hi
i just had my 1st fraxel treatment yesterday for melasma.
it didnt hurt 2 bad. they put numbing stuff on my face and used a cold roller on my face in between and cool air blowing. the only part that really kinda stung was on abouve my lip.
my face felt sunburned for a few hours after that.
but i slept fine. and today my face just looks a lil puffy and kinda reddish. i put some lavender and olive oil on and some makeup over it. it feels fine now unless i sweat, then its a lil stingy.
hopefully this will work, bcuz ive tried everything else.
the only other thing that worked was a blue peel. and it really does hurt. it feels like acid on ur skin, bcuz it is actually acid. but at least the pain doesn't last long. that did lighten my skin but i was stupid and went in the sun after that.
i will post latr about how this fraxel is doing

Hi sheyna,
I have had the fraxel done several times and while the results were good in the beginning, within 2 months my melasma came back. I would suggest that you read posts on the skincare rx forum about fraxel treatments to see what happened to others. There is also a website melacor.net that goes into fraxels as well. I have emailed Melacor directly and found Nancy to be very informative and helpful. You may want to reach out to them....or at least read more about the fraxel treatments before you spend thousands of $. I hope you receive the results you are looking for, but I encourage you to research more before you go for a second treatment. I hope this helps!
