Four days ago, I had some scaring on my leg removed with a Fraxel Laser. My dermatologist notified me that bruising would occur, and I am just wondering how long the healing process is, and if there were any treatment options to quicken the healing process up! Thank you so much!
Answer: Fraxel and Post-op Instructions I am not certain what you are describing since I have been doing Fraxel for many years and have never seen bruising. I would definitely contact your treating physician since I give every patient detailed post-op instructions after every laser procedure. Best, Dr. Green

Answer: Fraxel There are many different types of Fraxel lasers and the recovery varies from treatment to treatment. After a Fraxel treatment, patients typically experience redness and swelling that goes down after a few days. It would be rare for a patient to experience bruising after Fraxel, however it can happen. In that case, bruising may take a week or so to heal.
