I think fraxel is the gold standard for antiaging and can be tailored for sun spots, wrinkles. I suggest to consult with an expert for evaluation.  We combined with microneedling/PRP and skin care to get the best outcomes if you are a candidate.  RF microneedling like intensif are a newer alternative type treatment.  Best, Dr. Emer.
