Fraxel is unlike any other rejuvenating skin. Unlike old ablative lasers that remove the top layer of skin, FLT procedure affects the skin surface through the production of thousands of microscopic wounds which penetrate deep into the dermis. These micro-thermal zones “are separated by areas of healthy tissue.

The spared tissue between treatment groups in zones promotes rapid healing of the treated area while stimulating collagen production. Thus, FLT results approach improvements obtained with CO2 laser resurfacing but without the associated side effects and downtime.
