What is Fraxel Dual?
This non-invasive application is used to treat aging spots, skin tone problems, sun damage, fine and deep wrinkles, acne scars or general skin problems. The Fraxel Dual wavelength system is a skin resurfacing technology that can take the clock back for the skin, with the least discomfort, regardless of the person’s age or skin tone.
How does Fraxel Dual work?
Fraxel Dual, differing from its counterparts, uses a noval laser wavelength to help minimize discomfort and treat signs of aging in the whole body, with minimal discomfort. It aims to effectively make the skin surface smoother, and differing from similar ablative treatments, it offers a younger looking skin with a shorter healing time. Moreover, treatment is applicable to various parts of the body in a single treatment session. Fraxel treatment is an outpatient treatment and does not require much time. It is completed in half an hour.
