How does the Fraxel laser treat acne scars?
Fraxel lasers, like other fractional lasers produces tiny columns of laser energy that penetrate the skin. Depending on the type of skin you have the depth of scars, and type of acne scarring, your Specialist will determine the depth and density of treatment. Laser energy is concentrated in the deeper dermal layers of the skin, and this breaks down acne scars. The skin responds to this breakdown of old collagen, and stimulates new collagen. This is the basis behind acne scar revision. Lasers are best for certain types of acne scars, remember, not all acne scars are best treated with lasers, and methods such as TCA PEELS, fillers, surgical subscision, PRP energy based microneedling and RF devices are needed for a targeted approach.
What is the success rate of Fraxel laser treatment for acne scars?
Over and over again I stress that acne scar management should be done at a specialist level, and tailored according to the patients skin type, acne scar type and downtime. Most patients who have acne scars will have a variety of scars including deep ice pick, rolling, box-car and atrophic scars. Fraxel in theory will improve all forms of acne scarring, however a targeted approach will give the best results. Acne scars can be treated with two types of Fraxel laser- the 1550, or dual, or the Fraxel RePair or Co2 laser.
How does Fraxel compare with other fractional laser machines?
Fraxel is FDA approved for the treatment of acne scars, however it is almost impossible to compare all our lasers at the same level. Why is this so? Well, because every patient with acne scars is unique. Scar types, depths and extent will differ for all acne scar patients, as well as their skin type and downtime. Importantly, cost can be a factor as well. As a guide I rate Fraxel as a modest treatment for acne scars. There are many other better lasers for acne scars. CO2 CORE Fractional using higher energy settings can be more effective in deeper scars, but the trade off is longer healing times and it should be used in caution on darker skin types. Fraxel 1550 in this case is safer. CO2 lasers made by DEKA and Lumenis have higher density levels, and more power. ‘With power comes responsibility- spiderman’- however these lasers outperform Fraxel CO2 by far. The future however is not solely in lasers, for now it lies in insulated micro needling energy devices, like INFINI RF, in combination with PRP. Lasers are not redundant, they still play a political role for rebates, and clinically for shallow box car scars. Remember, it is never about the device, but the method of scar revision that gives optimal results. Everyone will have a unique pattern of acne scars, and find the correct method will give the best results.
Can Fraxel be used in all skin types and skin colours?
Yes. Fraxel treatment is excellent treatment for acne scarring in all skin types, including darker skin scar patients. Asians, Latino, Greek and Middle Eastern patients can be treated with an excellent safety profile. In this setting, the 1550 Fraxel is the safer one, however this treatment, in my opinion is outdated with the even of insulated RF based microneedling systems such as INFINI in combination with Platelet Rich Plasma.

It is particularly admirable that you chose to speak the truth given you know it might cost you your board position. Your patients are very lucky to have a doctor with such great integrity. Cheers!
Well, ... I'm not saying the laser is bad, as with any company, some devices are outstanding, others... well, can be improved upon. Creating a consumable for a CO2 laser is not a smart move for the company, and that has to be passed on to the patient, hence why the price of Fraxel is so expensive in comparison to other fractional co2 lasers. Davin Lim
Thank you so much for your videos doctor Lim! When i see you upload a video my heart literaly melts 😁
Love your no BS honest thoughts! One day I will go to Australia get treatment from you!
amazing review of lasers! As a dermatologist in the Philippines, buying a laser machine really costs a lot for a practicing dermatologist and every company tries to convince you to buy their brand. thank you so much Dr. Davin for sharing your experiences with these devices.
You are welcome. Yes, every company will try to convince doctors, even Specialist who know their devices better than them (from a clinical point of view), that their device is the best (Thermage for example... same company as the one that makes the Fraxel RePair). Yes, some lasers within that company are stand out, like Fraxel 1927 and the Clear and Brilliant system, but the rest does not stack up as industry standard.
Doctor you are our voice and hope, I pray that you get ur message and knowledge to many doctors as possible asap.
Thanks for your kind words. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim

Nice nice review. Thanks for sharing your professional knowledge with us!
I love watching your videos! I'm on a laser journey so it's reassuring to know exactly how the lasers work! Thank you. Keep making videos :)
Thanks for viewing. Dr Davin Lim
Thank you for your honesty!
