Fraxel Laser treatment is a non-invasive treatment that can boost collagen and remove imperfections on the skin. It targets pigmented lesions such as age spots, rosacea, melasma, and sun damage. It treats these issues by improving the collagen and elastin content to give the skin a smoother and younger look.

Fraxel laser treatment reduces the signs of aging while maintaining skin luminosity, suppleness, and elasticity. An example is Fraxel Treatment, where they reduce the signs of aging. It is a non-invasive method that can be performed under local anesthesia in a sterile chamber.

Fraxel Laser Treatment How It Works
Fraxel laser treatment is based on photodynamic therapy in which the laser energy strikes the skin causing damage to the melanin in the skin. Medical Aesthetic Center in New Jersey provides Fraxel laser treatment. The heat generated by this heating destroys the protein, cell membranes, and blood vessels within the targeted area, resulting in collagen breakdown. Collagen is essential for elasticity and firmness; therefore, it causes collagen deficiency, leading to increased wrinkles when collagen is destroyed. Once collagen becomes too few, it becomes fragile and gives an aged appearance to the skin.

Types of Fraxel Laser
Fraxel Laser is available in three types: Fraxel Dual Treatment, Fraxel Re: pair, and Fraxel Re: store. All three treatments use the same technology but with different settings for skin rejuvenation.

Fraxel Dual Treatment
Fraxel Dual Treatment contains a top layer of Fraxel Re: pair, a precise lightning agent that uses a dual-wavelength light. It is commonly used to treat melasma, sun damage, and pigmented lesions.

To make sure the Fraxel treatment does not break down collagen as easily as Fibroblast Fraction 8, doctors will apply this gel over the treated area before you leave the clinic.

Fraxel Repair
With Fraxel Repair, the Fraxel laser will be set to a pulse width of 20ms. It is commonly used to treat melasma and sun damage due to repeated sun exposure or aging.

The Fraxel laser light setting depends on the area of the face showing signs of aging and sun damage. The appropriate setting can be found by a qualified Doctor applying gentle pressure with their finger over the treated area.

Fraxel Restore
Fraxel Restore is a non-ablative treatment that uses a longer pulse width of 40ms to deliver intensive light energy to the skin. It is commonly used to treat rosacea and sun damage due to intense sun exposure or aging.

As a result of damaged collagen and elastin from sun exposure, aging, and other damages, the skin becomes wrinkled and vulnerable to damage. Fraxel Laser treatment is a non-invasive procedure that stimulates collagen production in the skin to reverse the signs of aging. It can be a great anti-aging treatment for those with a busy lifestyle who might not have the time to spare for a surgeon-operated dermal filler or injections. Call us today to book an appointment!
