The Fraxel Re:Store is an FDA-cleared laser that produces thousands of tiny columns of microscopic treatment zones in your skin, leaving the surrounding skin unaffected. This “fractional” treatment approach allows the skin to heal much faster than if the entire surface of the skin was treated at once3. Following each treatment, the body’s natural healing process creates new, healthy tissue to replace skin imperfections.
The Fraxel Dual Wavelength system offers the additional benefit of a second laser wavelength that specifically targets unwanted pigment, leaving the skin tone more even and pleasing to the eye. The Fraxel Re:Store Dual Wavelength system refines the skin in a precisely controlled fashion. The skin will become softer, smoother, and fresher, all with minimal or no downtime!1

What Will I Feel and Look Like After Treatment?
Most patients experience a sunburn-type sensation following the treatment, which can last for 90 minutes. No pain medicine is required. The skin will have a pinkish tone for several days and mild swelling that may last a day or two. These are completely normal side effects that reflect the healing process that is underway. There is no oozing, crusting, or bleeding. Some flaking may occur but extensive peeling is not expected. The skin may develop a bronzed appearance, which may last for several weeks. Moisturizers are helpful post-treatment and the use of sunscreen (30-60 SPF sunblock) is very important.
