Fraxel® Thulium
Fraxel Thulium laser treatments in New York at PFRANKMD by Dr. Paul Jarrod Frank is a minimally invasive solution for a variety of skin conditions. The innovative technology is designed to target a wide range of skin imperfections, from fine lines and wrinkles to age spots, acne scars, and uneven texture.
What is Fraxel Thulium?
Fraxel Thulium is a specialized laser treatment designed to target superficial skin concerns with precision. It utilizes a 1927nm wavelength, known for its effectiveness in addressing pigmentation issues, sun damage, and uneven skin tone. This non-ablative laser penetrates the skin’s outer layer, promoting skin renewal and leaving the surrounding tissue untouched. The result is a brighter, more even complexion with minimal downtime, making Fraxel Thulium an ideal option for those seeking a gentler yet effective approach to skin rejuvenation.
How Does Fraxel Thulium Work?
Fraxel Thulium Laser treatments harness your body’s regenerative power for skin rejuvenation. Unlike traditional laser therapies, the precise application of fractional lasers creates tiny micro columns below the surface. The non-invasive method results in a healing response of accelerated collagen and elastin production and damaged skin cell turnover.
Ideal Candidates
It is suitable for various skin types and tones, and Dr. Frank can determine if Fraxel Thulium aligns with your specific aesthetic goals during a consultation. Ideal candidates have mild to moderate concerns of wrinkles, hyperpigmentation, and uneven texture. Improvement of acne scars is one of the benefits, but depending on the severity, another laser treatment may be more effective.
Benefits of Fraxel Thulium
• Effectively reduces pigmentation and sun damage for clearer skin
• Utilizes a 1927nm wavelength for precise, superficial skin treatment
• Enhances skin tone and brightens the overall complexion
• Promotes skin renewal with minimal recovery time required
• Offers a gentle yet effective solution for skin rejuvenation
What to Expect During the Fraxel Thulium Procedure
Fraxel Thulium is performed under local anesthesia to ensure patient comfort. The laser handpiece is meticulously applied to the treatment area, delivering controlled thermal energy. Patients may experience a warming sensation during the procedure, but it is generally well-tolerated. The fractional technology targets specific zones of the skin while leaving surrounding tissue intact.
Recovery and Results
Fraxel Thulium offers minimal downtime of a couple of days during recovery. Patients can anticipate some redness and swelling immediately after the treatment, but these effects typically subside within a few days. Makeup can be applied to conceal any temporary changes in skin appearance. Over the following weeks and months, as collagen production is stimulated, the skin becomes smoother, tighter, and more radiant, with continued improvements in texture and tone.

Incredible results with just one session of a combination of lasers to treat pigmentation and sun damage. When this patient came into PFRANKMD, we were excited to help her transform her skin!
We first started with treating her background pigmentation and individual sunspots with the Pico Enlighten, followed by the Fraxel Thulium for both deep and superficial sun damage from years of sun exposure.
Removing sun damage not only makes you look younger, but also helps with the overall health and quality of the skin by helping to prevent non-melanoma skin cancer.
Treatment performed by Registered Nurse Jennifer Schroder
Many men carry their sun damage on their scalp, particularly if they have a receding hair line. This is an area that can sweat off sunscreen and is prone to sunburn.
Here we are using the Fraxel Thulium to treat sunspots and pre-cancerous lesions. The Fraxel laser technology does not destroy hair-baring areas, so we can effectively treat the scalp area.
This laser resurfacing pro-aging treatment has been proven to remove pre-cancerous lesions and subsequently improve the overall health of the skin.
At PFRANKMD, we offer the entire Fraxel laser line as well as customized treatments for each patient based on their specific needs.
