What is recovery like after Fraxel?

What kind of downtime should I expect? Will I need to take time off of work?

It depends on which Fraxel machine you use. For the Fraxel re:fine, you should expect your face to look sunburned for about 3-4 days. Afterward, the skin looks normal. Secondly, if you have a lot of pigment, then pigment will crust and look scabbie for about 5-9 days. This will come off within those days. It does not look horrible but can be noticeable depending on how much pigment you have.
