Below is all you need to know about Fraxel treatment to avoid the intimidation of the procedure from a far sight of view.
Fraxel Laser Treatment
It is a laser-based light treatment used to smooth out the skin concerns such as scars and fine lines. However, it is also used to correct the following:
- Highly effective in scar minimization for postoperative scar reduction.
- Used to remove unwanted pigmentations such as sunspots, brown spots, aging spots, and other hyperpigmentation.
- Help to reduce visible pore size and improve overall skin tone and texture.
- It rejuvenates the skin, so it looks healthier, younger, fresher, and less dull.
- Reduces fine lines, wrinkles, and imperfections.
- Minimizes acne scarring.
How Fraxel Works
With Fraxel treatment, the damaged cells immediately start to regenerate. Your skin repairs itself by pushing out the older, controlled-damaged skin, and replacing it with new skin.
During the treatment period, it is therefore important to avoid:
- Active skincare products and sun exposure.
- Touching your eyes and using unfresh linens and washes.
- Getting skin infections and breakouts.
The Fraxel treatment triggers the natural healing process of your body to accelerate the production of collagen and new healthy skin cells. After the healing process, you will be able to achieve healthier and younger-looking skin.
Before Treatment
Before treatment, your skin needs to be in perfect condition. You may be required to stop using other treatments such as waxing and laser hair removal on the area to be treated.
It would be best if you also stopped using active products such as retinol weeks before treatment. Your Fraxel specialist may also recommend eating a healthy diet and avoiding caffeine before treatment to sustain you throughout the process.
Procedure
Always keep time on the day of the procedure as your physician may apply numbing cream on the affected area.
Also, dress comfortably and avoid makeup since the process requires you to be all-natural.
If your face is affected, the actual treatment may take up an hour, while it takes less than an hour in other areas. However, after treatment, you may experience the sensation of Fraxel differently.
After Treatment
After Fraxel treatment, your skin may feel sunburned. Therefore, your physician may recommend the following aftercare to help you achieve perfect glowing skin without imperfections:
- Avoid exposing your skin to the sun to prevent redness.
- Cover up residuals with makeup.
- Moisturize your skin with the right moisturizer to prevent the appearance of dry, flaky skin.
- Avoid scratching if your skin itches.
- Clean your hands regularly, use a fresh pillowcase, and fresh washers.
