It is always interesting to hear about skin treatment experiences of other patients. Jennifer Scruby, a writer at Lucky Magazine wrote an article back in December (2012) about her Fraxel Dual laser skin treatment.
She reported that her friends noticed a positive difference in her skin even though she did not get a face lift. One of her friends decided to also follow suit and schedule an appointment.
A major point that she emphasizes is that the laser treatment actually changes your skin by creating new elastin and collagen fibers.
How Fraxel Dual Works
Fraxel Dual has two energy wavelength modes:
(1) 1950nm
(2) 1927nm
These are longer wavelengths than what many other lasers have. This means that they will not scatter and become absorbed by the melanin that colors your skin. Instead, they will strictly work on the goals of your treatment. This property makes it safe for patients of all ethnic groups.
When Fraxel Dual reaches lower skin layers, its heat will stimulate the formation of new collagen and elastin fibers. As we get older, our ability to create these proteins declines. What Fraxel does is triggers the skin’s wound healing mechanism in order to develop skin firming protein.
After the procedure, most people have a sun burn effect. In most cases, the outer skin layer sheds and younger new skin is revealed. Continuous improvement continues for two to three months.
Other Fraxel Dual Patient Examples
Jennifer’s testimony is consistent with what others have reported. Here are a few examples.
This patient was interested in getting rid of age spots. However, she received other benefits from her treatment procedure including:
(1) reduced pores
(2) smoother texture

Fraxel Dual can also be used as a separate treatment phase following other lasers. For example, the Spectra laser was used on this patient for a gentle exfoliation, almost like a chemical peel. Fraxel Dual then helped clear away brown pigmentation and addressed deeper skin layers for a well rounded laser skin rejuvenation.

Beautifying Your Skin From The Inside Out
Truly refining the surface of your skin is possible by working at the physiological level. Fraxel Dual is certainly one of the best tools for helping women achieve this.
Smooth and glowing skin will surely enhance the effect of foundation and powder and other forms of makeup.
