The Fraxel® laser combines fractional laser technology, which targets specific areas of the skin, and laser resurfacing technology to rejuvenate the skin. Fraxel laser treatment is precise and effective at treating a range of skin conditions, from fine lines and wrinkles to age spots and blemishes. It does so by utilizing the skin’s natural healing process to stimulate new cell growth and collagen production. Keep reading to learn more about how you can unlock the power of the Fraxel laser to reduce the appearance of wrinkles.

How Does the Fraxel Laser Reduce Wrinkles?

The Fraxel laser utilizes the fractional component of the laser to target specific areas of the face, which prevents unnecessary damage to surrounding tissue. At the same time, the laser’s light energy addresses skin concerns and energizes the cells. This stimulates cell turnover, meaning the top layer of skin will shed, revealing brighter, younger-looking skin. Meanwhile, the laser also increases collagen production, which plays an important role in preventing signs of aging. Collagen production will continue to improve in the weeks and months following your treatment, minimizing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Benefits of Fraxel Laser Treatment

The Fraxel laser treatment offers several advantages to patients:

• Noninvasive: This noninvasive treatment is ideal for providing results without surgery for patients apprehensive about having a surgical procedure.
• No downtime or recovery needed: Since the Fraxel laser is noninvasive, there is no downtime or recovery needed. Patients can return to their normal routine following treatment.
• Precision: The Fraxel laser utilizes precise laser beams to target areas of concern, preventing damage to surrounding tissue.
• Address multiple skin concerns: Fraxel laser treatment is beneficial for addressing multiple areas of concern on the face and body. Some examples include scar tissue, blemishes, hyperpigmentation, fine lines and wrinkles, age spots, and more.

How Soon Will You See the Results?

Results from your Fraxel laser treatment can be immediate; however, due to the continued production of collagen in your skin, improvements may continue to develop over the following two to three months.
