What is Fraxel? How does it work?

Fraxel treats uneven pigmentation, acne scars, melasma, brown/age spots, improves skin texture, facial lines and wrinkles, and is one of the most effective procedures for treating the delicate skin areas of the neck, chest, hands and forearms. Fraxel or fractional resurfacing employs a new concept where microscopic points of light pass through the first layer of the skin (stratum corneum) and are deposited among normal, healthy tissue. The Fraxel laser produces tiny, microscopic areas of laser treatment, leaving areas of untouched healthy skin in between. The laser’s uniform microthermal treatment zones (MTZ) penetrates deep up to the depths of 1mm, affecting the epidermal and the dermal tissue.  The coagulated tissue flakes off over a period of 5-7 days. There is no post-op wound care as the skin’s outer layer is left intact, resulting in a little downtime for the patient.

This precise treatment eliminates old, damaged cells and penetrates deep into the inner layer of the dermis to initiate and encourage the body’s own natural healing process. As healing begins, the damaged skin is replaced with fresh skin and new collagen is formed deep in the subsurface layers.