Too much hype... with Fraxel for acne scars, keeping it real. Cheers, DL

Agreed...and how refreshing.
Good job. Dr. Lim, I always love the information you pass aong. Always interesting and honest. Thanks. Keep it coming...
No problems, thanks for viewing.
With the advancements in equipment and technology the medical community has to adapt and adopt new procedures. You show us how your practices have changed and improved. You're always interesting and informative 🙂
Thanks, yes, the landscape is constantly changing so exciting times ahead. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim
Great informative video. I enjoy your teaching. Thank you
No problems, thanks for watching. DL
How long is the healing and down time for this type of laser for acne scarring? Really appreciate the honesty was considering fraxel but this sound so much better especially after seeing your before and afters!
Hello Dr. and team. Great video and excellent presentation. Can you recommend anybody in LA to treat acne scarring? 🙏🏼
At last... Someone's said it! You're so awesome! I need to get myself a flight to Australia. You know exactly what you're doing!
Took awhile for someone to publicly announce that there are BETTER treatments for acne scars. I am saying it works, but hey.. Fraxel should have more power, revise their delivery system, and not have a consumable tip for the CO2... there is no need to ...except for the company to make $$$.. this means patients are disadvantaged. Truth be told. Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
عفوا دكتور لم استطع ان افهم اللغة هل قلت انه هناك علاج اخر للندب اخبرني ماهي
اخدت حصة ليزر فراكشنل لكنه غير مفيد لم ارى نتيجة@@drdavinlim
Really informative and very interesting! Thanks Doctor.
No problems, thanks for viewing.Dr Davin Lim
Dr. David Lim, would you say Recosma laser that's quite popular in Europe, the future for treating acne scar as well? I personally suffered really bad scarring from high intensity fraxel treatment on my acne scars years ago and it really affected my personal life. I have been watching your videos to get educated on what are the best options to make improvements. Thank you so much for sharing your videos!
I am about to get my fraxel 2 days from now.. Thank you Doc for reminding to not.. :) Unfortunately, i'm too far away from Australia for your service..
Hi dr. Davin I’ve been following you and I like your videos and it helps me decide what to do better to treat my acne scars. But I wish it’s you could perform the treatment 😊 I hope you’d do live videos too so we can interact with you and give us more advice on what type of treatment is best for each individual skin type.😊god bless
Positively Awesome! You need to get these great points across to Americans!
Love your great info!
The US knows all this... it whether one practices ethically or needs to sell due to payments for the laser. I don't blame the Drs, it s the laser company that does all the bullshit selling then leaves it to the doctor to sell. Hence the video ... cheers, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Hi! Thanks for clearing this. It was really informative since it's like everyone is doing lasers these days. Does the iPixel use the same principle as Fraxel? How significant are the results from Infini compared to regular microneedling?
Fraxel TRANSFORMED my skin, got rid of fine wrinkles and made my pores less visable and did reduce some scarring. The best thing I ever did! However, at Dr Lee Clinic in Bristol, i was told that deep white pigmented scarring would not go away and they did not. I shall have a look for other things, but my scarring is minimal and I was reborn with younger looking skin!
GREAT info! Thanks so much.
looking forward to watching more updated of this
No problems. ... cheers, Dr Davin Lim
Love your vids, Dr Lim. But I have to say love this one the best for the honesty. I am Asian and suffer from melasma. My Dermatologist suggested Fraxel as treatment. I bought a package of 4 then additional extras. The downtime was more than the 3 days I was advised (it was more like 10 days) and my melasma has actually gotten worse on one side. I have now pretty much given up on trying to treat it, other than wearing sunscreen, staying out of the sun and cover up when outside of house. Would love to see you do a vid on treatment for melasma, especially for Asian skin.
Done one already... have a look through my videos. Will be doing more on treating ethnic skin types by the end of the year...have quite a few topics to cover. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim.
Hi, Dr Lim thank you for the very insightful video. I wanted to ask what are some of the options for people who have acne scars but also have darker skin complications (African decent). What are your favourite methods to treat ice pick scars, boxcar scars for these skin tones? Would it be Different for darker skin or the same but just less evasive? it would be interesting and really helpful to see before and afters of some of your patients with darker skin tones. Best wishes :)
Thanks for your video, I've been working with lasers/injectables for 3 years and I'm looking to learn more!
