How long should I wait in between Fraxel Repair/Restore laser treatment sessions?

K456
I just had 1 of 3 sessions of both fraxel repair and fraxel restore on my (11 year old) breast reduction scars and stretch marks. I'm trying to plan my next 2 sessions and want to be sure I don't wait too long in between. I'm traveling a lot for work this spring and am trying to accommodate recovery time for ideal results. They recommend 4 weeks in between treatments. Is it okay to extend or slightly shorten those periods? Does it affect healing? Thanks so much!
