RESULTS YOU CAN SEE AND FEEL

Fraxel Restore DUAL system (1927nm and 1550nm wavelengths)

The technology behind Fraxel treatment is as revolutionary as the results it can deliver.

Unlike other laser treatments, Fraxel treatment is able to precisely treat thousands of microscopic areas of skin, using pinpoint laser beams that penetrate beneath the skin's surface to eliminate old, damaged skin cells.

Fraxel treatment stimulates the body's own natural healing process which replaces damaged skin with fresh, glowing, healthy skin.

Fraxel can treat the following:

  • Wrinkles around the eye
  • Age and sun spots
  • Brown spots and melasma
  • Acne scars and surgical scars
  • Stretch marks
  • Skin resurfacing


Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fraxel?

Fraxel ® treatments use safe, fractional laser technology to treat minor to severe skin damage, such as age or sun spots, wrinkles and other signs of aging. Depending on your needs, Fraxel treatment can help prevent the signs of aging, resurface damaged skin or correct severe damage.


How does it work?

Fraxel treatment uses patented fractional technology to target damaged skin with microscopic laser columns that penetrate deep into the skin. The laser treats only a fraction of tissue at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact, which promotes rapid healing. This stimulates your body��s own natural healing process, replacing the old and damaged cells with fresh, glowing, healthy skin.


How long is the treatment?

Depending on the size, location and condition of the area to be treated, Fraxel treatment can take as little as 20 minutes. However, we ask that you reserve at least 2 hours for your appointment.


How many treatments will I need?

The number of treatments you will need depends on your goals and desired outcomes as well as your lifestyle. We will work with you to weigh the aggressiveness of treatment with the downtime associated. Typically, patients receive their desired outcomes in 3-6 treatments.


Who can be treated with the Fraxel laser?

Can you treat parts of the body? Fraxel lasers treat women and men of all ages and skin colour. Fraxel treatment also works on delicate skin areas like the neck, chest and hands.

When do the results appear, and how long do they last?
