Fractionated laser therapy
Fraxel Dual is a non-ablative laser, so treatment is more gentle than laser resurfacing. The device sends columns of light into deep skin layers. The energy heats tissues, creating microscopic thermal columns that trigger the body’s natural healing processes. As new, healthy cells build on the inside, you see beautiful results on the outside. Fresh collagen tones and firms skin, fills lines, and smooths wrinkles.Surrounding skin is intact and unharmed, for speedy recovery. Healing time is typically three days or less.Each type of laser has specific applications. It takes a great deal of advanced training and experience to guide a patient to the best treatment choice for his or her specific skin type, appearance concern, lifestyle, and budget.
