FRACTIONAL ACTIVE FX™
Our skin changes over time, losing its youthful look and giving way to brown spots, wrinkles, and laxity. Fractional ActiveFX™, the result of the latest advances in laser technology, is a new procedure that yields remarkable, long lasting results with just one treatment.
Fractional Resurfacing Procedure
During an ActiveFx™ fractional resurfacing procedure, a high-energy beam of laser light interacts with the skin’s surface, causing the upper layer to peel off and regenerate a layer of new, healthy skin. With ActiveFX™, only a fraction of the skin’s surface is treated. The laser beam is applied in a fractional pattern, leaving small “bridges” of untouched skin. This technique makes the healing process much faster and enables you to get back to normal activities sooner. The face takes approximately one week to heal and the neck and chest two weeks.Results of treatment are long-term and, with proper sun protection, can last for many years. Most effects of treatment become visible right away, whereas others, such as new collagen formation, build up gradually and results in continued smoothing over time.
