What Is Fraxel DUAL?
At Laser & Skin Surgery Center of Pennsylvania, we are proud to offer the greatest treatments to improve the quality of your skin. The Fraxel DUAL system is an effective solution to correct numerous types of skin irregularities, such as fine lines, wrinkles, sun damage, scars, stretch marks, and uneven skin tone and texture. Fraxel DUAL offers two treatment modes with different lasers to effectively target not only the skin's outer surface but also to penetrate deep into the dermal layers of the skin to stimulate collagen production and rejuvenation. To learn more about this revolutionary solution to some of the most common skin concerns, contact our Devon, PA practice to schedule a consultation.
How Does Fraxel DUAL Work?
At your consultation, we will assess your skin to determine the best treatment plan for your concerns and goals, including which of the two laser modes will be used. When you come for your Fraxel DUAL treatment, you will lie back comfortably in one of our treatment chairs while your treatment is performed. A numbing cream will be applied to your skin to help reduce any discomfort you may feel during the treatment. The handpiece will then be glided across the treatment areas in different directions. Most procedures take 10 – 20 minutes, depending on the treatment areas. You may feel a slight prickly or warm feeling during the treatment and experience some redness and peeling for a few day afterward. To help soothe the skin, a cool compress can be applied to the treatment area.

Fraxel® DUAL Reviews
I've had a few services done here, with my most recent being a fraxel laser treatment – my first ever major laser treatment!Firstly, the front desk staff is so freaking sweet. Your first intro to any biz is always a huge indicator of how your experience will go and the check-in/check-out process is always so easy and the team there are so warm and accommodatingStephanie is my go-to for all things aesthetic and mole concerns – she is amazing with scoping out skin issues. (I could go on about her forever, just trust her!)But my more recent experience was with Dr. Wang and I loved him/the experience! I think with any laser treatment, it's important to trust the practice and the provider. Lasers are no joke and I have researched many horror stories. But you can immediately tell Dr. Wang and his medical assistant Nelly are so passionate about the services they provide. I love seeing someone who really walks you through and educates you on the treatment and offers an ear to listen to any questions and really answers them. Dr. Wang is so gentle in his personal delivery and really easy to talk to. Once he goes into laser-mode though you can tell he's meticulous and in the zone and really looks out for the treatment and care given. I loved the fraxel even though it was *spicy* (be prepared) but they do numb you really well to prep.Overall, the location is spotless, beautiful and the providers are amazing. It's a team that really *cares* and that makes all the difference, you know?
Updating my review from two years ago...Dr. Wang and his staff are still as fabulous as ever. After a consult about my skin and concerns, we decided to try the LaseMD Ulta & I could not be happier. My face was clear and glowing after & I will be making a follow up appointment for a 2nd treatment. Thank you Dr. Wang & his lovely assistant Hunter. The front desk staff is always so warm and welcoming as well. The office is beautiful, just a wonderful experience all around! Ladies...there's a new cosmetic derm in town. Dr. Wang is the real deal. I love a laser and he's got all the latest gadgets. And he's done all the research and trained with the best in NYC. The office is beautiful, sparkling clean and has parking. I got a fraxel and my face is GLOWING. Dr. Wang's assistant Nelly is just as wonderful as he is. Already planning my next visit to get my redness zapped. AND he does injectables. Run don't walk....
Patient oriented dermatologist-laser specialist - Dr. Wang listened to my concerned and thoroughly explained all the options including lasers to help treat my condition. He is a specialist in laser technologies and understands what can and cannot be achieved. Since he is a dermatologist, he helped me with my rash as well during the visit.
This office is fantastic. I’ve been here a few times for Botox and laser treatments and the entire experience is always wonderful from check-in to check-out. Dr. Wang delivers excellent results and helps me look like a well-rested, natural version of myself. The staff is friendly and efficient.
Everyone from the front desk staff, the assistant to Dr. Wang was so friendly and professional. I am very happy with my Botox and laser therapy results and plan on returning when needed. 10/10 would recommend.

Am I a Candidate for the Fraxel DUAL?
The Fraxel DUAL is designed for anyone who is unsatisfied with their skin's appearance. If you have sun-damaged skin, age spots, acne scars, fine lines and wrinkles, pigmentation, or redness troubles, this treatment can be needed to improve these imperfections. Also, it works wonders for patients who have rough texture, scaly patches, or other irregularities. It is important to be aware that there is downtime associated with these laser therapy. Some patients, depending on their skin condition, may need as much as 2 weeks for recovery.
How long do results last?
Treatment results will vary patient-to-patient. Visible results may be present up to 5 years following treatment with proper skin health maintenance.
How many treatments would I need?
The number of treatments required to obtain optimal results will vary depending on skin type, degree of treatment required, etc. Generally, patients who choose Fraxel can expect to receive 3 – 5 treatments with 2 – 4 weeks in between treatments. Results are both immediate and progressive with optimal improvement at about 2 to 3 months. This structured treatment plan allows for appropriate healing and production of collagen and elastin.
How should I take care of my skin after skin resurfacing treatment with Fraxel DUAL?
Our skin care experts recommend avoiding direct sun exposure for at least 3 months after your last treatment. We also advise wearing a broad-spectrum sunscreen of SPF 30 or higher or a wide-brimmed hat when you're in the sun.
Does skin resurfacing treatment with Fraxel DUAL hurt?
Most patients report feeling an increased sensation of heat during the skin resurfacing treatment. Our aestheticians can apply topical anesthesia before the procedure to help minimize discomfort. Fraxel DUAL also features an advanced cooling system that blows cold air on the treatment area during the procedure. After the treatment, the skin may feel like it’s sunburned, but this usually diminishes in 1 to 3 hours.
