As a person ages, their collagen production begins to decline, which leads to a gradual breakdown of the skin’s underlying support structure. Daily exposure to the sun’s ultraviolet rays and other elements can cause the skin to become discolored and premature wrinkles may start to show.
The Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser treatment eliminates fine wrinkles, acne scars and brown spots as well as tightening and rejuvenating the skin. This innovative treatment method can reverse early signs of facial aging and restore a fresh youthful look to your skin. Most patients say they look five to 10 years younger after a series of 3 or 4 procedures. These effects can last years after treatment as long as good techniques in skin protection and an overall healthy skin care regimen are regularly practiced.
The innovative design of the Fraxel Dual™ Laser takes fractional resurfacing to new heights. The Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser optimizes traditional treatments by introducing non-ablative columns into the tissue. Because the laser beam has been fractionized, small areas of untreated skin will be left between the treated spots. This promotes rapid and long-term collagen remodeling while minimizing pain for the patient. It maximizes the convenience factor as well, since less time is typically spent in the doctor’s office. A Fraxel laser procedure usually takes less than 30 minutes to perform. Results will continue to improve long after treatment as the collagen reforms itself.
The Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser is fast, effective and efficient. Each pulse of energy removes a column of tissue. As tissue removal occurs, deep heating stimulates and promotes collagen realignment. Treatments with the Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser will improve your skin’s strength and elasticity and will result in a smoother, tighter texture and pigmentation problems will begin to disappear.
The sensations felt during the laser skin resurfacing treatment vary from patient to patient. Most patients will experience a warm, sharp feeling and a quick tightening of the skin. When the treatment is complete, many patients look and feel as if they have minor sunburn for 2 to 3 days on average. Anesthetic and/or cooling treatments may be used to reduce any pain during and after the procedure.
There are a wide range of treatment options offered by the Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser. The treating physician has precise control over the settings including size, shape, density and duration, allowing the treatment to be tailored to the specific needs of each patient. All patients are not the same; therefore, the pulse duration is adjustable. This provides doctors with the ability to safely control the amount of skin coagulation. Unlike older CO2 treatments, which caused significant scarring and sores, fractional lasers leave surrounding tissue unaffected. This allows the skin to heal much more quickly and reduces recovery time considerably.
Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser skin resurfacing is a safe and effective procedure for almost any skin type but it is best for fair or light skin tones. All parts of the face age at the same time, therefore it is normal that the Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser treatment will typically be applied to the entire face and neck area at one time. However, a focus is often placed on the loose skin around the eyes, in order to reduce fine lines and wrinkles in this especially susceptible area. The Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser can also be applied to most areas of the body to achieve tightening and rejuvenation. Brown spots on the back on the hands or upper chest are common requests
If you are unhappy with the appearance of your skin, the Fraxel re:store Dual™ Laser treatment may be the right choice for you. Long term results, in addition to minimal or no down time after treatment, make this the perfect solution for many patients who want a more youthful look.
“Wonderful experience. Dr. Goldman is clearly very experienced and a wealth of knowledge. He spent a lot of time going over my concerns, more than most doctors offer. I felt at ease knowing he has been in the “business” for a long time and is very knowledgeable. Plus— he didn’t push any products on me. You can tell he runs the practice with integrity. 100% recommend.” - Kali-Ray S.
