Fraxel Laser TreatmentWhat It Is & Why It’s Different
RELIANT FRAXEL® LASER TREATMENT IS A BREAKTHROUGH AESTHETIC SOLUTION BASED ON A NEW SCIENCE OF “FRACTIONAL” SKIN REPAIR.

Fraxel Laser Treatment is a new category of anti-aging skin remodeling that provides the positive results of new-generation skin resurfacing without the downtime and risks associated with traditional abrasive treatment methods.
  • The advanced Fraxel laser treats only a very small fraction of skin at a time without breaking the skin’s protective outer barrier. This is in contrast to traditional resurfacing techniques that remove the entire top layer of damaged skin and are associated with oozing, crusting and a lengthy recovery period.
  • This innovative approach repairs damaged skin by leaving each treatment area surrounded by healthy tissue, promoting rapid healing with minimal negative side effects and no lengthy downtime or need for general anesthesia.
How It Works
FRAXEL® LASER TREATMENT REPAIRS AGING AND SUN-DAMAGED SKIN – PIXEL BY PIXEL, SPOT BY SPOT.

Think of a digital photo that is comprised of thousands of pixels. Now, imagine damaged skin that is delicately repaired, pixel by pixel, spot by spot. That’s the principle behind Fraxel Laser Treatment.
  • The Fraxel laser passes through the top layer of skin like light through glass, reaching into the dermis below to create thousands of tiny, microscopic areas of treatment that stimulate the body’s own collagen building response. This new collagen production then causes the replacement of damaged skin surfaces with new epidermal skin.
  • The penetrating wavelengths of Fraxel Laser Treatment repairs damaged skin, reduces periorbital wrinkles and corrects pigmented lesions such as age spots and sun spots as your skin gradually becomes softer, smoother and fresher.
  • In contrast to other forms of skin resurfacing, Fraxel Laser Treatment is like digital modification that rebuilds a picture, pixel by pixel, by creating new epidermal skin.
Why It Is Better
FRAXEL® LASER TREATMENT PROVIDES PHYSICIANS A GENTLE AND INTELLIGENT TREATMENT APPROACH TO FAST, REMARKABLE RESULTS WITH MINIMAL DOWNTIME AND MAXIMUM SAFETY.
  • Similar to the technique of editing a digital photograph, Fraxel Laser Treatment works on thousands of areas of skin that are so tiny, they are invisible to the naked eye. Each microscopic treatment area remains surrounded by living tissue that is affected by the laser in a special way. Approximately 20 to 25 percent of total skin area is treated with each visit. The fact that the remaining 75 to 80 percent of the patient’s own untreated tissue is stimulated by the laser to rapidly repair the treated areas and produce the overall appearance of natural and healthy looking skin is a novel treatment concept.
  • FLT also reaches deep into the dermis to stimulate collagen remodeling in the skin layers below. In this way, the body’s natural healing process creates new, healthy tissue to replace skin imperfections
