Fraxel laser facial has gained much popularity with celebrities walking through the clinic doors and returning with a much younger and tighter-looking face. With quite a few different Fraxel facial treatments, it can be challenging to choose the right treatment for you as each therapy addresses different skin ageing or pigmentation problems. In this article, we will look into what Fraxel laser facial is and the different types of Fraxel laser facial treatments available to treat different skin issues. We will also be looking into how the Fraxel laser facial works, its benefits as well as the side effects of undergoing Fraxel laser facial. Finally, we will be looking at Perfect Laser Clinics’s very own pigmentation removal treatment that has the added benefit of reducing skin ageing effects with the help of new collagen production for an even skin tone, and younger-looking face!

What Is Fraxel Laser Facial?
Fraxel treatment is a non-invasive procedure that employs a machine to administer a light beam subdivided into hundreds of minuscule therapeutic areas that address a portion of the face at a moment, akin to enhancing or altering a photographic picture from pixel to pixel.
Fraxel treatment has eliminated the distinction between ablative and non-ablative laser therapy for solar-damaged and wrinkling skin. While ablative laser therapy primarily targets the epidermal and non-ablative treatments target only dermis collagen, fractional laser treatments target both skin layers simultaneously.
The Fraxel® device was the first fractionated laser to be commercialised, emitting a non-ablative 1550-nm frequency. There are currently devices that use fractional techniques, which are based on erbium: YAG wavelengths for shallow therapies and CO2 lasers for further ablative therapies.

How do Fraxel Laser Facial Treatments Work?
A fundamental grasp of the structure of the skin is essential to comprehend how Fraxel facial laser treatment works. Skin is made up of three layers: the epidermis which is the top layer; the dermis which is the middle layer; and the subcutaneous layer or known as the fat layer which is the deepest layer of the skin.
Melanocytes, which produce melanin and are accountable for skin tone, are found in the epidermal layer. The dermal layer is composed of collagen and elastin, which give skin structure, durability, suppleness, and stretchability.
Melanocytes, which produce melanin and are accountable for skin tone, are found in the epidermal layer. The dermal layer is composed of collagen and elastin, which give skin structure, durability, suppleness, and stretchability.
The structure and properties of the epidermis change as a person matures. Because the epidermis thins, imperfections become much more evident, and collagen within the dermal layer progressively depletes, contributing to the production of facial creases, drooping skin, and deep wrinkles.
The epidermal and dermal layers are both targeted by Fraxel laser therapy. It accomplishes this by directing a laser light into the epidermis in hundreds of tiny yet deep rows of therapy. These are referred to as microthermal treatment zones. In each microthermal treatment zones, old coloured epidermis cells are ejected, and collagen infiltration in the dermis induces a reaction that occurs in collagen restructuring and new collagen production.
Using microthermal treatment zones, the Fraxel treatment laser focuses and heals the area aggressively while neighbouring healthy cells stay unharmed and untouched, assisting in wound healing. The Fraxel facial therapy speeds up recovery compared to exposing all tissue in the therapy region to the laser energy.

How Many Kinds of Fraxel Facial Treatments are There?
Fraxel laser treatments are classified into three kinds: Fraxel Re: pair, Fraxel Re: store, and Fraxel Dual. These powerful Fraxel treatment procedures have quickly emerged as one of the top popular ways to achieve lovely skin via skin resurfacing treatment.
4
What exactly is Fraxel Re:pair?
The most invasive of the three Fraxel facial laser treatments is Fraxel Re: pair. It is a damaging laser because it is a fractional CO2 or ablative laser. It works by sending a powerful light wavelength to almost any portion of the face, vaporising tiny pillars of skin and replacing them with fresh collagen and elastin fibres, resulting in a revitalizing impact.
This kind of technology is typically used by doctors to treat scarring and creases, but it can also be utilized to treat photodamage, sun exposure, and textural restoration.
Fraxel Re:pair is used to treat:
- Sunspots and age spots - Skin colour and suppleness are uneven. - Deep wrinkles and lines - Hyperpigmentation - Scarring (acne scarring, surgery scars, and traumatic scar tissue) - Melasma - Pre-cancerous tumours
Benefits of Fraxel Re:pair:
- Smoother, younger-looking skin - Deep creases and wrinkles have been reduced. - Age spots can be reduced or eliminated. - Skin tone uniformity - Skin that is narrower - Quick outcomes that continue to increase over time - Long-term consequences - When compared to standard lasers, there is lesser recovery time.
Fraxel Re: pair will need some time to recuperate. Clients can anticipate skin redness, inflammation, and scabbing for roughly a week. There may also be occasional pinpoint haemorrhage and seeping, which will necessitate trauma care. Following wound care, a thin coating of cream will be administered.
Rehabilitation may differ from person to person but it is recommended that you wait 5-7 days before getting back to work or resuming regular routines. It is critical to avoid sunlight for one week while recuperating to enable the epidermis to recover correctly.
One round of the 30-45 minutes process is typically sufficient to achieve the best outcomes. Laser professionals will examine your requirements and provide a treatment regimen tailored to specific skin objectives.

