What is Fraxel Thulium?
How Does Fraxel Thulium Work?
Fraxel Thulium Laser treatments harness your body’s regenerative power for skin rejuvenation. Unlike traditional laser therapies, the precise application of fractional lasers creates tiny micro columns below the surface. The non-invasive method results in a healing response of accelerated collagen and elastin production and damaged skin cell turnover.
Ideal Candidates
It is suitable for various skin types and tones, and Dr. Frank can determine if Fraxel Thulium aligns with your specific aesthetic goals during a consultation. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate concerns of wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture. Improvement of acne scars is one of the benefits, but depending on the severity, another laser treatment may be more effective.

What to Expect During the Fraxel Thulium Procedure
Fraxel Thulium is performed under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The laser handpiece is meticulously applied to the treatment area, delivering controlled thermal energy. Patients may experience a warming sensation during the procedure, but it is generally well-tolerated. The fractional technology targets specific zones of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact.
Recovery and Results
Fraxel Thulium offers minimal downtime of a couple of days during recovery. Patients can anticipate some redness and swelling immediately after the treatment, but these effects typically subside within a few days. Makeup can be applied to conceal any temporary changes in skin appearance. Over the following weeks and months, as collagen production is stimulated, the skin becomes smoother, tighter, and more radiant, with continued improvements in texture and tone.
