The area I’m talking about is the jaw area. Thank you:)
Answer: It can be done as a spot treatment b ut it recommended to do the entire area to help even out skin tone and texture. Fractional laser is an amazing and highly effective treatment in our office. We use the laser treatment to help with acne scars, large pores, fine wrinkles, tissue collagen loss, scars, sebaceous hyperplasia, active acne, and for brightening dark pigmentation. Although there are very strong fractional lasers such as CO2 laser, we use lighter treatments for corrective skincare and maintenance of results. Our Thulium fractional laser, clear and brilliant laser, and Ultra Thulium laser are excellent options in our clinic. We also perform CO2 fractional and erbium depending on skin tone and tolerance for downtime. Patients do have to use a Melarase cream before and after treatment to help further reduce pigmentation after laser. Melarase AM, Melarase PM, and Melapads can seriously improve surface sun damage and UV related pigmentation. Dark spots can improve with these treatments. I recommend fractional laser for incisional scars as well, especially after plastic surgery.

Answer: Fraxel on Targeted Area Yes, you can have a Fraxel treatment on a targeted area where you want to improve scarring. However, if you do not work with a board-certified dermatologist with extensive training and experience in this procedure, it may be easy to see where the treatment was performed after the fact. Make sure you choose a qualified provider who will know how to blend the treatment area into the untreated areas of your skin so the border is undetectable. This should ensure a very good result.

Answer: Fraxel for smaller treatment areas Thanks for your question. It is quite common to use Fraxel to treat isolated areas in need of rejuvenation. However, I encourage you to find a board-certified physician with extensive experience in this treatment to avoid visible lines between areas that were treated and those that were not. This experience professional will also be able to ensure your procedure is both safe and successful.

Answer: Laser Resurfacing and Skin tightening Options--Fraxel, Co2, lasers, microneedling/prp, sculptra, ultherapy, rf treatments Yes, you can have targeted Fraxel Spot treatments however, this is typically only recommended for problem areas such as small scars, indents, etc. If you are looking to have your entire jawline done, it is best to have the entire face done to ensure evenness throughout your face. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer.
