How Does Fraxel Laser Work?
Fraxel works by creating tiny laser pulses deep in your skin. These tiny pulses kick-start your body’s natural healing process, boosting collagen and encouraging fresh skin cells to grow. The result? Healthier, clearer, and younger-looking skin without harsh downtime.
What Does Fraxel Laser Treat?
Fraxel laser is a highly versatile, non-surgical skin resurfacing treatment that targets a broad range of skin concerns with minimal downtime. At Albany Cosmetic and Laser Centre in Edmonton, Fraxel is commonly used to treat acne scars, sun damage, melasma, fine lines, enlarged pores, uneven skin texture, and hyperpigmentation. It’s especially ideal for patients seeking visible skin rejuvenation without aggressive peels or surgical procedures. Whether you’re addressing early signs of aging or looking to improve overall skin tone and clarity, Fraxel is a safe, effective solution for men and women of all skin types.

Fraxel Laser Treatment Vibes: What to Expect During Treatment
Your Fraxel journey starts with a quick chat to understand your skin goals and concerns. Then, we gently cleanse your skin and apply a numbing cream to keep you comfortable throughout the session. Next, the Fraxel laser is smoothly guided across targeted areas, sending tiny laser pulses into your skin to kick-start collagen growth and renewal. You might notice mild redness or warmth right after, but this calms down in a few days.
You’ll start seeing your glow-up within a week, with the best results showing over the next few months as your skin renews. Our team makes sure you get fresh, natural-looking skin that’s beautifully balanced and totally you.

Your skin might stay a bit red and sensitive (like a mild sunburn) for about 5-7 days, but it fades quickly as your skin heals.
