What to Expect During Your Fraxel Dual Session

Your comfort and safety are our priority. Here’s what happens during a typical treatment:

Your skin is thoroughly cleansed
A topical anaesthetic is applied about an hour before the procedure
The laser session itself usually takes around 40 minutes, depending on the area being treated
Cold air is used during the procedure to help keep you comfortable

Is the Treatment Painful?

Most clients describe a warm, prickling sensation during the procedure. The numbing cream and cooling air help minimise discomfort. After your session, your skin may feel similar to a mild sunburn, which usually settles within a few hours.

How Many Sessions Will I Need?

The number of treatments varies based on your skin’s needs and your desired results. Many people benefit from a series of up to five sessions, spaced about four weeks apart. Visible improvements often begin soon after your first treatment, with optimal results developing over two to three months as your skin naturally heals and renews.

What Happens After Treatment?

Immediately after your session, your skin may appear pink or red and feel warm. You can use makeup to cover any redness. Over the next week or two, your skin may darken slightly and then naturally exfoliate, revealing fresher skin beneath. Moisturising regularly will help manage any dryness or flaking.

Aftercare and Precautions

To protect your results, it’s important to avoid direct sun exposure for at least three months following your last treatment. Always use a high-SPF sunscreen (SPF 50+) and wear a wide-brimmed hat when outdoors.

Possible Side Effects

Most side effects are mild and temporary, including redness, swelling, dryness, or a bronzed appearance. These usually resolve within a few days. Rarely, more serious effects like infection or pigmentation changes can occur. Our team will provide you with detailed aftercare instructions to minimise any risks.
