Is fraxel laser okay for Asian skin?

Most Lasers can be used on all skin types, as long as the treating physician is VERY experienced with using Lasers. The Fraxel Restore Dual has been shown to be a great treatment option for Asian patients with brown spots, hyper pigmentation, and melasma. 

Thank you for your question. The Fraxel Laser has been proven to be safe for all skin types. It has been used clinically all over the globe with confirmed results. The Fraxel Laser has made CO2 laser obsolete by correcting many imperfections with the procedure. However, a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon is essential to determine the most relevant treatments for a potential patient.

Hi. One of the main advantages of the Fraxel laser and the reason it has have over 700,000 treatments world-wide is that it is safe for all types of skin. The Fraxel laser replaced the old-fashioned CO2 laser resurfacing that was popular in the late 90s (this can only be used on light skins). See the link below for more information.
