Fraxel® Skin Resurfacing
Discover the ability to gently but effectively remove the signs of aging and environmental damage with Fraxel®, a non-surgical skin resurfacing procedure that can help you look years younger. Now available at Skin Vitality, Fraxel® can correct wrinkles, pigmented lesions, melasma, acne and surgical scars as well as dramatically improve tone and texture. It is an FDA-cleared treatment that allows you to revitalize your complexion, making your skin look smoother, fresher and more youthful.

The success behind Fraxel® technology is the way in which the device works. The skin in a treated area is exposed to laser energy, but unlike other laser-based skin resurfacing procedures, Fraxel® delivers this energy as microscopic columns which penetrate deeply into the dermis and leave some tissue unaffected. As a result, only a fraction of skin tissue is exposed at any given time, and that is why healing and the recovery process are faster - because only the affected tissue needs to recover from treatment.
What Fraxel® Skin Resurfacing Can Do For You:
- Smooth out fine lines, wrinkles and furrows.
- Improve skin texture
- Erase pigmented lesions such as age or sun spots.
- Address general discolouration.
- Treat redness resulting from photodamage.
- Rejuvenate the eye area, as a non-surgical alternative to cosmetic eyelid surgery (blepharoplasty).
- Eliminate scars resulting from acne, surgery or trauma.
- Target stretchmarks.
Patients are often very happy with the results they achieve.

After Your Treatment
After Fraxel® skin resurfacing, you may experience some short term pinkness, redness and swelling in the treated area which will go away in a couple of hours. Patients may also experience minor itching, peeling/flaking, and dryness. Protect the treated area from sun exposure.
Answers to Common Questions
How is Fraxel® skin resurfacing different?
Because of the following reasons:
- The laser is delivered in microscopic columns, so only some tissue is affected in a targeted area. This allows the treated area to heal faster while still achieving optimum results.
- Suitable for all skin types.
- The technology targets water, rather than pigment, in the skin. This is unlike other methods of laser skin resurfacing. As a result, darker skin won't be at a higher risk for scarring and discolouration.
