What You Can Expect From Our Portland Fraxel Laser Treatments
Before Your Fraxel Laser Treatment
Before your Fraxel laser treatment, your provider will make sure you know exactly what to expect and how to prepare for your appointment. We suggest that Fraxel treatments be done in packages of 3 treatments about 3-4 weeks apart. Although treatment takes about one hour, you should allow for a 2-hour visit.
During Your Fraxel Laser Treatment
There can be some discomfort during treatment. Our trained providers will apply numbing cream to the area prior to treatment. Some patients choose to take an over-the-counter pain reliever to minimize discomfort. The cold airflow of our new Fraxel Dual Platform is an important factor in making your treatment more comfortable.
After Your Fraxel Laser Treatment
A few hours after your treatment, you may feel a sunburn-like sensation in your treatment area. You can experience swelling and redness, followed by light flaking for 4-7 days as the old skin cells slough off and smooth new skin emerges. The full improvement from Fraxel treatments emerges within 2-3 months after the last treatment in your series.

What Can Fraxel Treatments Do?
