acne in check most of the time even though I was supposed to take 20mg twice a...

I wonder if having too low of a setting, could have been enough to dry out your skin helping create more breakouts and not exfoliate it. Is your skin more experienced with peels and procedures? Mine i...

One week.   I have been giving it a lot of thought and I'm reluctant to spend $4500 more dollars this year on something that I'm not even sure will help my scarring all that much. (Where I go, i...

I had my first treatment on Tuesday and it hurt a bit more than I had anticipated. Not the actual treatment itself, which was pretty fast, but the burning feeling afterwards. Me too! The treatme...

Maybe your daughter is naturally low in oestrogen Susan, hence her preference for Soya products - could be her body responding to her natural dietry requirements. I am a big believer in our bodies tel...

Well in England its called Bicarbonate of Soda - NOT Baking Soda. So i dont know if that will help finding it in your country. Same thing. Baking Soda is sodium bicarbonate (NaCo3, I thin...

Soy protein is estrogenic, that's a fact. Legumes and beans like soybeans contain antinutrients unless properly cooked and fermented, that's a fact. The way Westerners process soy, like the way bexi d...
