How should I protect and care for my skin post-treatment?

After your Fraxel® DUAL 1550/1927 treatment, it’s important to protect your skin by avoiding direct sun exposure and applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen regularly. Keep the treated area clean, avoid using harsh skincare products, and follow any aftercare instructions provided by your technician. You may experience some redness and peeling, so be gentle with your skin and allow it to heal naturally.
