Fraxel Laser

The original fractional skin resurfacing treatment.

What is a Fraxel Laser?

Fraxel is a non-invasive laser treatment which improves the appearance of aging and damaged skin with minimal discomfort and quick results.

The Fraxel laser induces collagen renewal, improves tone and texture, treats Melasma, reduces fine lines, wrinkles, age spots, sun spots and brown spots, and improves the appearance of acne or surgical scars.

Fraxel is the original and patented fractional laser technology that works on two wavelengths to treat both superficial and deep conditions, resulting in smoother, fresher, younger-looking skin.
