After Fraxel, wait for the redness to resolve before plucking
Restore is non-ablative, but the skin is still inflammed and plucking too soon leaves the door open to folliculitis and possible pigmentation. Also avoid retinoids, AHA products and all abrasive cleansers for one week. Always use that sunscreen!

Tweezing and waxing hair after Fraxel Restore
Wait one week to pluck and wait three to four weeks to wax skin that underwent Fraxel RE:store provided that no unusual reaction occurred on your skin after the Fraxel. Do not go in the sun without sunprotection after the Fraxel and waxing for fear of darkening pigment.

Hi,
Tweeze away. You should wait at least three weeks after Fraxel restore before having your facial hair waxed, but you may tweeze after one week.
Good luck and be well.
