FRAXEL DUAL LASER

Renew your skin’s natural glow with one of the most advanced rejuvenation treatments available.

At Tahoe Injectables Medical Spa, we offer the Fraxel Dual Laser to safely and effectively refresh your skin from the inside out without surgery or extended downtime. This non-invasive laser targets both the surface and deeper layers of the skin to improve tone, texture, and radiance—revealing a smoother, more youthful complexion with minimal downtime.

The Fraxel Dual Laser is a non-ablative fractional laser treatment used to improve skin texture, tone, and overall appearance. It works by delivering microscopic columns of laser energy into the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact, which stimulates the body’s natural healing response and promotes new collagen production.

The device uses two wavelengths (1550 nm and 1927 nm) to target different layers of the skin

  • 1927 nm (Thulium Laser): Superficial targeting. It effectively treats the epidermis, making it ideal for removing actinic keratoses (pre-cancerous spots), treating melasma, sun spots, and improving skin tone and texture.

  • 1550 nm (Erbium Laser): Deep targeting. It penetrates into the dermal layers to treat fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, and surgical scars by stimulating collagen

Benefits of Fraxel Dual

Fraxel Dual helps stimulate your body’s natural collagen production, leading to long-term skin tightening and rejuvenation. Over time, you’ll notice brighter, firmer, and more even skin that continues to improve for months after your treatment. This will stimulate your body’s natural collagen production over the next 3-6 months.

Fraxel Dual is a powerful, collagen-stimulating treatment designed to address:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Sun damage and pigmentation

  • Acne scars and other textural concerns

  • Dull or uneven skin tone

By promoting new collagen and elastin production, Fraxel helps your skin look naturally firmer, brighter, and more refined over time.

What to Expect During Treatment

Before the procedure, a topical numbing cream is applied for comfort. The laser works by creating precise micro-injuries in the skin, which trigger the body’s natural healing process. These controlled treatments replace old, damaged cells with fresh, healthy skin—without harming surrounding tissue.
Most sessions take about 30–45 minutes, depending on the area being treated. You will be red and feel like you have a mild sunburn after the laser.

Recovery and Results

Following treatment, your skin may feel warm and appear pink or slightly swollen—similar to a mild sunburn. Over the next several days, you may notice light flaking as new skin cells emerge. Most patients are comfortable returning to daily activities after 48 hours. You may experience a very fine sandpaper feel to your skin for about a week as your skin continues to heal.

As collagen rebuilds, results continue to improve over the next several months, revealing smoother texture, more even tone, and naturally refreshed skin.

As your skin heals, you’ll see gradual improvements that continue to develop over 3–6 months as collagen renews.
