How far apart should I get Fraxel and Excel V laser resurfacing treatments?

Asked By:brooklynNYer in Brooklyn, NY

Two days ago I underwent my first Excel V treatment for telangiectasia, which was fine. After the procedure (first of 3), my dermatologist discussed also considering Fraxel laser for some acne scarring, enlarged pores, and general redness. I would have my first Fraxel treatment two weeks from now. Then, my *second Excel V treatment* about two weeks after that. My question: is this normal? She assured me it's fine to intersperse the two procedures with one another, but it seems odd to me.