No problems, always happy to share.... DL
Love your charming honesty! :)
Thanks... Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Thank's a lot, it's very informative 👍 I love and subs. it.😀
The information is awesome. Please make a video on keloid scar too.
the best acne doctor out there!
No, I don't treat acne, just scars. DL
Davin, thanks a lot for sharing all this amazing knowledge with us!
i started getting permapen treatments after watching your videos and I am extremely happy with the results.
too bad we don't have professionals like you in Ukraine :( nor Infini RF yet
Thanks for viewing. Cheers Davin Lim
Dr. Lim is so candid and honest - why does he not have his own tv show yet?!! I'm going to have the Infini RF done here in the next few weeks with platelet plasma. My doctor had also suggested a combination of laser, Infini and platelet plasma for the first round. After viewing this video, I think I'll pass on the laser and will try the Infini and platelet treatment.
No.. follow your doctors advice .... I often use a combination of INFINI PRP and laser... laser has its uses for scarring and rejuvenation. Every skin type is different, as is every patient. I did not want to do a video that complicates things without laying down some foundations, so stick with your Specialist advice. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim
thank you for honest and excellent explanation.
Thank you for viewing appreciate it. DL
I am so glad I found this video because I've been looking into CO2 for acne scars for year now and have been getting mixed feeling about the results I see.
Im not saying CO2 is bad, ... but Fraxel delivery, power and consumables are. No need to have consumables to make profit from patients. Dr Davin S. Lim
your skin is goalll, so glowing and even
Thx, Dl
Brisbane, Australia.
I'm thinking about taking a trip to Australia just to visit you, I would love to know the prices for the procedures of acne scar removals. From what I can tell I have boxcar scars and rolling scars but I don't know which procedure would be best for me. if you can give me more information it would be great.
in 2020 what do you recommend for permanent red acne marks on middle of the cheek that are shallowly pitted?
Sounds like what I have. But I just got my second fraxel treatment. Can't go back now lol. Let's hope I get the results I am looking for 🙄
Thank you so much for this video!
Welcome indeed. Davin Lim
Another Great Vid Doc. From your Notif Squad
😍😍🙌
Hell yes :)! He is the best
Very educational video thank you!
Welcome DL
Which 1 is the best laser treatment for acne scars?
Hello! Please can you share if you have treated brown melanin skin? If you have did any of your devices cause hyper pigment to the skin? If so, how long or what would you have your patient do afterwards or what follow up procedure would you suggest.
Many of these devise seem to work well for white and pink skin tones, but cause a real tragedy when applied to darker tones, even light cream complexion patients - would you agree.
I am a person looking for a doctor who can help the recovery of skin tone and the removal of dark spots. Skin is not sensitive, but does darken quickly if rubbed to hard, heat, or picking.
Any suggestions?
Thank you for such a thorough video!
Enjoyed watching!
Dr Lim, do you know if bellafill will be made available outside the U.S for treatment of acne scars?
Thanks for your video, Doctor!
I’ve read on the comments that you’re based on Australia.Is it possible to book appointments with you if we reside in Australia?
Thanks!
Hi Dr. Lim, what would be the best form of treatment for boxcar scar and rolling scars. Currently, my dermatologist performed 3 sessions of microneedling and I didn’t see much results. What would you recommend? I appreciate your advice!! Thanks! 🙌🏻
this is a question about techniques in using the skinpen11 for acne scars(I'm a patient)I know it might not always be that great for this problem---But while having this treatment for scars (anyway)would it be protocol for the person giving the treatment to give equal attention to the entire face rather than focus on one large scar more than the other areas of the face? I'm just trying to figure out whether this practitioner knew what she was doing or whether she didn't.
thanks,I'm a fan of your work. I think Australia is more evolved in this work....
I really want to go to your clinic and have my acne scar treatment done. You obviously know everything about scars and what type of treatment is appropriate. However, I am living in the UK. I wanna know how much will I need to spend and how long do I need to stay there for optimum result.
