Fraxel Restore is NOT for Facial Redness...

Fraxel Restore is not going to work for facial redness... Fraxel Restore is for sundamage, dyschromias, texture and resurfacing. Hope this helps. Dr. Grant Stevens Marina PlasticSurgery Associates Marina del Rey, CA The Institute

IPL treats facial redness

Fraxel is great for brown spots and wrinkles. Follow Fraxel treatments with IPL to treat redness. IPL works best for redness when you don't use topical anesthesia.

Redness is best treated with a short pulse IPL like VascuLight Elite, SmoothCool, Palomar Max G or a Pulsed Dye Laser

Fraxel Restore Dual is not the best treatment for facial redness. A visible light IPL with high energy short pulses or a pulsed dye laser are the best devices for treating facial redness.

Fraxel Re:store does not treat facial redness

Fraxel Re:store laser is a great treatment to stimulate collagen, improve pigmentation and minimize acne scars, but it does not treat blood vessels that cause facial redness. IPL would be an appropriate treatment for the redness.
