Fraxel® Laser Treatment in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale

In South Florida, our wonderful climate and beautiful surroundings tempt us to spend as much time outdoors as possible. Unfortunately, the enjoyment and health benefits we get from our activities come with a price as most people, men included, eventually develop areas of problem skin on their face, neck, chest and hands. Many of these areas may not be good candidates for a surgical procedure, but the problem skin can be nonetheless depressing.

Benefits of Fraxel® Laser Treatment

In just a few sessions, this technology can:

• Smooth areas of fine lines and wrinkles
• Shrink enlarged pores and improve skin texture and tone
• Eliminate brown spots
• Reduce acne scars

The laser treatment involves minimal pain and downtime.

The Method

When you come in for your consultation, your physician will evaluate your skin and develop a treatment plan that will yield the results you’re looking for. Since the laser treatment targets a percentage of your skin at a time, you’ll need to come in for a few sessions spaced a few weeks apart. A typical patient may have three to five sessions within a six to twelve week period. You’ll see results right away, and dramatic changes will appear over the next few months.

The treatment can be performed in our offices in Miami and Ft. Lauderdale with just a topical anesthetic in most cases. After your visit, you’ll feel a sensation similar to a mild sunburn and your skin will develop a slight pinkish cast for a few days. You can expect some flaking to occur, and some patients develop temporary swelling. These are signs that healing is taking place deep within the tissues. Overall discomfort is usually mild, and many people can return to normal activities the same day they have their treatment.

The Technology

Fraxel® Laser Treatment trains thousands of tiny laser spots on your skin, sending treatment deep into the dermis. It eliminates old cells and leaves surrounding tissue intact. By affecting just a fraction of your skin at one time, the laser allows the area to heal much faster than it would with a method that treats a large area of skin all at once. Fresh, tighter tissue emerges quickly to replace old, tired skin.
