New collagen and other dermal components grow for months after Fraxel
Fraxel Repair and Fraxel Restore induce new collagen production and whether it is this or nerve ending rejuvenation within the new collagen causing the tingling is not known, but it is a common symptom in laser resurfacing and surgical reconstruction.

Tingling after deep fraxel treatment
Well, it is difficult to say for certain. But after a deep Fraxel treatment, your skin heals itself with epidermal resurfacing and collagen remodeling. The nerve endings may "tingle" during this healing period. So the short answer to your question is yes.