Hi Dr. Lim, do any new laser's today remove or diminish scares, other then acne? I had an accident when I was a child and have a scares on my forehead and two under my nose. I would love to get rid of them if possible, but not sure anything would work. Thanks for the great info..
Hey Dr. Lim, What is your opinion of infiniRF for atrophic acne scarring? Also, will infiniFR help with discoloration hyper pigmentation or no? Thanks for your expertise.
I have lots of dark acne scars from squeezing. My doctor told me that Helios II laser is the best to fix.
How about your opinion?
Hi Dr David Lim what about the Fractora treatment. does it good for acne scars?
if only you were a little bit closer to europe,,,in my state we only have FRAXEL restore which is used for acne scar or dermaroller,,thanks for your honesty,,have a great day
Hi Dr Davin, thanks a lot for this video! What do you have to say about using microneedling with Dermapen to treat ice pick acne scars? There are no doctor around me using the Infini tool. Is Dermapen just as good?
Very informative love the before and after too
Thanks for viewing - much appreciated. Dr Davin Lim

Lasers and Lifts by Dr Davin Lim
what is mosiac treatment?
Thank you for the information Dr Davin Lim I started searching i only found the lumenis ultrapulse encore i was just wondering if it the same one as in your video
11:17, so for the one in the lower left side, would you prefer to use a Fractional laser, not microneedeling???
May I ask if any narrow tips are made for the RF Microneedling device? A single needle width might be good. Could the standard tip be customized?
I have two narrow scars in a delicate area of the face. The normal RF tip seems way too wide. Thank-you.
Hey colleague! What type of eye protection do you personally use with the candela co2re? Some people tell me normal glasses "are enough for it", because "tissue doesn't reflect the laser". What's your opinion on that? Btw, what settings and what mode do you use to "fraxel" acne scars? fusion mode? fractional coverage%? Thanks in advance!!
Is there doctor in canberra doctor.Can you recommend one of the best doctor like you in canberra who is well specialised .so that I can contact.
Dr. Davin! What do you think of Lutronics Fractional CO2 laser for deep acne scarring? I just had my first session done yesterday. Pretty swollen up at the moment. Please let me know.
What laser would you recommend for an indented scar in the crease on the side of the nose, which was actually caused from a laser to treat a small red vein. Also how long should I wait to have it treated after initial damage, as there is some purple discoloration.
Dr. Lim, Thanks for your very informative videos. Could your please tell me what is the difference between Infinity Rf and Scarlet Rf??
The insulation of the needles makes a HUGE difference. Infini RF is NOT perfect, the spring is too weak IMO, but the energy delivery is spot on. DL
Dr. Davin Lim, i had my treatment using this device. My question is after the 1st treament what is the interval for the next treatment?????
I Follow your advice about this machine i find this laser for almost 2yrs researching this machine in Thailand.... the result is so AMAZING......
Be guided by your dermatologist, as we all have different settings . All the best, Davin Lim. Brisbane Skin Specialist. AUSTRALIA>
SO no lasers whatsoever? I've had 3 fraxels and 2 profractionals scions with minimal results with acne scarring. Please advise.
Is the last procedure the same thing as radiofrequency microneedling?
you are doing a great job, doc. i have one question for you: how can i prevent acne? I do not consume eggs, nuts, almonds and try to eat healthy. But i often still have acne. I would be really grateful if you answered my question. Thank u in advance
Best see a medical dermatologist, they can see you IN PERSON and find a treatment that is suited to your type of acne. All the best Wave TK, Dr Davin Lim
Dr Davin Lim I saw an answer from Dr. Weiner on realself . He said that the setting of Infini should be lower and longer pulse duration and higher TL would be counterproductive. What's your opinion about this?
What Is the best laser for acne scars
I would agree with you wholeheartedly.
Kate
Yes, newer better things out there... I still use Fraxel, still love the 1927 ..but the 1550 for acne scars... well outdated. Davin Lim
Does co2 laser treatment damage facial hairs? Cuz i dont want my facial hairs to go permanent after getting co2 treatment. Please respond
I'm getting fraxel on this Friday. I'm a bit nervous as I hear mixed reviews about using this treatment on dark skin (see my avatar) what would you recommend as you seem really knowledgble? I have s combination of ice pick/ with some box car scars on my cheeks and temples from acne in my 20s... mostly icepick . Am I safe with this treatment ?
