Most of us wish we could slow down the effects aging has on our looks and maybe even get a few years back in the process. Fraxel® is proven laser technology that can help reverse the visible effects of aging, naturally helping you look as young as you feel. With Fraxel, change isnt drastic or scary
its you, just younger.
The Fraxel re:store laser has captured the national spotlight as a top new advance in the field of skin rejuvenation, with media coverage in Health, Prevention, CNN, and CBS, to name a few. It offers a fractional approach to laser skin resurfacing, leaving microscopic islands of healthy untreated skin between the treated areas.
As a result it can impressively repair aging, scarred, discolored and sun-damaged skin with minimal to no downtime. The creation of microscopic wounds results in tiny areas of collagen regeneration which gradually restore the skin, both on the surface and at depth, similar to altering the individual dots that make up a photograph in a newspaper or magazine.
New epidermal skin develops immediately, within 24 hours. This process of skin repair involves some mild bronzing of the skin and some mild exfoliation of the skin. Moisturizer helps with this and the use of sunscreen after treatment is strongly recommended.
You will experience a mild sunburn sensation for about an hour and then virtually no discomfort. The skin will have a pinkish tone for five to seven days. This is a normal sign that the skin is healing deeply, that dermal tissue is being repaired, and there is good blood circulation. Swelling is minimal and generally resolves in two to three days. You may apply makeup or shave after the treatment. Typically patients find they can go back to work soon after treatment or the next day.
