WHAT IS FRAXEL RESTORE?

Fraxel Restore is a non-ablative, fractionated laser that treats the skin’s underlying layer without harming the surface, triggering natural collagen production to create firmer, more youthful skin. A series of Fraxel Restore laser treatments can improve tone, texture, and radiance in aging, scarred, or sun-damaged skin.

AM I A GOOD CANDIDATE FOR THIS TREATMENT?

  • Soften fine lines
  • Smooth skin texture

  • Treat actinic keratosis 
  • Reduce acne scars
  • Diminish age/sun spots
  • Minimize stretch marks

WHAT CAN I EXPECT WITH A FRAXEL RESTORE TREATMENT IN NYC?

Fraxel Restore resurfaces the skin for a more youthful, tighter, and brighter complexion, as well as improves surface scarring. This treatment targets damaged skin with microscopic laser columns that penetrate deeply to stimulate the body’s natural wound healing response and expedite collagen remodeling. As the laser treats only a fraction of tissue at a time, it leaves the surrounding skin intact, which promotes rapid healing. Those who receive a Fraxel Restore treatment will feel a sensation of heat during the procedure; however, to minimize discomfort, a topical anesthetic is applied in advance, and cold air is circulated in the treatment area.

What is the recovery like after Fraxel Restore treatment?

After a Fraxel Restore skin rejuvenation treatment, you may feel minor swelling and redness — almost like you have a sunburn. This usually diminishes in one to three hours. The intensity and duration of your side effects will depend on your healing characteristics as well as the aggressiveness of your treatment. The healing process for your skin can take one to two weeks. During this time, you may experience some redness, swelling, pinpoint bleeding, and sloughing off of the skin. After the sloughing, you may have a rosy glow (pinkness) that remains for several weeks.
