Skin Care Review: Fraxel Laser for acne scars

Rating
Good

Benefits
Smoother skin, reduced appearance of acne scars and pock marks.

Drawbacks
The treatment was very painful. Had to do a series of 5.

Details
This was a very painful series of 5 treatments. Even with vicodin and knumbing cream, it still felt like someone was tattooing every square inch of my face. After the swelling went down, my skin did look better and much more smooth. It took about a day or two of recovery after each procedure, but I could go back to work the same day if I wanted. I still have noticeable acne scars. There is no magic trick to ridding myself of these. Still, I can't say that I regret going through the procedures because they did help, I just wish they were gone completely!

Conclusions
I would recommend it to someone with realistic expectations.
