Laser Genesis Vs. Fraxel - What's the Difference?

Fraxel is semi-ablative, drilling holes from 400-1000 microns deep, the Laser Genesis doesn’t drill any holes, there is just a microvascular effect and collagen remodeling. Fractional is more aggressive, but a bigger result. Thank you for your question and good luck with everything.
