Cons:
Of course, the price.
Try it once - at least. It's so clear that everyone has different results, so try it for yourself and see if it works for you. I have deep cheek scars and it appears to have put my skin on the right track. For me, it was a matter of - What else is out there that doesnt require a month of downtime?

I had my first fraxel treatment four weeks ago. It didn't hurt. I was swollen for three days. I was red for four days then pink for two. I peeled but not excessively. I went in on a Friday. I was back at work on the Monday. I didn't bother with make up at all and didn't feel self concious about it. I guess it's a little like mild sunburn. My second treatment is tomorrow. I was told improvement would be visable from the 3rd or 4th treatment. then for a further 6 months afterwards. Although of course, you still cannot help but keep an eye on progress even after the first one. I have noticed a subtle change, but no-one else has. Scars are softer but still there, my cheeks have more colour (i'm very fair). I'm not sure what to expect after my second one tomorrow but will post the results when the redness goes down and i can see a true indication.

Pros:
do not know yet
Cons:
the procedure is painful as far as it concerns me.
I had a fraxel laser treatment 2 dayes ago. my face is still red and swelling has subsided about 80 percent.doc said I need atleat 3-4 treatments. I am anxiously waiting to see the results. a pakage of 4 treatments cost me $3200
I will update you about my condition next week.
Pros:
Deep scars. Noticed 10% improvement after only one fraxel treatent. One session treats 20%, so I wasn't expecting miracles. My skin looked healthy for the first time in years after the first. I plan to continue on.
