Fraxel treatment, affects a fraction of tissue at a time with thousands of microscopic laser columns — each just one-tenth the diameter of a hair follicle. These microscopic laser columns penetrate deep into the dermis to create tiny wounds, which trigger your body’s natural response system to heal those wounds. This process expedites your body’s remodeling of collagen and elastin, which results in tighter, fresher, more youthful-looking skin. This is how Fraxel treatment creates new skin from the inside out.
Just as important are the areas of skin that Fraxel treatment doesn’t touch. Because the treatment is so precise, the laser columns target only a fraction of skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This unique fractional technology spares much of the surrounding healthy tissue in the demis. This results in immediate coagulation, tissue shrinkage and skin tightening – in summary it replaces damaged tissue with new, younger, smoother, healthier skin.
Regardless of the level of sun damage you have, or if you just want prevention and maintenance, the CO2 Fraxel will frankly just knock off 10-15 yrs. of your appearance so that you look younger, rested and refreshed.No wonder it is called – “The nonsurgical facelift”.
