Introduction
Frax 1550
Reducing the appearance of scars, wrinkles, and fine lines can be difficult. Numerous topical solutions may not yield the results you are looking for, feeling like a waste of time and money. But there is an innovative treatment available that will not only give you astonishing results for your skin but also restore your confidence. The Frax 1550, or the “Frax Laser”, is a fractional laser used to resurface and rejuvenate the skin. This non-ablative treatment uses fractionated, or tiny fractions, of powerful laser beams to stimulate collagen production while also promoting rapid healing. Increased collagen production improves the appearance of scars, fine lines and wrinkles, and overall skin texture. If you are considering Frax 1550 in the New Jersey area, come and see the team at Geria Dermatology. Find out how our providers can help make you look and feel your best with a Frax 1550 treatment today.
Our practice is conveniently located to serve Frax 1550 patients in Rutherford, Verona, Bergen, and Essex Counties.
What is Frax 1550?
The Frax 1550 Laser is a very effective type of skin resurfacing technology. This innovative tool is a fractional non-ablative laser with high clinical efficiency to allow for more powerful skin rejuvenation by creating tiny columns of energy in the skin thereby eliminating old pigmented cells and stimulating new collagen.
This unique technology allows the pulse time and energy to be set independently so the width and depth of thermal damage can be controlled. This allows the procedure to be customized to each patient’s unique needs to minimize damage and maximize results. Combined with the built-in SoftCool air cooling system and magnetic motion roller, the smart design of the Frax 1550 laser helps to ensure patient comfort and precision control during the entire procedure.

What’s the
First Step?
The first step to getting Frax 1550 at Geria Dermatology is to book a consultation with one of our providers. During this session, you will discuss your goals and examine the problematic areas, which the provider can then assess. It is important to share any crucial medical history or health issues with our providers so that we can give you correct information regarding whether Frax 1550 is right for you, and how it can benefit you. If you are interested in treating multiple areas, this is also a good thing to discuss during consultation.
Once your personalized treatment plan is created, our Patient Coordinator will help you schedule your procedure date and provide you with instructions to follow that will help you achieve optimal results.
What to expect on the day of a Frax 1550 laser treatment
Frax 1550 is a minimal downtime procedure performed in our New Jersey locations. After the skin is cleansed, a topical anesthetic is applied to the skin for 30-60 minutes. Once the skin is ready, the treatment will take 30-60 minutes depending on the area treated. There is mild discomfort and warmth during the treatment as the energy is applied. After the treatment, the skin is cooled and sunscreen is applied. Typically a series of four to six treatments are recommended initially spaced approximately one month apart. A yearly maintenance treatment may also be recommended.
Your provider will give you a list of post-treatment instructions to help you care for your skin after the treatment, and get the most out of your results.
Frax 1550 Recovery
It is recommended to minimize sun exposure after treatment to enhance results. The skin may remain pink for a day or two after the treatment depending on the settings used.
Applying sunscreen or wearing a hat is ideal for going out in the sun. Staying hydrated and using a recommended type of moisturizer will increase the lifespan of your new supple skin.
Your provider can advise on the best type of topical ointment if you experience any redness or irritation after your procedure. There is little to no pain from the treatment itself, but a cool compress or ice pack can help alleviate any uncomfortable sensation on your skin.
