How long do I have to avoid sun exposure after Fraxel 1550?

qwertylicious
I’ve read from other RealSelf answers that you should avoid sun exposure up to 6 months after Fraxel and other answers that say 2-4 weeks should be sufficient. What is the general rule for sun exposure after Fraxel for different skin types? What about RF microneedling, like Infini?
