Fraxel Dual Laser

The Fraxel Dual Laser is a non-invasive laser treatment that can help improve the appearance of aging and damaged skin with minimal discomfort and quick results. Fraxel is the original non-ablative and patented fractional laser technology that works on two
wavelengths to treat both superficial and deep conditions, resulting in smoother, fresher, younger-looking skin. The Fraxel laser induces collagen renewal, improves tone and texture, reduces fine lines, wrinkles and brown spots, and improves the appearance of acne scars.  It has also shown to treat actinic keratoses and help prevent skin cancer development. 

If you are considering Fraxel laser treatments there are several things to know before your treatment. 

1.  Mulpile treatments are to be expected.  Depending on the condition being treated a series of treatments should be performed.  these are typically spaced once monthly.  

2.  Sun protection is imperative both before and after your treatment.  

3.  We recommend that you arrive 90 minutes prior to your scheduled appointment for application of a numbing cream.  

4.  Downtime is variable depending on the intensity of the treatment you choose.  Discuss your ability to have downtime with your provider and they will tailor your treatment series for you. 

5. Results are both immediate and progressive.  Soon after the treatment, the surface of your skin will feel softer, look brighter
and show more even tone. The next few months will bring more improvement as the deeper layers of the skin continue to heal.
