Fraxel Lasers: Advanced Technology for Skin Rejuvenation
Fraxel lasers represent a cutting-edge approach to skin rejuvenation, offering targeted solutions for various skin concerns. These treatments utilize fractional laser technology to address common issues such as fine lines, wrinkles, acne scars, surgical scars, and uneven skin tone.
By creating micro-injuries in the skin, Fraxel lasers stimulate collagen production, promoting the growth of healthy skin cells and improving skin texture.
What Are the Different Types of Fraxel Lasers?
There are several types of Fraxel lasers, each tailored to specific skin issues:
Fraxel Re:store
This non-ablative laser uses a 1,550nm erbium glass wavelength to target deeper skin layers without removing the outer skin layer. It’s effective for treating fine to moderate wrinkles, acne scars, and pigmentation issues, offering minimal downtime.
Fraxel Re:pair
An ablative fractional CO₂ laser operating at a 10,600nm wavelength, Fraxel re:pair removes the outer skin layer to address more severe skin damage, including deep wrinkles and pronounced scars. This treatment typically requires a longer recovery period due to its intensity.
Fraxel Dual
Combining two wavelengths—1,550nm and 1,927nm—Fraxel Dual targets both superficial and deeper skin concerns. The 1,550nm wavelength addresses texture issues like wrinkles and scars, while the 1,927nm wavelength focuses on pigmentation and sun damage. This dual approach allows for comprehensive skin rejuvenation with moderate downtime.
Fraxel Re:fine
The gentlest of the Fraxel lasers, Re:fine is designed for early signs of aging and minor skin imperfections. It’s suitable for treating fine lines, superficial pigmentation, and improving overall skin tone and texture with minimal to no downtime.

- Unharmed surrounding tissue for gentler treatment and quicker healing.
- Collagen stimulation to enhance skin texture and promote healthy cell growth.
- Effective treatment for fine lines, wrinkles, and uneven skin tone.

- Duration: 30 to 60 minutes in a luxurious private treatment area.
- Comfort: A topical anesthetic is applied to reduce discomfort.
- Sensations: Patients report a warm, prickling feeling during the procedure.
- Recovery: Temporary redness and swelling; most patients resume normal activities within a week.
Who Should Consider Fraxel Laser Treatments?
Fraxel laser treatments are suitable for individuals aiming to improve various skin concerns. Ideal candidates include those who:
- Seek to reduce fine lines and wrinkles
- Wish to address sun damage and pigmentation issues
- Aim to diminish acne scars
- Desire a more even skin tone
- Are in good overall health
- Have realistic expectations about treatment outcomes
However, individuals with certain medical conditions, active skin infections, or a history of poor wound healing should consult with our experts before beginning treatment.
For those dealing with precancerous lesions such as actinic keratosis, Fraxel lasers offer a proactive approach by targeting and removing these lesions, potentially preventing further skin damage. The treatment’s ability to stimulate new collagen production aids in maintaining skin health and resilience over time.

The Fraxel Laser Experience at Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique
At Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique in Houston, the Fraxel laser experience begins with a consultation to determine the most effective treatment plan. The treatment takes place in a comfortable, private room and lasts between 30 and 60 minutes.
Before starting, a topical anesthetic is applied to ensure patient comfort, as the procedure itself may cause a mild, warm, prickling sensation. The esthetician then applies a gel layer to the skin and uses the Fraxel handpiece to gently direct laser energy in precise bursts, targeting the skin to promote renewal and rejuvenation.
The Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique team provides personalized care and guidance throughout the Fraxel journey.
Preparing for Your Fraxel Laser Treatment
Before undergoing a Fraxel laser treatment, it is essential to prepare adequately to optimize results and minimize risks. Consulting with an aesthetic provider at Mirror Mirror Beauty Boutique will help determine the best approach for your specific skin concerns, such as acne scars or uneven skin tone.
Discontinuing medications or supplements that may increase bleeding risk and limiting sun exposure are necessary steps. These preparations help the treated skin respond effectively to stimulate collagen production and improve skin texture.
