Answer: Alexandite Fraxel Combo Sunspot are cause by an excess exposure to ultraviolet rays. Although sunspot are not dangerous they can mimic the appearance of skin cancer. To treat this we like to use a combination of both Alexandrite and Fraxel Dual. Fraxel: Fraxel Dual is a 1927nm wavelength which treats superficially pigmentation. It uses controlled injuries to the skin which sends it into repair mode and speeds up cellular turnover. Fraxel Dual also helps improve fine lines, texture, and pre-cancerous skin cells. Alex Tri-Vantage: Alexandrite laser is a 755 Laser which spot treats pigment. It is designed to treat isolated pigmented lesions. After the patient has been numbed, we do 8 passes of the Fraxel 1927, followed by the Alexandrite laser on top. Combining both lasers allows us to treat the full photo-damaged area. Several treatments may be needed to improve the sunspots.

Answer: Fraxel or Alex-Trivantage Laser You asked an excellent question about which laser to choose. Fraxel Dual has two different wavelengths - one for dark spots and one for scars. The Alex treats small isolated dark spots like you have very efficiently. I would recommend the Alex for the spots and either the Fraxel (1550) or the eMatrix (RF) for your acne scars. You can't treat both conditions at the same time. Please consult a board certified dermatologist with expertise in acne scars for the best cosmetic results. Best, Dr. Green
