Fraxel Re:pair®
Fraxel is a group of revolutionary laser treatments that improve the appearance of the skin for a younger, rejuvenated look using laser energy delivered to the skin in a fractional pattern. While there are several different types of Fraxel treatments, Fraxel Re:pair is the most aggressive form, using CO2 laser energy to provide dramatic results for even the most severely damaged skin. These results can be achieved in just one short treatment session. Dr. Rostan was the first doctor in the Southeast to offer this treatment and her patients have had amazing results.
The laser vaporizes tiny columns of skin, stimulating the body’s natural skin cell and collagen regenerative responses. Skin tightening can occur as wound healing tightens and closes the vaporized columns of tissue. Because of the microscopic laser impact, there is minimal damage to surrounding healthy tissue, allowing for rapid healing. The risks of ablative laser resurfacing are markedly reduced because the Fraxel Re:pair® only treats a small portion of the skin surface and the micro wounds are sealed after 48 hours.
Recovery from Fraxel Re:pair
Following Fraxel treatment, patients may feel as though their skin is sunburned for about an hour after the procedure. Skin healing will occur in 4-7 days. Most patients can return to work and other regular activities about a week after treatment. We will give you specific instructions for recovery after your Fraxel Re:pair treatment.
Results of Fraxel Re:pair
Unlike many other skin repair procedures, Fraxel Re:pair can be performed in a single treatment session. The results of this procedure are visible immediately after treatment, and will continue to improve as side effects subside and the treatment progresses. Most patients experience full results three to six months after treatment as the deeper layers of the skin heal. With full results, patients can often enjoy:
- Improved skin tone and texture
- Smaller pore size
- Reduced appearance of acne scars, age spots and brown spots
- Smoothed wrinkles and lines around the eyes
- Rejuvenated skin on the chest, neck and hands
