Fraxel Laser and Direct Primary Care (DPC): Precision Skin Renewal, Personalized Support
Fraxel laser can improve your skin if you have acne scars, sun damage, or uneven texture that makes it look dull. DPC makes sure that this cutting-edge treatment is safe and that you get the best care for your skin after the procedure.
What is Fraxel Laser? Fractional resurfacing for bright skin
Fraxel uses fractional laser technology to get rid of scars from surgery and acne.
- Get rid of dark spots and sun spots on your skin.
- Encourage collagen to make the texture smoother.
- Get rid of fine lines and big pores
There are two types: ablative (Fraxel Repair) and non-ablative (Fraxel Dual). They are different in terms of strength and how long it takes for them to heal.
Patients should know this important information:
- Uses: Improves the color, feel, and elasticity of the skin.
- Safety: Low risk; redness and peeling that go away on their own are normal.
- Prices: DPC has clear prices that are usually 15–25% lower than those of medspas.
If you don't take care of yourself properly afterward, you could get:
- Hyperpigmentation, an infection, or redness that lasts too long.
How DPC Improves Your Fraxel Experience
Direct Primary Care (DPC) makes Fraxel treatments better by combining knowledge of skin care with general health care:
1. Complete readiness before treatment
- Examination of the skin: Look at the Fitzpatrick type, how sensitive it is, and how well it is hydrated.
- For skin that is prone to melasma, give hydroquinone. If someone has had herpes before, give them antiviral prophylaxis.
- Changes to your lifestyle: Tell people to avoid the sun, stop smoking, and eat foods that are high in antioxidants.
2. Safety While Getting Medical-Grade Treatment
- Places that are made just for you: Adjust the laser's depth and density based on how your skin responds.
- Pain management: Use topical numbing agents or oral anxiolytics to make you feel better.
- Changes made in real time: Watch how your skin reacts to avoid giving it too much treatment.
3. Taking care of patients after treatment:
- 24/7 access: If you notice swelling, blistering, or pain that you didn't expect, get help right away.
- A personalized recovery kit should include healing creams, growth factor serums, and mineral-based sunscreens.
- Follow-up rules: Every 48 hours, every week, and every month, check in to see how things are going.
Changes in Real Life
- Case 1: Sarah, 30, has acne scars. Sarah's DPC team did three Fraxel Dual sessions, which made her scars 70% smaller.
- Case 2: Michael, who is 50 years old, has sun damage. Michael's DPC provider used Fraxel Repair + PRP to even out the color and texture of his skin.
Fraxel in DPC: Common Questions
- Q: How many times do I need to go?
- A: 3 to 5 for scars and 1 to 2 for dark spots. DPC changes things based on what you want to do.
- Q: How long will the downtime last?
- A: Non-ablative: 3–5 days; ablative: 7–14 days.
- Q: Can Fraxel help with dark spots on the skin?

- Q: Will the results last?
- A: They last a long time, but you need to keep them clean and out of the sun.
