how Fraxel® treatment works

The technology behind Fraxel treatment is as

revolutionary as the results it can deliver. unlike other

laser treatments, Fraxel treatment is able to precisely treat

thousands of microscopic areas of skin, using pinpoint

laser beams that penetrate beneath the skin’s surface

to eliminate old, damaged skin cells. Fraxel treatment

stimulates the body’s own natural healing process which

replaces damaged skin with fresh, glowing, healthy skin.

Your personalized Fraxel treatment plan

Your skin is unique – your genetic make-up, lifestyle and

personal history all contribute to how your skin looks and

feels. With Fraxel treatment, your physician can develop a

treatment plan tailored to your skin’s individual needs.

Bydesign,FraxelTreatmentscantargetbetween

approximately 5 to 50 percent of the skin’s surface,

leaving the remaining 50 to 95 percent available to quickly

heal the treated areas. Since Fraxel treatment is so precise,

it’s safe and effective on delicate skin areas like the neck,

chest and hands, in addition to the face. You can expect two

levels of results, immediate and progressive. immediately

after initial healing is complete, the surface of your skin will

feel softer, look brighter, and tone will start to become even.

progressive results occur over the next three to six months as

the deeper layers of skin continue to heal.

You do a lot to look and feel great, finding

the time to enjoy life to the fullest while still

taking care of your body. Yet, the effects of

keeping your skin from looking as good as you

feel. The solution is here - Fraxel treatment.

Defining a new standard for aesthetic laser skin treatment

The industry standard for effective skin resurfacing with minimal downtime

as the original fraxel® laser system, the Fraxel re:store laser

is the accepted gold standard for non-ablative fractional

resurfacing. effective, safe and predictable, the laser delivers

dramatic results for all skin types, on and off the face – with

minimal disruption to patients’ daily routine.

Remarkable results. Unparalleled versatility.

the Fraxel re:store laser was engineered to treat across a

variety of conditions, on all skin types and anywhere on the

body. Since it delivers predictable epidermal turnover with each

treatment, nearly all patients see immediate improvement. and

due to collagen remodeling, those results are enhanced over

weeks and months.

Gold Standard for treating acne scars

When it comes to acne scars, Fraxel re:store treatment succeeds

where other procedures have failed. only the Fraxel re:store

laser can remove the damaged epidermal tissue and reach up

to 1.4 mm into the deep into the dermis to stimulate collagen

remodeling. all while keeping healthy tissue intact for minimal

discomfort or downtime.

Clinical Excellence

there’s a reason that more than 500,000 fraxel laser

treatments have been performed worldwide … and counting.

it’s because fraxel laser treatment, as the original fractional

system, has an unparalleled record of research, fDa clearances

and proven results.

Wavelength. the mid-infrared

1550 nm fraxel laser targets the high

water content in both the epidermal

and dermal tissue. in contrast the

stratum corneum is left in tact.

Intelligent Optical Tracking® System. the technology adjusts to hand speed and

ensures uniform treatment, distributing pulses evenly while maintaining optimal spacing

to reduce heat. the result is treatment that’s safe, effective and fast, with a full-face

treatment typically completed in 20-25 minutes.

Ergonomic roller tip. the handpiece enables a gliding hand motion and a

consistent treatment pattern.

Intuitive touch-screen interface. the

easy-to-navigate system requires only 3

settings to control depth, density and total

energy delivered.

Safety. the laser fires only when there

is a relative motion between the skin and

the handpiece and when the footswitch is

engaged. and to prevent overtreatment,

the number of microscopic treatment

zones (MtZs) is matched to the speed of

application. this built-in safety and ease of

use make the Fraxel re:store system a more

flexible option for your practice that can

be safely delegated.

Single pass burn pattern shows uneven pulse energy delivered from center to periphery. This occurs because all spots are delivered in one single pulse through a lens array.

Multiple pass pattern with circular stamping handpiece shows areas of high density combined with areas of low density leading to uneven, non-uniform treatment.

sTamping Handpiece

Single pass burn pattern shows even distribution of pulse energy due to the Fraxel laser’s ability to precisely deliver each individual spot one at a time.

Multiple pass pattern with continuous motion IOTS scanning shows a random distribution of spots leading to uniform treatment.

Optimized spot size based on chosen parameters. the system optimizes the

microscopic spot size for each energy level, maximizing penetration while minimizing bulk

heating in surrounding tissue. as a result, patients have almost no discomfort or minimal

downtime, and there is very low risk of post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (piH).

accelerated clearance of pigment:

thulium wavelength more effectively

targets superficial skin layers.

More comfortable procedure:

Superficial targeting of the thulium

wavelength and focal cooling improves

patient comfort.

Faster treatment times: improved

scanner design increases procedure

speed by 25%.

Also incorporates all the benefits of fraxel re:store:
