FRAXEL
How much will my skin hurt?
The procedure is comfortable due to a numbing topical applied beforehand. The skin can be mildly sore for the first 24 hours after the procedure, however this is variable and some clients report no pain.
How long will my skin be red?
The skin is usually very red for two days and then fades, however it is still quite red for 7-10 days after the procedure. Makeup can be applied at the 48 hour mark to cover this.
How long will the effect last?
Results are variable between individuals but Fraxel is considered one of the longest-lasting laser procedures on the market, with some clients reporting years of smoother, fresher-looking skin.
How many Fraxel treatments will I need?
The number of treatments depends on the desired outcome and condition treated. We recommend three treatments for acne scars and for maximized wrinkle and fine line reduction. Tone and colour correction can be achieved with fewer treatments than this.
Fraxel is a scientifically advanced treatment that harnesses sophisticated technology to help achieve smoother, younger skin that lasts for years. It is the most powerful laser technology for reducing fine lines and wrinkles, smoothing skin texture and reducing tone differences in the skin. It is also hands-down the best treatment for acne scars.
Fraxel is a fractional laser, meaning it delivers tiny columns of laser energy into the skin. These columns are spread out and surrounded by skin that’s left untouched. These small treated areas then trigger the production of collagen and new cell growth all over the skin. It is this new collagen and cell growth that confers a lasting youthful texture and glow to the skin.
Being the most powerful restorative laser treatment, Fraxel requires social downtime. Your face will be red and swollen for 7-10 days. Makeup can be applied at 48 hours after the procedure.
Included in the price is a two week Alumier hydroquinone topical to be applied prior to the procedure to maximize results, and an Alumier aftercare kit consisting of several topicals to aid healing.
The procedure itself is comfortable because of the topical numbing applied, which is also included in the price.
