Fraxel treatment is a revolutionary laser treatment that helps you to remove years from your appearance. Fraxel is the pioneer of fractional photothermolysis, a technology in which thousands of microscopic laser columns each just one-tenth the diameter of a hair follicle treat a fraction of the skin at a time without affecting the surrounding tissue. These laser columns stimulate the production of younger, smoother, healthier skin to replace damaged tissue.

Fraxel Re:pair has been approved by the FDA to improve the appearance of wrinkles, including those on the sensitive areas around the eyes. Fraxel treatment is different because it treats one fraction of tissue at a time with thousands of microscopic laser columns. These columns stimulate a natural healing process that works from the inside out, expediting the production of collagen & elastin, which results in tighter, fresher, more youthful-looking skin.
The unique fractional technology is so precise, Fraxel treatment can resurface skin on & off the face, even on delicate areas like the chest, neck & hands. In addition to wrinkles, scars, age spots & melasma, Fraxel treatment can resurface these conditions:

-What is Fraxel re:pair treatment?
-How does Fraxel re:pair treatment work?
Like some other ablative procedures, Fraxel re:pair laser treatment uses a high-intensity carbon dioxide (CO2) laser to vaporize unwanted tissue. But unlike other ablative procedures, Fraxel re:pair treatment uses fractional technology to deliver dramatic results with dramatically faster recovery timeall in a single treatment. Fraxel re:pair treatment uses thousands of microscopic laser columns to penetrate deep into the skin and remove old, damaged skin cells. This stimulates your bodys own natural healing process, which replaces the cells with fresh, glowing, healthy skin. Because the technology is so precise, Fraxel re:pair treatment works not only on the face, but also on delicate skin areas like the neck, chest and hands.
-How is Fraxel re:pair treatment different from Fraxel re:store treatment?
Both Fraxel re:pair treatment and Fraxel re:store treatment use fractional technology, but in different ways. As an ablative procedure, Fraxel re:pair treatment uses a carbon dioxide (CO2) laser to vaporize microscopic columns of tissue deep within the skin. Fraxel re:pair treatment is the more agressive procedure and is used to treat the most severe skin damage, results are achieved in a single treatment and involves wound care recovery time is generally longer than other Fraxel treatments. Fraxel re:store treatment, on the other hand, is a non-ablative technique that intensively treats older skin cells while leaving the skins protective barrier intact, this results in less downtime and need for post-treatment wound care.

Clinical studies suggest that for most people, maximum results are realized in just one treatment. The Fraxel re:pair treatment was specifically engineered to enable your physician to tailor the treatment to your particular needs. If you have deep, severe sun damage, your physician may treat the skin more aggressively, which can mean a week of downtime.

First, your skin will be cleansed. Then, 60 to 90 minutes prior to treatment, a topical numbing agent will be applied to the treatment area. Your physician may also choose to give you another medication, such as Ativan, to relax you. Most patients describe an increased sensation of heat during the treatment, and there may be some discomfort or pain. However, unlike the experience in traditional CO2 treatments, you will feel quite comfortable immediately after a Fraxel re:pair treatment.
