Methods of Fractional Laser Resurfacing include the following technologies:

Fraxel is unique because of how the treatment actually does what it does. The laser produces thousands of tiny localized treatments known as MicroThermal Zones. These zones are what define an area that will undergo alteration and an area that will remain untouched. During the process, collagen and elastin are regenerated and about 20% of the skin is resurfaced with each session.

What makes Fraxel special is its ability to bypass healthy, living skin cells and touch only those cells that require re-growth. This level of precision makes the procedure safe, reliable and worth the big bucks it's going cost. The "fractional" treatment area is what makes the healing process work so quickly. Instead of the body facing a large portion of skin to re-grow, it can focus on smaller areas.

Fraxel is FDA cleared for periorbital wrinkles, pigmented lesions, Melasma, soft tissue coagulation, acne scars and surgical scars, actinic Keratoses

ActiveFX is a fractional laser procedure performed in a single treatment with minimal patient downtime. During the procedure, a high-energy beam of laser light is used to smooth out lines, wrinkles and scars, remove brown spots and other irregularities, and tighten the skin. It also stimulates formation of new underlying collagen to continue improvement over time.

With fractional laser treatment, only a fraction of the skin's surface is treated by the laser, leaving small "bridges" of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much faster and enables you to get back to normal activities sooner.

Transform Your Patients, Transform Your Practice�with DOT Therapy!

The SmartXide DOT� laser with DOT Therapy� is ideal for the treatment of dyschromia, skin laxity and texture, wrinkles, dermal lesions, photoaging, acne scarring and scar reduction.

SmartXide Dot Therapy is a revolutionary laser skin resurfacing method that has recently been approved by the FDA for use in the United States. Like traditional laser resurfacing, SmartXide Dot uses a CO2 (carbon dioxide) laser to reduce such things as wrinkles, acne scars, redness and sun damage. But what sets SmartXide Dot apart from traditional resurfacing methods is its unique ability to treat specific areas within a target zone, as opposed to the entire face, using a new technology that splits the laser beam into fine micro beams. This results in faster healing and no downtime for the patient. In fact, patients can apply make-up directly following a SmartXide Dot treatment. An added benefit of the SmartXide Dot method is that skin is tightened up to 20 percent, and can actually be seen tightening during the procedure. Full results are typically noticed within two to four treatment sessions, held two to four weeks apart. Improvements should continue to be seen for six months following the final session.

Used for Treating:

* Fine Lines and Wrinkles * Deeper Lines * Acne * Rosacea * Acne Scarring * Ageing Skin

Palomar Fractional

The Palomar LUX 1540 Fractional Laser Handpiece delivers light in an array of high precision microbeams. These microbeams create narrow, deep columns of tissue coagulation that penetrate well below the epidermis and into the dermis, while sparing the tissue surrounding the columns from damage.

The Palomar LUX 1540 microbeams penetrate deeper (up to 1 mm) than other devises. These deep columns of coagulated tissue initiate a natural healing process that accelerates the formation of new, healthy tissue to fill in the damaged treatment zones; the deeper the columns, the more new tissue. Coagulated collagen and cellular debris is expelled as skin is resurfaced. Throughout the process, the integrity of the top layer of skin is maintained, which protects the tissue from infection as it heals.

Skin resurfacing with the Pixel is a gradual process that happens over several treatments, usually 3-5 sessions at 2-4 week intervals.
