The Fraxel@ Dual Laser is a revolutionary non-ablative fractional resurfacing laser that's expertly designed to rejuvenate and enhance the appearance of your skin. It employs two distinct laser wavelengths, specifically the 1550nm and the 1927nm, to target and address various skin concerns.
This cutting-edge technology is highly effective in treating issues like pigmentation problems, freckles, age spots, and lesions resulting from sun damage. As the laser reaches the deeper layers of the skin, it stimulates the natural production of collagen and elastin.

Before the procedure, a numbing cream is applied to the treatment area 40 minutes prior to the procedure. The laser device is then carefully maneuvered over the targeted area, delivering precise fractional microbeams of laser energy into the skin.This process creates tiny controlled columns of injury, triggering the skin's innate healing process. This, in turn, encourages the production of collagen, leading to improved skin texture, reduced wrinkles, and the resolution of other skin concerns.
The two distinct wavelengths of the Fraxel Dual Laser are tailored to address specific skin concerns. The 1550nm wavelength penetrates deep into the skin, effectively addressing issues like acne scarring and uneven skin texture. Meanwhile, the 1927nm wavelength focuses on the skin's surface, effectively treating pigmentation irregularities and sun damage.
Addresses hyperpigmented areas and sun damage for a visibly more balanced skin tone and diminished discolouration.
Minimizes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles
Effectively alleviates redness and flushing concerns
Enhances skin elasticity and refines its texture
Shrinks the size of enlarged pores
The procedure is notably swift
Prior to the procedure, an anaesthetic cream is applied to the treatment area for 40 minutes. The handheld laser device will then be applied to the treatment area, delivering precise, fractional microbeams of laser energy into the skin.
During the procedure patients may experience sensations such as heat, tingling, or mild discomfort. The Fraxel Dual Laser system is equipped with a cooling mechanism that maintains skin comfort and reduces the risk of thermal damage to the surrounding skin.
The duration of the Fraxel Dual Laser treatment can vary based on the size of the treatment area and the specific skin concerns being addressed. Typically, treatments last approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
Following the treatment, patients may experience sensations akin to mild sunburn for 24 hours, with some swelling persisting for approximately two to three days.
Dual Wavelengths:
The Fraxel Dual Laser harnesses the power of two distinct laser wavelengths (1550nm and 1927nm) to target specific skin concerns. The 1550nm wavelength penetrates deep into the skin, stimulating collagen production and improving skin texture. In contrast, the 1927nm wavelength focuses on the skin's surface, effectively treating pigmentation and sun damage.
Fractional Technology:
The Fraxel Dual Laser employs a fractional approach, delivering precise, fractional microbeams of laser energy into the skin. This creates controlled columns of thermal injury while leaving surrounding tissue unaffected. This approach promotes faster healing and minimises downtime.
Customisable Treatment:
Fraxel Dual Laser treatments can be tailored to address a variety of skin concerns and are suitable for various skin types and tones. The treatment can target specific areas of concern or cover larger areas, depending on individual needs.
