Fraxel is a recently apartment procedure to rejuvenate the skin of the face, using a special apparatus.This procedure is performed using a laser, which acts on the basis of fractional photothermolysis.
This technology punctually affects the skin, damaging its fabric.For this reason, the car process is launched -Gone.All because of the fact that the cells begin to produce hardly collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid.
A characteristic of technology
The main feature of technology is the care of its impact and performance.It is also worth noting that due to the separation of the laser ray in smaller rays, the accuracy of the exposure increases significantly.
Types of fractional photothermis laser
The phototherlysis of the field is divided into 2 types:
- Ablative.The length of its wave is 2,940 nm.This type of radiation is absorbed by the water, therefore the ray affects all levels of the skin.The master can regulate the depth of penetration, which acts on a certain layer, for the maximum effect.
- Not blative.The length of the wave is adjustable from 1,320 to 1,540 Nm.This type of radiation affects deep skin structures, but does not affect the upper layers.Therefore, it occurs to stimulate the production of elastin and collagen and cell exchange improves significantly.For this reason, the skin comes toned, its lethargy and its relaxation are eliminated.
The restoration of the skin occurs faster if exposed to not beautiful.But after ablative, peeling and redness are possible.However, both types have high efficiency.
Variety of Fraksel laser
There are several varieties of Fraxel laser, each of which has its own characteristics.
Fraxel
It is the most common device.The length of its wave is 1,550 Nm and the penetration depth can be tuned from 0.4 to 1.4 mm.It helps to eliminate the pigment stains related to age, acne, solar burns, traces of acne and also fights with the photographic glass of the skin.
Erby Laser
This is a laser that has a wavelength of 1,440 Nm.Of all the models presented, it is the most delicate, therefore it is used in delicate areas of the face and body.It is also advisable to use it for people with thin and sensitive skin.
This model is also allowed on the mammary glands and on the skin of the eyelids.And the recovery period after its use is minimal.
Double King Store

- Erbiye - 1,550 Nm;
- Tulium - 1 927 nm.
This model is used to eliminate scars and scars, deep and small wrinkles, remove pigmentation and removal of the post -acne.
King cid
Of all the models presented is the most aggressive.Therefore, only deep layers of the epidermis are treated.This device can also eliminate deep wrinkles on the face and neck.It also compares with scars and scars.
The benefits or damage from the laser
Advanced technology allows you to evenly influence the necessary skin areas.And thanks to the spared exposure and a small diameter of the elaborate area (70 - 150 mn), there are no scars.Regeneration takes place in the shortest possible time and rarely requires more than a day.
The leather barrier function does not suffer from radiation, so the infection is completely excluded.The laser does not affect the internal organs, acting exclusively on the skin.
Therefore, we can say that the influence of the laser brings significantly more beneficial than damage.

How is the procedure going?
Before the start of the procedure, the master visually evaluates the patient's skin condition, determines the exposure methods, the depth of penetration of laser rays.It also determines how many sessions could be necessary to eliminate a particular problem.
The procedure itself is performed in different phases:
- Using a special composition, the skin is clean and degreased.
- The lidocaine ointment with lidocaine is applied to the areas that will be processed.Wait 40 minutes.This will prevent pain.
- The ointment hit and the skin itself is lubricated with a lubricant.This allows the device to easily slide on the surface of the skin.

They are considered the analog fraxel in terms of effect:
- Term.Although it is an analogue, it is more effective as an additional procedure for Fraxel.
- Nano-perforation.Although it is a more delicate procedure, it is not so effective and the effect remains less time.
- Mesotherapy.Not such an aggressive procedure also has a cheaper cost, but has a much less pronounced effect.
- Point.Combine the effects of radio and laser waves.This procedure has more contraindications.
The similar Fraxel is also Fraxel.However, what is best for him personally, each patient must determine by himself, since the devices are similar from the exposure method.Although Fraxel has expanded the functionality.
Favorable combinations
The greatest effect of the procedure can be obtained by combining it with others.For example, it is advisable to use Plasmolifting or Termage simultaneously with Fraxel.This will help to quickly obtain the desired result and maintain the effect longer.