Dr. Davin Lim your very awesome... i love all your videos about scar removal..... i have done many scar removal procedures here in thailand but still the scars are still visible on my both cheecks... the treatment i had underwent are the ff.
co2 fractional laser 10x (bison and lutronic)
erbium pixel laser 6x (Alma)
dermapen 2x
derma roller 7x
sellas fractional laser 3×
Ematrix 2x
subcision 3x
tca cross/spot peel 4x
Its not about the treatment its finding the SOLUTION for the scar type. Davin Lim
Try ResurFX
HELLO FROM ISRAELֱ
I AM ENJOING YOUR VIDS!!! GIVES ME A GREAT LESSONS FOR MY FROFETIONAL AS A COSMETICS
IF WE TAKE THE MILLIA ׂACA WHITE HEADS, ARE THEY GOING TO REFILL AGAIN.
I wish I could come to your clinic, sadly I'm in Europe...
How much does this with the needling and prp cost ???
So unexpected video! Ty, Doctor. It is so sad we have to overpay for the not best treatment.
Btw, who is the manufacturer fore "co2 core" laser? Don't hear about it.
And what about Joule Sciton with all his modules for acne scars? Someone say it even "deeper" than co2 and get better results. I was done "cold erbium" ablation + Fractional skin resurfacing + smt else onto deeper areas of scarring from start and at the end of procedure ("all in one sitting" with 3 different modules)+PRP. Now I have a thick crust on the face.
And dunno why in my country doctors don't like INFINI :< Almost all say it's not too strong to cure acne scars, lasers are much better for it...
Fraxel not effective for deep acne scars cant recommend it but combination of pearl and co2 fractional laser worked for me i can tell.Have a nice day.
Dr. Kim can you recommend a good dermatologist in nyc ? I had a bad tca cross experience left me with bigger and deeper scars that I want to treat .
doctor. . does infini rf treatment works for all type of scars? I have mixed scars.. not atrophic or tethered.. but shallow icepick and boxcar scars! does this available in all countries? I am from India... thanks for your videos.. really giving hope for people who suffering from these scars
Is it safe to do fractional co2 on your face if your skin is prone to keloids?
@drdavinlim theres a device called FIXER by TENTREK LASERS in Colombia. They claimed is RF but I wonder if as good as Infini.
Infini is just a device, its the user that makes the most difference with these devices. Davin Lim
the dr. that offers this treatment is not on realself, i know she went to a seminar in Monaco and has a good following but idk if shes any good. shes @draanitavergara on Instagram.
Hi doctor, I would like to know how much you charge for each session? I am interested to do this treatments.
Depends on the procedure, level of Medicare benefits etc... due to my work load, am seeing new patients in Jan 2017. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim
Thank you so much for your honest sharing! I’ve had very bad acne scarring on my chin only and am very clear abs smooth elsewhere. If I don’t wanna fix what’s not broken, is it possible to do this on the affected area only?
Hey, I think it should be possible. My cosmetologist hesitated to do only the sides of my face (where the scars are) so it appears to be an option. However, since I am only half European she went for the full face so that the skin tone blends better in case of discoloration.
Hello Dr. Lim my son has a red birthday on his cheek and i have gone with a dermatology for about a year and half and I only see 25% improvement she does the laser every month you think its a good idea if I asked her to do it every two weeks? Please any answer would help my son who is 16 is going through depression and I want to do something to help him
Can you explain how to determine different types of acne scars and the treatments available?
Have done lots of videos on this.. its in the playlist on acne scars. At least an hour of viewing. All the best, Dr Davin Lim. Brisbane. Australia.
Please Dr I need your counsel i have many scars and Acne so which laser is good for me
Hi Dr Lim, wish i'd seen this earlier. I had fraxel 1927 on an area which looked like a bunch of freckles but it was actually a few pimples that scarred many years ago. Unfortunately nearly 2 months later it is still red and darker. I'm thinking of making an appointment with you. Any suggestions what to do? Thank-you
Hang tight for 2-3 months... should fade. Take baseline photo... compare.... if still there, I MAY help with other GENTLE Lasers. Davin Lim
ok will do. Thank-you for your prompt reply!