What is Fraxel Re:store?
Fraxel Re:store is a non-destructive technique that uses a fractionated Erbium laser to treat only a portion of the epidermis. It heats the epidermis and stimulates collagen formation by using a 1550 nm frequency.
The Re: store, with exception of Re: pair, does not vaporise the natural skin surface layer. On the contrary, Fraxel Re:pair removes tissue while Re:store electrically warms tissue. As a result, the Re: store technique is a milder treatment option with minimum recovery time.
Because Re: pair is much more forceful, it is better suited for badly damaged skin, whereas Re: store is better suited for addressing modest wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and structural defects.
Fraxel Re:store is used to treat:
- Wrinkles and light to medium lines - Spots of brown - Skin discolouration and sun exposure - Rosacea and acne scarring - Enhanced skin colour - Enhanced skin suppleness
While this form of Fraxel laser facial is typically harmless, it can lead to inflammation, skin redness, and bruises all around the treatment area. These ought to go away in one week. Re:store, as a less invasive procedure, can reduce fine wrinkles and even skin texture with less recovery time that is no more than a day.
Doctors advise patients to have a 30-minute appointment every fortnight for 4-6 sessions to have the best benefits.

Fraxel Dual
The Fraxel Dual-beam is the most recent iteration of Fraxel lasers. It extends beyond the basic Fraxel Re:store treatment process and bridges the gap between the two. It integrates the effects of destructive lasers with the softer advantages of non-ablative lasers. It employs two distinct light waves: one for surface colouring and another for deeper penetration to act on wrinkles and fine lines.
One frequency used in this light-based laser treatment is the 1550 nm Erbium, which is quicker and less productive than previous generations. This wavelength is widely used to treat acne scars, surgery scarring, the appearance of wrinkles, pore diameter, and textural improvements.
The next energy in this Fraxel laser treatment is a Thulium 1927nm - a superficial pulse that is effective at accurately eliminating pigmentation areas while causing less damage to the adjacent tissue. This frequency is often used to treat hyperpigmentation (especially sun exposure), brown patches, and even certain instances of melasma.
This type of Fraxel laser treatment, an additional non-ablative technology, provides a mild technique for skin renewal. While Re: pair is good at tackling a variety of skin conditions, the Fraxel Dual laser is intended to focus on and minimise wrinkles, scars, and hyperpigmentation. This type of therapy is also increasingly prevalent in younger people.
Fraxel Dual is used to treat:
- Ageing or sun spots - Scars from acne - Wrinkles and fine lines - Photo-ageing - The general lacklustre appearance and rough texture of the face
Benefits of Fraxel Dual laser:
- Skin colour and textural improvement - Profound lines and creases have been reduced. - Age marks can be reduced or eliminated. - Acne scarring and surgery scars have decreased in appearance.
In comparison to Re: store, the Dual's operational characteristics provide more adequate care for more severe skin conditions. This type of Fraxel laser has the following benefits over Re: store:
- Fewer procedures are required thanks to an enhanced Erbium 1550 nm laser. - The beam's cooling approach makes the process more pleasant by limiting any scorching or pain. - More exact therapy - Stronger treatment to boost collagen synthesis
Inflammation and redness of the skin are common in the initial 2-3 days after recuperation well before the skin turns brown as if scorched. There is no sign of bleeding, oozing, or need for specific wound management. You simply need to stay out of the sun as the skin recovers. Skin peeling may occur for 2-3 days when the repaired regions are replenished by the fresh, softer epidermis with healthy skin cells.
In most cases, downtime lasts 3-7 days and yields excellent outcomes.

What are the Side Effects of Undergoing Fraxel Facial Laser?
Most individuals appear to handle Fraxel laser facial treatment well. Shaving with a razor or applying natural cosmetics can be performed immediately following therapy.
Based on the condition of the skin and therapy, patients can usually go back to work immediately after therapy or the next day. Among the risks and adverse reactions that may develop following severe or occlusive Fraxel facial laser therapy include:
- Excessive scaling, peeling of the skin and crusting as well. - Inflammation can last up to a week following therapy and can be alleviated by administering a cold compress at a 10-minute interval during the initial 24 hours. - Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation is much more likely in people who have had melasma. - Acne, herpes simplex, microbial, and fungal illnesses - Dermatitis caused by contact
While Fraxel facial treatments can be used to treat various issues on the skin that stem from ageing and sun exposure but its side effects, if not done by a professional, can be detrimental to the skin. Not to mention that each Fraxel laser facial treatment is specific to treat different skin issues so it may not address all of your concerns in a single treatment.

FAQ
Is Fraxel facial an invasive laser facial therapy?
No, the Fraxel laser facial treatment is a non-invasive procedure that can treat pigmentation in the dermis and epidermis layers of the skin but it can be categorised as ablative and non-ablative Fraxel laser treatments that penetrate deep into the skin or just the superficial layer of the skin.
Who is suited to undergo the C6 Good Skin Laser Facial?
This laser treatment is suited for people with skin ageing and hyperpigmentation issues. It can also be used on most skin types and skin tones to give a bright and even skin tone.
How many sessions are needed to remove all pigmentation from the face?
The number of sessions for the C6 Good Skin Laser Facial varies for each patient due to the type, colour and depth of skin pigmentation. The usual number of sessions to remove shallow pigmentation such as sunspots and age spots can range between 3 to 6 sessions. For deeper and darker pigmentation, almost 12 sessions are needed to completely remove the trace of pigmentation.
Is there a long recovery period after the C6 Good Skin Laser Facial?
Unlike Fraxel treatments which require a longer downtime, the C6 Good Skin Laser Facial does not need you to allocate a long recovery period. Most customers have reported having gone back to work almost immediately after the treatment.
What happens if I experience skin reddening after the C6 Good Skin Laser Facial?
This is a common and normal side effect after any laser facial therapy. To ensure you feel comfortable, do apply a generous amount of moisturising cream on the face to reduce skin redness and dryness. Remember to apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect your skin from sun damage thus decreasing the chances of redness and skin dryness. Do not opt to go for any other facial treatment which includes micro-needling, chemical peeling, laser hair removal for the face and other skin resurfacing treatments. Try to use a gentle cleanser to wash your face.
