Hi Michelle! Thank you so much for sharing your Fraxel experience and recovery with all of us! My experience was much milder, but now I am considering getting another session as those pesky signs of ageing are starting to creep in. Your skin has always looked gorgeous, but at the end of the video, you can see how this treatment has changed how you feel, and you are glowing!!!! I can’t wait to see your future results!
I still do this treatment but difference with my aftercare is that i do not put any skincare products EXCEPT for sunscreen for atleast 5 days or until scabbing is done. The breakout may have been caused by the skincare you have put as your skin was still very sensitive (just my opinion). Hopefully theres a lot of improvement now in your journey to achieving better looking skin.
The only thing I would suggest is to get a fan, This helped a lot with the heat and itchiness especially after applying the La Roche Posay Cicaplaste Baume
Hey! Thanks for the video. Can you do a before after pic of laser treatment? How much do you think percentage wise has this helped? In 3 sessions? Thanks! :)
Hi, thank you for all the useful information. I had my first laser session on November 27th, and I’m planning to do the other two sessions this winter with 6-week intervals. So, in total, I'll have 3 sessions this winter."Is it too much for one season?
Thank you!!!! I was actually looking into it for maybe "maintenance mode" once the laser sessions are complete for just "well aging" concerns. I don't really have ice pick scarring so I'm not sure if the derm would suggest it as another treatment for my acne scars once he sees the progress from this first session. Have you tried it before? It seems intense
First off ,ur beautiful,i was wondering why u had 3 sessions so fast,i,ve been told to wait min.6 months between sessions so skin can improve,i,ve even been told by another doctor to wait a year to see improvement.
You shouldn't touch your face so much and when you do touch it with your fingers make sure they are very clean. Did your doctor approve your using the cicaplast balm as well as other products? When I had resurfacing laser I was told to apply Vaseline only 2 twice a day. The burning is a warning that your skin doesn't like that product while your barrier is impaired.
Hey this question has been bugging me out, when you started tretinoin and used microneedling did it helped your acne scars? I want to know so i dont waste money and just go for the lasers
I noticed some refinement in my skin texture when I started using tretinoin which did help with the look of the scars and made my pores look good, though I found glycolic acid quicker with smoothing out my skin. But nothing topical is going to break down old scar tissue that I have. Professional microneedling was WAY better than at-home, definitely noticed more permanent improvements but again it goes back to me having old scar tissue that is hard to address so that's why the dermatologist performed a laser treatment on me. Talk to the derm performing the treatments, they need to look at your scars. While I found the laser to be the best so far, that's for my situation.
I did My First treatment today, only one the cheeks. Did not hurt, only used cold ice blocks before the treatment. Feels like the skin is burning. Feel pretty fine, but it only been 10hours tho
@@michxmash congrats! Can you do a video showing your progress after your third treatment? Also, were you nervous about getting CO2 and potential PIH production given your skin type (Fitz 3-4)? Thanks!
@@ManUntdForever for sure! I feel like because I'm more confident now with how I heal PIE, that I could handle the laser. Having said that, it was disconcerting that it's my whole face and neck I'm dealing with 😅
No hyperpigmentation but definitely residual redness. It eventually went away once I started easing up on the amount of items I used in my skincare routine.
I dont know y u applied this much skin creams which ur doctor dint even recommend u ..i recently did co2 ..i apply only what my doctor told to apply ..
You are permanently touching your face. No wonder you are breaking out, your skin can’t really defend itself right now. Also putting cicaplast permanently can contribute to this, it’s too occlusive in that amount.

Thanks so much Zack! This is definitely a "beauty is pain" procedure 😅 be sure to track your results as well!

Do you not wear moisturizer?
Thanks so much for sharing your experience! I plan on getting CO2 laser soon!! This video was extremely helpful!
So beautiful and healthy skin. The best of this procedure is how you feel with yourself ❤️ thank you for sharing!
Great results!! I do ALOT of these procedures in Maryland, US using CO2 and Halo. Great treatments!
Did you do any vinegar soaks or get an antibiotic prescribed?
No I didn't, I was just told to use a cica balm after the session!

I was told by the dermatologist to do 1 session a month for 3 months, then wait for a year before continuing.
Hi darlig, how much did all this cost you??
Very beautiful. What state did u get this done at
Sorry I got this procedure done in Europe, I never lived in the states!

Cost should be stated
How much does the laser treatment cost? Would be helpful to know thanks
I paid 1750 for mine. Dr Omar Ibrahimi in Connecticut. Amazing doctor with a lot of experience.
I did My First treatment today, only one the cheeks. Did not hurt, only used cold ice blocks before the treatment. Feels like the skin is burning. Feel pretty fine, but it only been 10hours tho
Has your scarring gone? What had you done?
Who was the doctor
have you gotten your second treatment? your skin looks really nice in the video!
I actually just got my 3rd treatment today! And thank you 😊
@@michxmash congrats! Can you do a video showing your progress after your third treatment? Also, were you nervous about getting CO2 and potential PIH production given your skin type (Fitz 3-4)? Thanks!

@@michxmash where did you get it done? it's hard to find Dermatologist that familiar with asian skin (Fitzpatrick 3 and higher)
We called a kid in highschool 1 pump. 🤣
Thanks for making a comprehensive video about your experience! Wanted to ask if you shave peach fuzz?
I do shave my face occasionally! Moreso for exfoliation since I don't have a crazy amount of peach fuzz.
@@michxmash please do make a tutorial on face shaving whenever you're free 🥺🌼
Did it hurt?
Do you recommend a very reliable place to do the treatment in Miami?
Sorry I do not, I'm not American and wouldn't know where to begin!
@@michxmash Where are you from? From your accent, I thought you were American
Have you experienced hyperpigmentation 3 months still exist after CO2 laser?
No hyperpigmentation but definitely residual redness. It eventually went away once I started easing up on the amount of items I used in my skincare routine.
@@michxmash what’s your skin care routine? Does it include hydroquinone 4%?
You look great post treatment..My goodness I looked like a truck ran over my face.
I dont know y u applied this much skin creams which ur doctor dint even recommend u ..i recently did co2 ..i apply only what my doctor told to apply ..
Hey great video.....how much percentage of improvement have you noticed....and how many more sessions are you planning to undertake
I already had another 2 sessions since! I'll probably do a follow-up video at the end of May or beginning of June ☺️
@@michxmash hey that's great to hear.....so how much % of improvement have you noticed so far ??
I went to work right after my procedure.
Ok black face is good co2 leather or only Whit face
Did you get and facial fat loss from this.
Not at all! In fact, I feel like my face looks more filled because the indentations lifted so much (see review video for more!)
Fat loss occurs years later...
Doesn't come laser kill fat that shows up in the future???
thanks for sharing u really helped me
Wow Beautiful ❤