Hi Dr. Lim. Can you recommend a good Doctor here in the Philippines who is as good as you who could treat deep acne scars? Thank you
Sorry, don't know of any. Nearest to you is Prof CL Goh- he is a genius. Seriously.... DL (He is in S pore)
Thank you! 😊❤👍
SOU DO BRASIL EXISTE UMA CLÍNICA NO ESTADO DE RECIFE PERNAMBUCO QUE POSSA ME ENDICAR AGRADEÇO
Wow. Now I want an appointment with you. Such I shame that I live in Spain. I have mainly rolling scars with some box and ice pick scars. Do you recommend laser type treatments over chemical peelings? I don't think here we have access to microneedling :(
Treat the acne scar type.. Davin Lim, Brisbane Dermatologist. Australia.
How? Laser or chemical peelings? Sorry for the inconvenience. Really fan of your videos
I am so extremely sad you're not in Ireland. Do you have any suggestions where I can get same treatment like yours in Ireland. TIA
Sorry, Im at an European conference for Cosmetic and Medical Derm in Prague in 6 weeks on the so called ' expert panel' ( ME an expert LOL), anyways someone things I am, so will do my best to find out who is good in Europe. This is the black hole as I do not know of any Derms or plastics who specialise in this treatment. IF ANYONE knows of someone good, I will give a shout out.... cheers, Dr Davin Lim
Thank you it was very informative.. by the way I got a answer from you at realself site,that hypopigmented cut scar should be used laseric method(or microneedling) plus latisse.
how can that 'latisse' be used on that scar area?? I got no information about latisse ..
Best see a dermatologist in person to guide you... this is the best way. Each dermatologist will have their own take on things, and they may have a better solution than I do... cheers, Dr Davin Lim
Hi Doctor Lim. I have a question for you regarding deep acne scars such as box car, pitted. Have you heard of Inmode Fractora? Looks like it is a new RF that just came out. What are your thoughts on it? Do you use it in your practice? Please reply. Thank you! P.S. I love watching your videos, you are awesome! SO informative, wish you were in the States.
Yes I am aware, its not as good as the micorneedling RF e.g.. INFINI or good ablative fractional lasers but can marginally improve acne scars. All the best, Dr Davin Lim
Lasers and Lifts by Dr Davin Lim thank you so much for your reply! You would definitely reccomand Infini over Fractora right? Thanks!
I have done co2 fraxel laser and mfrp microneedling and 70% of my scars are gone... I'm so happy 😊😊
is mfrp - mn radiofrequency? how many sessions of mnrf and how long to see satisfactory results..like the best result?
Hello sir. I always watch your channel. There's no CO2 fractional laser nor any other acne scar treatment procedures that are available here in my city. (Kidapawan City, Philippines). I would like to ask if my acne scars (I believe it's rolling scars as described by how you define their appearance and characteristics) can somehow be healed by DIamond Peel. I'm on my 4th sessions and I'm trying to get atleast 10 sessions and the scars seems to be lighter now. However, with angle lighting I can still visibly see the shallow parts. Please give me an advise on what to do sir David.
Treat the scar type, there are no shortcuts.
Best doctor
Thanks, Davin Lim
Hi.. Dr. Good day, may i ask.. Is fractional laser treatment is safe for sensitive skin? Thanks..
Depends on the settings.
How much it will cost per session for icepick scars
I have severe acne scar. I want to get your treatment someday. Is it helpful if I only take one or two treatment? Long time journey is not easy. Hope to get your reply.
see someone that is a Specialist near you.... some patients need 1-2 treatment, some need 8-10..... I am only telling it as it is... I can NEVER give an accurate treatment plan unless I do 1. A psych profile 2. Examine under normal light 3. Examine under angled or tangental light 4. Touch scars, 5. Animate 6. Get a full detailed medical history 7. Understand your expectations. Anyone who does acne scar revision should follow the above rules... I am flattered by your comments however the aim of this video and channel is NOT to get more patients for me, but to educate YOU and others about acne scar revision. This industry needs a clean up, and that is why I do these videos. Thanks once again. Cheers, Dr Davin Lim
