THE TECHNOLOGY:
For decades groups of physicians, scientists and engineers have been racing to develop a machine that can produce obvious improvement in the tone and texture of the skin without committing the patient to weeks or even months of down time. Well, the manufacturers of the Fraxel laser succeeded.
With every treatment the Fraxel laser produces thousands or even millions of microscopic wounds right underneath the top layers of skin. The spared skin in between the columns of treatment supplies the cells for very rapid healing--within days! Aside from a day or two of redness and some swelling, there is virtually no down time. Woman and men are able to return to work almost immediately.
