How often can I get Fraxel Dual laser treatments?

I recommend once every 4 weeks, no sooner. The fraxel sessions can be spread over larger stretches, such as 2-3 months without any negative impact on results.

Thank you for your question. Unfortunately, without at least a picture, it is impossible for me to determine whether Fraxel is the right choice for you. I encourage you to make an appointment with a board-certified cosmetic dermatologist that can provide an in-person assessment of your skin as well as treatment advice. At my office, we feature more than 45 different lasers that allow us to customize procedures to the unique needs of each patient. The ability to tailor your procedure is a critical factor in ensuring your treatment is both safe and successful. Good luck!

This is going to largely depend on the skin condition that will be treated. There are patients who may only need one treatment to get the results related to sun spots and enlarged pores. But for deeper wrinkles and scars it may take more than one session. Regardless, your skin will look refreshed and smoother after just one treatment. It generally takes three weeks for your skin to heal between each session, so this is approximately when you will come in for your next session.

Treatment with Fraxel will not improve the appearance of jowls.  Depending on the severity, Profound laser treatment may be beneficial in improving the appearance of premature jowl formation. In addition, Dual does work well for pigmentation issues and can be done every 4 to 6 weeks.

The Dual ia a great laser for pigmentation on all skin types. It won't change the jowls much. It can be performed every 4-6 weeks. If you are concerned about making the pigmentation worse, you should be on retin a and hydroquinone before and after for several weeks. Good skin care is essential to maintain your results.

Fraxel will not help with JOWLS, pigmentation can be reduced with many many different lasers, Fraxel 1927 , C and B and Pico. Its not the laser that makes pigmentation worse, its the Specialist and the after care, see a good specialist near you to assess your skin type and pick the best METHOD, not device for your concerns.
