Our Services: Fraxel
Fraxel is a safe, non-invasive, non-ablative procedure that allows you to rediscover the fresh, healthy skin of your youth.
Fraxel laser treatment is designed to target aging and damaged skin by creating microscopic "wounds" within the targeted areas that penetrate well beneath the skin’s outermost layer.
In this way, Fraxel laser treatments trigger the body's own natural production of new collagen and skin cells. And because Fraxel combines the impact of ablative laser with the gentleness of non-ablative lasers, healing occurs so quickly that there is very little downtime for patients. |
