What is Fraxel re:store® Dual?
Fraxel re:store® 1550/1927 DUAL Wavelength System, is the premier Fraxel system for non-ablative skin resurfacing and rejuvenation, providing superior results for the face and large body areas in a single treatment. Advantages of Dual laser treatments effectively target both the surface and deeper layers of the skin. Prior to the Fraxel re:store® DUAL Wavelength System, laser skin resurfacing procedures were largely limited to the face. The Fraxel DUAL takes the industries leading fractional laser technology to the next level by adding a novel 1927 nm wavelength, the first ever application of a Thulium laser in the aesthetics market, optimized for treatment of pigmentation and other superficial skin conditions.
Fraxel re:store® DUAL Wavelength System is engineered to treat a variety of conditions, correcting imperfections on all skin types and anywhere on the body with dramatic results and predictable recovery.
With a great safety record, this laser is the most advanced alternative to plastic surgery with minimal disruption to the patients' daily routine. With new technology this non-ablative treatment can achieve results comparable to superficial fractional CO2 treatments without the risks, discomfort and prolonged downtime.
"We can now successfully treat areas that were previously off limits—like the neck, chest, hands, and back."
There are many options from chemical peels and dermabrasion to plastic surgery. But unlike other remedies that scrape, peel and cut the surface of your skin, Fraxel laser treatment safely, gently and effectively resurfaces your skin from the inside out.
How Does It Work?
Pioneered by Fraxel engineers in 2001, Fraxel laser treatments affect a fraction of tissue at a time with thousands of microscopic laser columns which penetrate deep into the dermis to create tiny wounds, triggering your body's natural response system to heal those wounds working from the inside out, replacing damaged tissue with healthier skin. This process expedites your body's remodeling of collagen and elastin, which results in tighter, fresher, more youthful-looking skin.
Just as important are the areas of skin that Fraxel treatment doesn't touch. Because the treatment is so precise, the laser columns target only a fraction of skin at a time, leaving the surrounding tissue intact. This "fractional" treatment allows your body to heal the skin faster than if the entire area were treated at once.
