How Long Before You See Improvements After Fraxel Restore?

Usually you need multiple treatments before collagen begins to build with Fraxel Re:Store, as it is a non-ablative laser and therefore relatively gentle. After your last session, collagen will continue to be stimulated for a few more months. You should continue to see benefits for up to six months. Some may even benefit for close to a year. Please consult a board-certified dermatologist to be evaluated for Fraxel Re:Store.

There is significant collagen build-up in some of our acne scar patients during the treatments, and although there are a few that see significant change after one or two treatments, most see the improvement around the third to fourth. The continued improvement in the six months after the last treatment is gradual but more in the first couple of months.

Fraxel Re:Store not only resurfaces the skin, it stimulates the body's production of collagen to rebuild the skin, and this takes time. You usually will not really be able to appreciate the results of your treatment until several weeks after your final treatment, and you may need up to three to four treatments. Please consult with a board-certified dermatologist to learn more about how Fraxel Re:Store can restore and rejuvenate your skin.
