In recent years, the cosmetic surgery industry has seen an increase in non-invasive procedures. These procedures require less preparation, minimal recovery, and little to no cutting. Initially, however, patients experienced minimal results as well. Today, patients can expect so much more with all new laser technology that is faster, more targeted and multifunctional. Such innovation exists within the Fraxel:Restore Dual Wavelength system and the Thermage CPT system.

THE FRAXEL RE:STORE DUEL WAVELENGTH SYSTEM
Those seeking to correct problems such as scarring, pigmentation, sun damage, age spots and the like should choose the all-new non-surgical Fraxel Re:store Duel Wavelength system. This brand new resurfacing technology penetrates the surface of the skin and stimulates the growth of new skin and collagen. This procedure is a step ahead of the rest, and it boasts an impressive safety record as well. Doctors have performed more than half a million Fraxel treatments across the world, all of which the FDA has approved for use in aesthetics.

Fraxel Innovations
The advances that lie within the Fraxel:Restore Dual Wavelength system are numerous and highly beneficial. Nine different improvements in the design make Fraxel the obvious choice for smart consumers.

• Improved recovery: With no cutting, scabbing or stitching, this procedure allows patients to experience a shorter recovery time and better results.

• Treats both face and body: Fraxel allows doctors to treat imperfections on both the face and body, including pigmented lesions, acne scars, melasma, mild to moderate periorbital rhytids, surgical scars, actinic keratosis, wrinkles, texture, unwanted pigment, spotting, scars, stretch marks, dystonia, aging, and sun damage.

• Pixilated technology: The pixilated laser enables the device to treat only damaged skin, facilitating less downtime and better overall results.

• Continuous motion tracking system: The continuous motion tracking system generates the safe and uniform results that patients desire.

• Dual handpiece: Previous devices required one surgeon to operate the deep 1550 nm Erbium laser while another operated the superficial 1927 nm Thulium laser. Fraxel’s innovative new handpiece combines both lasers into one piece, requiring the skill of only one aesthetician and allowing for more uniform results.

• Cooling tips: The built-in roller tips cool the treatment area, increasing patient comfort and allowing for a better patient experience.
