Revolutionary Laser for Wrinkles & Scars |
Fraxel Repair Q & A
A few months ago, we introduced Utah to the Fraxel Repair laser, a revolutionary new treatment for wrinkles
and scars. The excitement surrounding this non-invasive procedure has generated many questions. Let’s take a
moment to answer them.
What is different about the new Fraxel Repair laser?
The new Fraxel Repair laser is the only laser with a roller tip to lay down a random array of laser points in the skin.
This new technology gives amazing results with difficult acne scars, “crepey” skin on the eyelids, “chicken skin” on
the neck, and wrinkles on the face, neck and chest. Healing is also faster and safer over similiar treatment with
a CO2 laser peel. The Fraxel Repair laser can even be used to treat wrinkled and scarred skin on non-facial areas
of the body. This is a major advancement in laser treatment of the skin. It’s a patented technology and no other
laser company has it.
Is the Fraxel Repair an FDA-approved treatment?
The Fraxel Repair laser system has received the industry’s only FDA 510(k) clearance for a fractional ablative laser
system for the treatment of wrinkles, furrows, fine lines, textural irregularities, pigmented areas and vascular
discoloration.
Can it be combined with other treatments?
Yes. Fraxel Repair laser treatments can be combined with light facials, chemical peels, filler, skin tightening, and
many of our other procedures to give the best possible result.
How many treatments will I need and how quickly will I see results?
For most people, maximum results are realized in just one treatment. The Fraxel Repair treatment was
specifically engineered to enable you to tailor the treatment to your particular needs. If you have deep,
severe sun damage, we may treat the skin more aggressively, which can mean up to 2 weeks of social
downtime. A more gentle treatment with less downtime is also available to those with mild sun
and skin damage. No matter your situation, Fraxel Repair treatment can create remarkable
results without the prolonged recovery time and complications of other procedures.
