From Fraxel Dual Laser System
The Fraxel DUAL 1550/1927 System is a fractional non-ablative laser device manufactured by Solta Medical that combines two distinct wavelengths to target both deep dermal structures and superficial epidermal issues.
Specifications & Physical Parameters
- Lasers / Wavelengths:
- 1550 nm Erbium Fiber Laser: Penetrates deep into the reticular dermis (up to ~1.4 mm) for structural collagen remodeling and texture improvement.
- 1927 nm Thulium Fiber Laser: Focuses on the superficial epidermis and upper dermis for pigmentation and tone.
- Pulse Energy:
- 1550 nm: 4–70 mJ
- 1927 nm: 5–20 mJ
- Speed: Up to 2,900 Micro-Thermal Zones (MTZs) per second (25% faster than older legacy models)
- Console Dimensions & Weight: 19” x 18” x 18”, weighing 55 lbs (25 kg)
- Electrical Power: 100–240 VAC, <6A @ 120V, <3A @ 240V (Class 4 laser system)
- Technology Features: Utilizes Intelligent Optical Tracking™ and AccuTRAC™ delivery systems.
Clinical Indications
- 1550 nm Focus: Acne scars, surgical scars, periorbital lines, deep wrinkles, and skin texture/elasticity.
- 1927 nm Focus: Solar lentigines (sun spots), age spots, ephelides (freckles), actinic keratosis, melasma, and dyschromia.
- Treated Areas: Face, neck, chest, arms, and hands.
Treatment & Recovery Profile
- Session Duration: Outpatient procedures typically take about 20 to 40 minutes (plus 45–60 minutes for topical numbing cream).
- Recommended Course: Most providers recommend a series of 3 to 5 sessions spaced 4 to 8 weeks apart.
- Downtime & Healing:
- Redness and mild swelling last about 1 to 3 days.
Bronzing and a fine, sandpaper-like texture/flaking appear around days 3 to 5 and resolve by days 5 to 7.
