Are you seeking a way to reverse the signs of ageing while maintaining a natural appearance? Are you concerned about long recovery times after cosmetic procedures? Fraxel laser skin resurfacing in Melbourne, often referred to as Fraxel laser treatment Melbourne, offers a popular non-ablative facial rejuvenation procedure that effectively reduces the signs of ageing while preserving a natural look.
Fraxel laser can address various minor facial imperfections, including fine lines, age spots, uneven skin tone or texture, and sun-damaged skin, with a brief recovery period of just 3-5 days. Additionally, laser skin resurfacing in Melbourne can be utilised to diminish the appearance of mild to moderate acne scars.
Fraxel Laser in Melbourne Before and After Results.
What is a Fraxel Laser?
Fraxel laser in Melbourne is a highly effective method for rejuvenating the skin while preserving its natural appearance. This advanced technology is both non-ablative and fractional. Non-ablative implies that it does not damage the skin's surface, and fractional means it treats only a "fraction" of your skin, leaving the surrounding areas untouched. This results in a shorter recovery time.
How does Fraxel laser treatment in Melbourne work?
The non-ablative skin resurfacing laser heats the skin tissue in a controlled manner without harming the skin's surface, stimulating the production of new collagen. Collagen is a fibrous protein that provides the skin with elasticity and suppleness. By generating new collagen, it enhances the texture, tightness, and colour of the skin. Laser skin resurfacing is a highly sought-after procedure for improving the appearance of wrinkles, scars, and sun damage.
Benefits of Fraxel Laser.
The Fraxel laser can address a variety of minor facial imperfections, including:
- Age spots.
- Hyperpigmentation, such as melasma.
- Freckles.
- Fine lines.
- Sun-damaged skin.
- Uneven skin tone or texture.
- Acne scars.
Unlike treatments that rely on temporary fillers, laser skin resurfacing in Melbourne does not disrupt the skin's natural structure. The ultimate result is a younger, smoother appearance with minimal downtime.

What Types of Lasers are Used for Fraxel Laser Skin Resurfacing?
For non-ablative laser skin resurfacing treatments, we employ the Nordlys Ellipse Frax 1550/Frax 1940, a cutting-edge version of the Fraxel Dual non-ablative fractional laser by Candela (Made in the USA). The combination of these two wavelengths (1550 and 1940) enables the laser to target both superficial and deep skin layers, making it suitable for treating a wide array of skin conditions.
What Happens Before Fraxel Treatment?
The initial step in Fraxel laser treatment in Melbourne is for one of our specialists to assess the compatibility of your skin for the procedure. Not all skin conditions and types are suitable, and an alternative laser may be more appropriate for your needs. We also take standardised clinical photographs of the skin area to be treated for before and after comparisons.
How is it Performed?
Laser skin resurfacing procedures are carried out at QC Skin Cancer & Laser Clinic by qualified cosmetic doctors or extensively trained nurses under the supervision of doctors. Numbing cream is applied to the patient's face one hour before the procedure, and the laser is then administered under a Zimmer cooling machine. The procedure typically lasts around one hour, followed by the application of some topical cream. The patient will experience slightly pink skin with mild swelling but can resume normal activities with strict sun protection measures.
How Do I Look and Feel After Fraxel Laser Treatment?
Recovery from laser resurfacing treatment can take up to two weeks but is usually as short as three to four days before the redness and swelling subside. After recovery, the skin will appear refreshed and rejuvenated. The non-ablative lasers used at QC Skin Cancer & Laser Clinic result in only minor swelling and skin peeling. Our laser skin resurfacing procedures are extremely safe, with minimal side effects and a quick recovery time.

After the treatment, you may notice some temporary side effects including redness, dryness, and darkening of spots. To help with the healing process, our skin care specialist will prescribe you a cream to apply on the treated areas.
