I would like to have fraxel done on my upper lip area only. The rest of my skin is probably OK. Would ten days be sufficient to be able to cover any redness so I could go back to work and not be obvious? thank-you

Answer: Fraxel Recovery Depending on which fraxel laser and the settings used, 10 days is generally sufficient for recovery. The newest fraxel dual lasers allow for minimal down time. Please consult with a board certified specialist who can assist you with achieving the results you seek. 3-dimensional computer imaging can also help you visualize what you may look like afterwards and serve as a good communication tool with your doctor.

Answer: Fraxel Laser and upper lip lines The Fraxel laser is a great laser for pigmentation and wrinkles. The healing time generally depends both on your skin type and the energy (joules) used. Usually ten days is sufficient time to recover from the Fraxel laser. Post-op I suggest you use Epiceram and sunscreen. For the best results please consult a board certifed dermatologist with a great deal of experience with lasers.
