What Is Fraxel Laser Edmonton?

Fraxel Laser is a fractional, non‑ablative skin resurfacing treatment that creates microscopic treatment zones (MTZs) in the skin. By stimulating your body’s natural healing response and collagen production, Fraxel enhances tone, texture, and overall skin quality while preserving the surrounding tissue for a faster recovery.

How Fraxel Works

  • Fractional Technology: Energy is delivered in a grid‑like pattern, leaving areas of healthy skin untouched to promote quick healing.
  • Targeted Treatment: Micro‑columns of laser energy trigger collagen remodeling and accelerate skin cell turnover.
  • Non‑Ablative: The outer skin layer remains intact, so recovery is typically faster than with fully ablative lasers.
  • DUAL system utilizes two wavelengths for targeted treatment:
    • 1550 nm wavelength: Targets deeper layers of skin to treat acne scars, wrinkles, and deep lines effectively.
    • 1927 nm wavelength: Targets superficial skin layers, ideal for improving pigmentation, sun damage, and overall skin tone.

Fraxel Laser Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fraxel laser resurfacing and how does it work?

Fraxel laser uses fractional technology to create microscopic columns of thermal energy beneath the skin’s surface. These controlled micro‑injuries stimulate the body’s natural healing response and boost collagen production. Because only a fraction of the skin is treated at a time, surrounding healthy tissue remains intact, allowing for faster recovery and visible rejuvenation.
Fraxel is effective for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, softening acne or surgical scars, evening out sun‑damage and age spots, improving melasma and hyperpigmentation, refining enlarged pores, and enhancing overall skin tone and texture. It suits individuals seeking a non‑surgical option to refresh their complexion.
Traditional ablative lasers remove the entire surface layer of skin, leading to longer healing times. Fraxel’s fractional approach targets only small portions of skin in each pass, stimulating regeneration while leaving surrounding tissue untouched. This results in noticeable improvements with less downtime and reduced risk of complications.
The price typically ranges between about $500 and $1,500 per session, depending on the area treated. Most people benefit from three to five treatments spaced four to six weeks apart. Your practitioner will recommend a personalized plan based on your skin’s needs and desired results.
  • Avoid tanning, sunbeds, and self‑tanners for at least two weeks. Discontinue use of retinoids, chemical exfoliants, or bleaching agents a few days prior, unless otherwise instructed.
  • Do not schedule waxing, chemical peels, or microdermabrasion within a week of your session.
  • Arrive with clean, makeup-free skin and inform your provider about any medications or supplements you are taking.
  • Before treatment, your clinician will cleanse your skin and apply a topical numbing cream to minimize discomfort.
  • During the session, the handpiece is passed over the targeted area, delivering fractional laser pulses.
  • You may feel a warm, prickling sensation or a slight snapping sensation, similar to that of a rubber band. Most clients tolerate the procedure well with the topical anaesthetic.
