NEW Fraxel Laser Treatment - Dublin
NEW Fraxel Laser Treatments are now available at The Hospital Group's Dublin clinic.
Fraxel laser treatment is revolutionising anti-aging therapies. The results are staggering - treatment can make you look years younger by improving your skintone, texture, colouration and lines with intensive treatment and fast recovery.
Fraxel laser can be used for a varity of treatments with good results. For example:
- Wrinkles and lines - Fraxel is gentle yet effective in improving the signs of ageing, even in delicate areas such as the eyes
- Surgical and acne scars - Fraxel's laser removes damaged surface skin but also penetrates deeply to stimulate collagen production, which boosts skin texture and tone from within. Good results on breast augmentation or blepharoplasty scars
- Age spots / sun spots - Age spots and pigmentation problems respond well to Fraxel treatment
- Acne treatment - Fraxel heals damaged surface skin, while also reaching deeply within the dermis to boost collagen production for healing from within
- Brown spots / pregnancy mask - Uneven and irregular patches of brown skin on the forehead, cheeks, upper lip and nose can be treated with Fraxel laser
- Skin resurfacing - Fraxel's microscopic laser reaches deep into the skin so that the body naturally replaces damaged tissue with fresh, healthy and glowing skin. Texture, colour, pores and tightness all look improved following treatment
- Stretch marks - after pregnancy or weight loss - stretch marks are normally stubborn, but Fraxel lasers can stimulate new collagen growth from within so that stretch marks fill out and look normal again even after only 1 treatment
Fraxel laser treatment can deliver:
- Healthy bright complexion
- Smoother skin with good tone
- Reduction in lines and wrinkles - even in the difficult eye area
- Improvements to scarring
Fraxel can be used on the face and body and is even suitable for delicate areas e.g. hands, face, neck.
A range of treatment options can be selected, which vary in intensity, recovery time, frequency of treatment and results.
About Fraxel Treatment
With state of the art technology, Fraxel treatment targets thousands of microscopic areas of skin. The laser penetrates deeply into the skin as well as working on the surface. This approach eliminates old, damaged skin cells but also crucially triggers the natural production of collagen and new cells, so that skin is effectively regenerated.
To ensure rapid healing and safe treatment, Fraxel is intentionally designed to only target 5-50% of the skin's surface, so that the rest can heal.
When Will I See the Results?
Depending on the treatment plan chosen, most patients will notice an immediate result. This can be really dramatic, with softer and more even skin straightaway, although skin may appear slightly red for the first couple of hours after the treatment. However, you can return to work or normal activities as soon as you like. You only need to avoid make-up for about an hour and be extra-careful with the sun during your course of treatments, as newer skin is more sensitive.
As Fraxel also works within the skin to boost collagen production, there will be a longer term benefit as the body will continue to boost collagen and new skin cell production. The benefits will continue to improve as the deep layers of skin heal.
How Many Treatment Sessions?
This depends on what area we are treating, but you most are a course of 3-5 treatments to build up the optimum result. Repeating the stimulation of collagen allows the skin to resurface and regenerate from deep within.
Frequency could be anywhere between 2-6 weeks.
