What is the
Fraxel® Laser treatment?
Fraxel® is the most advanced laser treatment for skin available
in the country. Fraxel® improves skin texture, smoothes
acne scars, improves pigmentation problems such as brown spots
and
reduces fine to moderate lines and wrinkles. Results are immediate
and progressive. Optimal improvements are usually visible within
two to three months.
How does the Fraxel® Laser work?
Fraxel® Laser treatment produces thousands of tiny but
deep columns of treatment in your skin, known as microthermal
treatment zones. This treatment eliminates old epidermal pigmented
cells. It also penetrates deeply into the dermis. Just as important,
though, are the areas of skin the Fraxel® laser leaves
untouched. For every microthermal zone the laser targets and
treats intensively, it leaves the surrounding tissue unaffected
and intact. This “fractional” treatment allows
the skin to heal much faster than if the entire area were treated
at once, using the body’s natural healing process to
create new, healthy tissue to replace skin imperfections.
How
many treatments do I need?
Clinical studies suggest that an effective treatment regimen
is three to five sessions, spaced about four to seven days
apart. However, treatment plans can be very flexible and
effective, even spaced by weeks or months if that best
meets your needs. By design, each treatment session targets
about
15% of the skin’s surface, depending on the clinical
parameters selected.
What happens after the treatment?
Side effects of treatment by Fraxel® laser are minimal
and do not require any downtime. Some patients experience
slight swelling and redness, but this should fade in a day
or two.
