How long should you wait after a Fraxel Dual to get a Fraxel CO2 done?

Question

So I first had a Fraxel CO2 laser done and then 2 months later, I got the Fraxel dual laser as it was part of the treatment/package. I got the Fraxel CO2 done on January 2nd and my Fraxel dual on March 4th.I know I should ask the cosmetic dermatologist but I just want to know a rough estimate wait time.

Once the skin is epithelialized and the skin is prepped with a topical skin lightener such as Melarase creams, you should be able to undergo a second round of fractional laser. Best, Dr. Karamanoukian Los Angeles

You don’t need to wait for very long.  Depending on the treatment goals and setting
used the time to heal will vary.  We
usually have patients wait for at least 4 weeks in between treatments of this
kind.

We suggest waiting one month after treatment; however, an evaluation should take place prior to scheduling.
