Fraxel DUAL: Two Wavelengths, Double the Power for Your Skin

Summary

Thinking about Fraxel but not sure if it’s right for you? At Rejuvenation Dermatology in Vancouver, we help patients understand when laser treatments like Fraxel make sense—and when they don’t. Fraxel is a non-invasive option for people looking to address signs of aging, scarring, pigmentation, or textural issues without surgery. It works best when it’s part of a larger skin strategy tailored to your goals, age, and skin type. Whether you’re in your 30s tackling early signs of sun damage or in your 50s looking to soften deep lines, Fraxel may offer the results you want. Contact Rejuvenation Dermatology in Vancouver to schedule your consultation and see if Fraxel fits your skin goals. 

Not Every Laser Is Right for Everyone—But Fraxel Fits Many 

Laser treatments can sound intimidating—and not all of them are appropriate for every skin type or concern. Fraxel stands out because of its balance: it delivers visible results without the risks of deep ablative lasers or the underwhelming outcomes of superficial peels.

At Rejuvenation Dermatology, we find that Fraxel is ideal for patients who want noticeable improvements with minimal downtime. Whether you’re new to laser treatments or upgrading from topical skincare, Fraxel often serves as the missing link between maintenance and transformation. 

You’re a Great Candidate If You Have:

  • Sun Damage or Uneven Pigmentation: Freckles, sun spots, and patchy discolouration respond well to Fraxel’s skin-resurfacing action.
  • Fine Lines or Early Wrinkles: Fraxel stimulates collagen, smoothing early aging signs on the face, neck, and chest.
  • Acne or Surgical Scars: Textural issues from acne or past procedures improve with Fraxel’s collagen-boosting laser energy.
  • Large Pores or Rough Texture: Fraxel enhances skin tone and minimizes pore size, giving skin a smoother feel.

When Fraxel Might Not Be the First Step

Fraxel might not be the best option for patients with:

  • Active Acne Breakouts: It’s better to resolve active inflammation before resurfacing.
  • Severe Sagging: Fraxel tightens to a degree, but sagging or deep folds may need other treatments like RF or surgery.
  • Hyper-Sensitivity or Recent Sunburn: Wait until your skin is calm and protected to reduce risk.

If any of the above sound like you, contact our expert team to determine alternative solutions for your skincare needs!

What Age Is Right for Fraxel?

There’s no perfect age, but here’s how different decades benefit: 

  • 30s: Great for prevention and early correction—fine lines, uneven tone, and early sun damage.
  • 40s–50s: Helps reduce established lines, pigmentation, and skin dullness with consistent, natural-looking results.
  • 60s+: A good alternative to invasive treatments, especially when skin is thinning or more fragile.

Tailored Plans at Rejuvenation Dermatology

Our team doesn’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. Every Fraxel consultation includes a full skin analysis and discussion of your short- and long-term goals. We’ll help you decide how many sessions to consider and whether Fraxel should be paired with other treatments like injectables, skincare, or light therapy.
