Fraxel

Fraxel is a non-invasive laser therapy providing a wide array of treatment options to address many forms of aging, customized to each patient’s needs and concerns, many requiring minimal recovery time. It’s the perfect solution for people who want their skin to look younger, but don’t want to look plastic or fake and can’t afford a lot of time away from work or their social life.

Fraxel is effective on:
Fine lines and wrinkles – like crow’s feet and brow lines
Surface scarring – erasing effects of acne and other scarring
Pigmentation – minimizing the appearance of age spots
Sun damage – helping heal dangerous skin damage
Actinic Keratosis (AK) – a common pre-cancerous skin condition

Procedure

  • You need to arrive about 1-1 ½ hours before your treatment. A technician will cleanse the treatment area and then apply a numbing cream. Then you just relax, read, or listen to music, while the numbing cream takes affect.
  • After you numb for about an hour,  a thin layer of gel will be applied to help the laser rollers slide evenly over the face.
  • The treatment takes 20 to 25 minutes for a full face and feels a little like a “pins and needles” sensation. The discomfort ranges from mild to moderate.

FAQ

How does Fraxel work?
The Fraxel laser creates tiny “microthermal” zones (think pixels) deep into the skin which the skin repairs by pushing out the old sun damaged skin (the tiny pixels) and replacing it with new skin. Each treatment replaces about 15-20{765949ff784ef50dbb43dd185334da77072609fc37b12fadd15dd4607f0178c9} of the sun damaged, scarred or wrinkled skin. It triggers the body’s natural healing process accelerating the production of collagen and new, healthy skin cells. 1,000-2,000 microthermal zones per are created each centimeter squared.
That depends on how well you protect your skin from the sun and your genetic aging process. If you apply sunscreen and wear sun protective clothing, your skin will look good longer than if you are tanning, including tanning booths, or spend a lot of time outdoors. If you are careful with your skin, your skin may continue to look good with annual maintenance treatments.
Many people notice results within a week after their first treatment. Their skin feels smoother, looks less blotchy, and has a glow to it. Usually, collagen will continue to develop even up to 3-6 months after your last treatment.
During the procedure you may experience sensations of pulling, tugging, mild pinching, intense cold, tingling, stinging, aching, and cramping at the treatment site. These sensations subside as the area becomes numb.

Following the procedure,you may experience redness or skin sensitivity. These effects are temporary and generally resolve within days or weeks. As with any medical procedure, consult your physician to see if the CoolSculpting procedure is right for you.
