What Is Fraxel Dual Laser Resurfacing?
Fraxel Dual uses two complementary fractional wavelengths:
- 1550 nm targets deep layers for texture, scars, and fine lines.
- 1927 nm focuses on surface pigmentation, sun damage, and discoloration.
The laser creates microscopic treatment zones, leaving surrounding skin intact for quicker healing. This dual approach resurfaces damaged skin while stimulating new collagen and elastin, producing smoother, clearer, and younger-looking skin.
