In this article, we’ll explore Fraxel Dual’s benefits, how it works, who it’s best suited for, and what you can expect from your treatment at Radiance Skincare & Laser Medspa.

How Does Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 Work?

Fraxel Dual 1550/1927 is a fractional laser treatment that uses two wavelengths to target both superficial and deeper layers of the skin. The 1550 wavelength is designed to penetrate deep into the skin to address wrinkles, acne scars, and other textural issues. The 1927 wavelength works on the skin’s surface, tackling pigmentation concerns such as age spots, freckles, and sun damage.

Here’s what you can expect from the Fraxel Dual treatment process:

Consultation

During your Radiance Skincare & Laser Medspa appointment, you will be assessed by an expert and discuss your aesthetic goals in order to create a personalized treatment plan.

Pre – Treatment

A topical numbing cream will be rubbed on the treatment area prior to the procedure to provide comfort during the procedure.

Laser Application

The Fraxel Dual laser delivers precise, controlled energy to the skin in a grid-like pattern, creating microscopic treatment zones. This stimulates the body’s natural healing process, resulting in healthy skin cell regeneration and collagen production.

Post – Treatment

After the procedure, there may be some redness and swelling, similar to a mild sunburn. Generally, these side effects typically subside within a few days, revealing fresher, smoother skin over the following weeks.
