Fraxel Dual® Before And After Photos
Fraxel treatments effectively target the surface and deeper layers of your skin for a smoother, younger looking appearance.
We are fortunate to live in a time when technology consistently advances to bring us innovative products and treatments. Fraxel laser treatments are especially effective for skin rejuvenation on the face and other areas. Our menu of services includes Fraxel Dual – designed for specific results.
The secret of stunning outcomes with Fraxel lies in the technology and the skill of the physician. Dr. Bucay uses the device to focus microscopic laser columns, called treatment zones, into the deeper layers of skin (the dermis). Safe and effective, the laser precisely treats problem areas while leaving surrounding tissue unharmed, and stimulates your body to produce more collagen. Through the elimination of targeted cells, skin is rejuvenated as fresh new cells and a more youthful appearance emerge.
Fraxel treatment delivers optimal results that are long-lasting.
What Is Fraxel Dual®?
Fraxel is one of the most advanced cosmetic dermatology treatments currently available. The technology includes a hand-held device that smartly scans your skin to ensure safety and consistent results. The device delivers fractional lasers that penetrate the top layers of skin and stimulates collagen under the skins surface. Meanwhile, it resurfaces the top layer of your skin. This procedure works with your skin’s natural rejuvenation process to smooth wrinkles and minimize the appearance of scars. Many people long to rewind the clock a few years and get back the face they used to have. However, many patients in San Antonio don’t know where to turn.

Now, patients can turn to the Bucay Center for Dermatology and Aesthetics for help.

How Does Fraxel Dual® Work?
The secret of stunning outcomes with Fraxel lies in the technology and the skill of the physician. Dr. Vivian Bucay uses the device to focus microscopic laser columns, called treatment zones, into the deeper layers of skin (the dermis). Fraxel is the original fractional laser treatment that works below the skin’s surface from the top down, addressing imperfections like fine lines, visible photo aging, wrinkles, scarring and age spots.
How Long Does A Fraxel Dual® Treatment Take?
Fraxel treatments usually only take 15-45 minutes and many patients achieve the best results with one to five treatment sessions. While it can take a week to three weeks to see the results, this is because the treatment works with your own skin cells.
What Are The Potential Side Effects of Fraxel Dual®?
The potential side effects of Fraxel Dual® may include:
- Redness
- Swelling
- Scarring
- Blistering
- Acne flareup
- Infection
- Hyperpigmentation
What Results Can I Expect from Fraxel Dual® Treatments?
The Fraxel Dual® laser treatment has little-to-no downtime. After the treatment, performing routine activities, and shaving or applying makeup can be resumed almost immediately.
The Results of the Fraxel Dual® treatment is both immediate and progressive. The peak results will usually be visible in 2 to 3 months, but the skin can continue to improve for up to a year. Each Fraxel treatment will improve skin quality.
